(SAATHI)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a Non-Governmental Organization, working with the vision of making Sikkim a Drug Free State. It is a school based Peer Education Model to prevent drug use disorders.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SAATHI was conceived on the premise that \u201c<\/span><b><i>There are no teachers, there are only learners<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d and therefore the system of \u2018<\/span><b><i>Peer Education<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019 was introduced. The aim of the project is to curb the issue of substance abuse and to educate students, parents, and school administration about the health and socio-economic implications of it. SAATHI empowers and enables the youth of Sikkim, through quality holistic education, to realize their full potential and understand their roles and responsibilities in making meaningful contributions to the development of a prosperous and happy Sikkim.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SAATHI was registered as an NGO in the year 2015. It\u2019s main goal is to embed its methods in the school curriculum and make itself a\u00a0self-sustained model. The essential idea revolves around the fact that peer educators and learners share common experiences and have ease of communication.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Peer Educators function as a facilitator and as someone who makes learning easier by working on problems with the learner, by demonstrating how he\/she goes about challenging a situation or abnegating an offer. An educator can often be more effective by his or her actions than by simply advising the learner.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

was conceptualized on the premise that \u2018There are no Teachers, there are only Learners\u2019 and hence the system of \u201cPeer Education\u201d was introduced. The idea behind it being, the peer educators and learners share some degree of common experience. Therefore, people belonging to the same peer group irrespective of their class, age, gender or any other social construct can communicate best and understand each other better. The peer educator functions as a facilitator, someone who makes learning easier and hence can reach the project goals more effectively as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6221ecc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"6221ecc\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;zoomIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-73b39d4\" data-id=\"73b39d4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f7e710 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6f7e710\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Programme Deliverables<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-290e3f3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"290e3f3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The project deliverables are:<\/p><p>(a) Decrease in dropout rate amongst the students attributed to drugs;<\/p><p>(b) Decrease in the number of the students consuming substance;<\/p><p>(c) Increase in the number of the students who wish to be peer educators;<\/p><p>(d) Decrease in the number of drug related incidents in schools<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ab748c8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"ab748c8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;zoomIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a20a524\" data-id=\"a20a524\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-51d2c05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"51d2c05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">SAATHI\u2019s Belief System.<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d311752 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d311752\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SAATHI\u2019s belief system is based on 6 principles that guides on how it thinks and acts:<\/p><ul><li><u>Student Learn and Lead.<\/u><\/li><\/ul><p>SAATHI utilizes the idea of friendship as a key tool to educate students about drug abuse.
