Development projects in Nepal

Ama Ghar is a home for children who would otherwise be living on the street in terrible conditions. This project will raise funds for our 7 oldest children to continue their education. Government schools in Nepal only teach children through Class 10 - in order to make our children self-sufficient and employable, they need 2 more years of vocational training or college classes. These children (2 boys, 5 girls) are excellent students and have worked hard for a better life - please help.

In Nepal, there are still many parents who do not send their children to school because of financial hardship. School enrollment and attendance need to be increased through care, support and building up child competency. Students need to be encouraged through hands-on practical learning, which will make learning interesting. Through an integrated approach with the curriculum, students will be trained to understand and gain deeper insight on various environmental issues affecting our daily life.

During the practice of Chhaupadi, which is wide-spread in parts of Nepal, girls and women are regarded as 'impure' during their period. They are excluded from participating in socio-economic and school life, locked out of the house (sometimes sleeping in sheds), refused access to public areas, cannot eat certain foods and have no contact with men. This project decreases discriminatory practices surrounding periods, transforms assumptions and repairs the self-confidence of affected women.

In Nepal, education policy-makers are not aware of what inclusive education really means. The government is therefore failing to ensure an inclusive high quality education system for Dalit ("untouchable") girls with blindness who are between 5-16 years of age. As a result, in remote rural Nepal, illiteracy remains high among Dalit women with blindness. Dalit girls with disabilities face multiple forms of discrimination and violence because of their caste, gender and disability status.
