By Perfecto Caparas
In this Pressenza interview, Caroline Audoir de Valter, founder and CEO of Hope for the Children Foundation, discusses how her NGO has been responding to the COVID-19 devastation that grips the people of Pune, India. She narrates how the pandemic has been spawning “an increase in domestic violence and sexual abuse, depression, child marriage, and millions of children out of school.” Caroline laments that the second wave also left an estimated 5,000 children orphaned.
