Language Development Centre Nepal (LDC-Nepal) and Help Society Nepal (HS-Nepal) working together since 2008 to implement language, education and development activities. We are supporting Tharu and other minor communities in Dang to promote their heritage language and culture through multilingual education and micro community development activities.
Tharu communities are not given opportunities to participate in development processes because of socio-cultural-political discriminations. These discriminations link to conflict, human rights violations, underrepresentation and increase in poverty levels, lack of equal access to and quality education (formal and non-formal).
We are committed to change these situations and organized the Training on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to fifteen (Male: 8 Female: 7) NGO staff and members in Dang. They were trained how to facilitate training in the communities to aware them about 17 SDGs and their roles and responsibilities.
All participants are hopeful that this kind of training in the communities will be changed the mind set of people for their positive contribution in the development. They said, “These ideas are very new for us. The training helped us understand next 15 years' development agendas." Pabitra Chaudhary said, “I spent about ten years in development field and now this training is helped me to realize the importance of development agendas and its challenges in my/our life.”
Key Concerns: We are facing difficulties to address community's minimum expectations or requirements because of funding issue. We are trying to connect with potential people and foundation to generate additional financial resources and supports for our projects.
We are grateful for your support. Thank you.
