BELGO-INDIAN VILLAGE RECONSTRUCTION ORGANISATION

Situering De Indische NGO Village Reconstruction Organisation werd in 1971 opgericht door de Belgische jezuïet Michael Windey. Toen hij Gandhi ontmoette, en hem vroeg hoe hij zich in India nuttig kon maken, sprak Gandhi hem over het belang van de dorpsgemeenschap. Goede uitgebouwde, economisch en vooral ook sociaal gezonde dorpen vormden volgens hem een emancipatorische kracht voor de arme bevolking in de rurale gebieden, en een natuurlijke rem op de hopeloze trek naar de stad. Sindsdien richtte pater Windey’s VRO in India al zo’n vijfhonderd dorpen in, met nutsvoorzieningen als opleidings- en gezondheidscentra. De VRO-dorpelingen plantten al meer dan vijf miljoen bomen. VRO wordt vanuit verschillende Europese landen ondersteund. Het Belgische BIVRO zorgt daarbij vooral voor de financiering van de VRO-projecten in de deelstaat Odisha. Zo’n kleine veertig miljoen inwoners wonen hier op een oppervlakte van 155.707 km², ofwel vijf maal België. Het merendeel van de bevolking is hindoe. Het Odia, één van de 23 officiële talen van India, is er de voertaal (overheid, onderwijs ...). 85% leeft op het land. Odisha is binnen India de deelstaat met het hoogste percentage aan inwoners onder de armoedegrens. De meest recente cijfers spreken van 46,4%. Meer dan 20% van de bevolking van Odisha behoort tot de 'scheduled tribes' of Adivasis, een verzamelnaam voor de meer dan zeshonderd volkeren die als de oorspronkelijke bewoners van India beschouwd worden. De meesten spreken een eigen taal. 62 van die volkeren leven in Odisha. Daarnaast zijn er de ‘scheduled castes’ of Dalits, bij ons beter bekend als de onaanraakbaren. In Odisha zijn er 95 Dalit-groepen aanwezig, die er samen zo’n 15% van de bevolking uitmaken. Beide groepen leven voor het merendeel in armoede, in achtergestelde gebieden, en worden ook vandaag nog op allerlei wijzen gediscrimineerd. Het was precies op deze mensen dat pater Windey zijn aandacht wilde richten. Odisha is bestuurlijk onderverdeeld in dertig districten. Het in dit dossier beschreven project wordt uitgevoerd in het district Kendujhar, in het noorden van Odisha, waar de Adivasis in de meerderheid zijn. Dankzij VRO kwamen er in Kendujhar een nieuw dorp, en daarnaast ook twee programma’s voor naschoolse begeleiding van inheemse kinderen, drie vakscholen, twee gezondheidscentra, twee mini-dorpsontwikkelingsprogramma’s, een lagere school en een tehuis voor ouden van dagen. Dit dossier gaat over die lagere school, in het dorp Nanpur. De dorpskinderen kunnen er de drie eerste jaren school lopen vlak bij huis, waarna ze de overstap maken naar het onderwijs van de overheid.
