Reproductive Health for 500 Dalit Women in Nepal

In rural Nepal, maternal mortality is one of the highest in the world. Our workshops will educate 500 female community health workers, EDWON women's group leaders and group members from the marginalized Dalit ("untouchable") caste, in lifesaving maternal and neonatal care and family planning. Such knowledge is crucial for women's and girls' empowerment as well as their health. Doctors from our partner Nidan ("cure") will train 70 women who will benefit directly and then train 430 others.
