Slum Walks in Delhi

In India, it is very difficult to benefit from any state aid for NGOs. Waiting for that to change, we have several self-management strategies. These become part of the project, along the lines of sustainability and respect for human rights in which PETE thinks. 

One of them consists of taking a small group of people, Indian or foreign, to know the reality of life in the colourful suburb of New Delhi Kathputli (puppet) Colony.

This activity also allows slum dwellers, if they wish, to interact with foreigners from different cultures and show them their daily life. 

The aim of the walk is not to «visit» nor make poverty a «tourist tour» but to meet people to exchange experiences with them, having a tea and chatting. The walk in the suburbs is much more than a walk, but an exchange and a first step towards awareness.

On your Slum Walk our local guide will take you through the maze of alleyways of their neighborhood in one of Delhi’s largest slums. You'll meet the smiling children and women in our schools and experience this often unseen side of Delhi.

Join us on our safe and respectful walk of the slums and have an experience you'll remember forever!

The money gained through the Slum Walks will be donated to the projects of PETE (Providing Education To Everyone).
