ACTIZEN is also a citizenship education contest. It is a contest that is revolutionary and an initiative to teach democratic values to students. The contest is just a miniature for encouraging students and getting their ideas on how to tackle some of the biggest problems of the country. The children will produce not only solutions but will get ready to face issues of the country. The contest is design in such a way that it will test not only academic knowledge but skills as well.

Therefore, let us join hands with DESH APNAYEN and make this initiative a fruitful product for children and transform them into not only for becoming ideal students but citizens as well.
