Call for Social Workers & Volunteers

Join GGIF in Protecting India’s Children and Vulnerable Communities

The Good Governance India Foundation (GGIF) is launching a major national initiative addressing one of India’s most urgent public-safety and public-health crises — the growing threat posed by stray dog attacks on children, women, the elderly, sanitation workers, and daily-wage earners.

India now records over 10,000 dog bites every day and the highest number of rabies deaths in the world , a tragedy that disproportionately affects those who lack agency, access, and voice.

We believe every child deserves safe streets , and no parent should fear letting their child play or walk to school. To make this mission a reality, we are assembling a network of social workers, volunteers, field coordinators, and community mobilisers across India.

Who We Are Looking For :

GGIF invites individuals who are :

Compassionate and committed to protecting human rights

Skilled in community outreach , fieldwork , or documentation

Able to collect victim stories , verify incidents, and support affected families

Willing to work with slum communities, labour settlements, schools, and clinics

Comfortable with basic digital reporting (WhatsApp, forms, photos, geotagging)

Motivated to strengthen a national movement for child safety, dignity, and justice

Both professionals (social workers, counsellors, public-health graduates) and citizen volunteers are welcome.

What Volunteers Will Do :

Document and report verified stray-dog attacks

Support parents and victims in accessing legal help

Assist in collecting data for public-interest litigation

Advocacy for change in legal, policy and local government practices

Fundraising from those who can afford to pay

Operational and legal guidance will be provided.

Why Your Role Matters :

Dog-lover organisations are well-funded and organised.

Victims are not.

Children, especially those in poorer communities, suffer in silence.

Your work will ensure that their stories are heard , their rights upheld, and their suffering no longer ignored.

This is not a campaign against animals — it is a movement for children, for safety, for justice .
