Many girls/women in rural Nepal face early marriage, adolescent pregnancy, bonded labor, & insecure informal employment, forcing many to leave school and limiting their decent work opportunities. Trapped in poverty and social exclusion, many migrate to Kathmandu in search of livelihoods, where they often end up in hazardous work, exploitative informal jobs, or sex industry. And they expose to violence, discrimination, poor mental well-being, and a persistent cycle of poverty and exploitation.
