Climate leadership and action for Indigenous women in Nepal
The Climate Leadership and Action for Indigenous Women in Nepal (CLAIWN) project seeks to enhance climate rights of Indigenous women and girls in 2 of 3 districts (Sindupalchok, Kavre and Ramechhap) of the middle hills region of Nepal. Project activities include: (1) training Indigenous women and girls as climate action leaders; (2) preparing gender-integrated and Indigenous women-led Community Adaptation Plans of Action (CAPAs); (3) creating a mentorship and support program for Indigenous women and girls climate leaders between Canada and Nepal; (4) establishing an innovation fund to support local climate action initiatives; (5) training of government officials on gendered effects of climate change and barriers to climate action for Indigenous women and girls; (6) creating policy recommendations for gender-responsive and inclusive climate action; and (7) implementing advocacy activities to promote CAPAs and gain local government approval and support. Working closely with Centre for Indigenous Environmental Resources (CIER, Canada) and local partners, Himalayan Grassroots Women’s Natural Resource Management Institution (HIMAWANTI), Nepal Federation of Indigenous Nationalities (NEFIN),and the National Federation of Indigenous Women (NFIW), the project benefits 4,000 Indigenous community members, particularly the Tamang People. The project addresses the ecological, livelihood and wellbeing threats that climate change poses to the rights of Indigenous communities in Nepal. This project aligns with the Government of Nepal policies on climate change notably its National Action Programme of Adaptation (NAPA).

Rural Health Development Project
Through its project planning and implementation approach RHDP has empowered community groups, especially women, and also influenced the village development committees (VDCs) to integrate community health demands in VDC planning, and thus contributed to local state building and better service delivery. After 17 years of cooperation, this will be the last phase of RHDP that will focus on consolidation and sustainability. As in the past, the project will aim at improving overall health status of people, especially of women, poor and disadvantaged groups in remote areas of Dolakha, Ramechhap and Okhaldhunga districts. Primary beneficiaries will be women, children, adolescents, and men, with special attention to Dalits and Janajatis.

Maternal Child Health Initiative - World Neighbours Canada
The initiative aims to address several development needs and challenges all linked to underlying poverty and lack of basic services in the remote rural areas in the Ramechap district in Nepal, in the Azabache and Nacaome areas in Honduras and in the Gourma province in Burkina Faso. The overall objective of the initiative is to improve the health of mothers and young children, and thus contribute to reducing maternal and child mortality, through assistance with village and household-scale infrastructure, parent health education and enhanced nutrition and food security. World Neighbours Canada aims to develop and implement training programs for women and men to learn about family planning options, to increase food crop production using sustainable and ecologically sound practices, to promote proper nutrition in infants and young children under two years of age that includes breast feeding promotion, developing and implementing water system plans with participation of users etc. The project proposes to benefit more than 50,000 women, men, girls and boys. World Neigbours Canada is working with Tamakoshi Sewa Samiti (TSS) in Nepal, L’Association d’Appui à la Promotion du Développement Durable des Communautés (APDC) in Burkina Faso, and Vecinos Honduras, in Honduras to implement this project. This project is part of Canada’s commitment to maternal, newborn and child health programming.

Tokarpur Health Post Birthing Center Renovation
One Heart Worldwide is raising money to renovate the Tokarpur Health Post Birthing Center. Tokarpur lies in one of the most remote parts of Nepal's Ramechhap District. Even though the health facility is not currently considered a Birthing Center given the limited infrastructure and untrained human resources, there is a desperate need for these services in the community. There have been nine deliveries without a trained skilled birth attendant and proper equipment in just the last three months.
