The devastating Nepal earthquake in 2015 destroyed families and livelihoods, and pushed one million into extreme poverty. While many are able to recover, thousands of children have migrated to cities, forced to live and work on the street. Without the support of their families, they are extremely vulnerable and exposed to trafficking and exploitation. Kidasha is directly supporting children in crisis: street & working children, victims of abuse and children living in urban slums.

International Rivers has played a key role in supporting civil society networks to understand hydro-power and to be better prepared to fight against bad projects, and advocate for their rivers and livelihoods. IR, along with Oxfam, has been key in supporting thedevelopment and operations of the regional Save the Mekong Coalition, and we continue to play a key convening and capacity buildingrole within that network. As a result of our ongoing campaigning to raise awareness in the region about the valueof the Mekong River and the need to protect this vital resource, regional governments have begun to recognize that critical knowledge gaps still remain in understanding dam impacts, and that timely scientific and economic analysis can help influence decision-making in the politicalrealm.
