Safe Drinking Water facility in Manigaun Gumda

We successfully completed our water project. Now, we were headed for our next phase of the project, which is to raise awareness regarding unsafe migration for foreign employment, girl trafficking & its negative consequences and the need of women empowerment in the rural parts of Gorkha. In this campaign, we also added a special program regarding personal hygiene and the need for sanitation as most of the rural parts is not aware of these knowledge and most places are openly defecated.

So, first of all, our campaign started from the district headquarters Gorkha where people from all walks of life and related stakeholders were invited to participate in our campaign and also take part in our "question & answer" session. 

As, we were wrapping up our awareness campaign in the district headquarters and headed to various rural VDCs in upper Gorkha, we were informed that we could not conduct programs in upper Gorkha as Local elections were going to be held and the law also bars from conducting welfare activities during pre-election period. It is because it may be used for political gains. So, we had to halt our awareness campaign for few weeks.

Now, since the election is over in our area of activity, we are now continuing our awareness campaign. We conducted a campaign in Gumda VDC, which is about one day walk from the headquarters. It was a very responsive campaign and we were very satisfied with the results from the responsiveness of the attendees in the awareness campaign held there.

This is the first village after the post election period that we have been able to conduct the awareness campaign.  Our next destination for our awareness campaign will be Laprak VDC of Gorkha.

Thank You for your support. We hope we have your great support until the very end.
