Nepal is in a complete lockdown at the time of this report due to COVID 19. While it is nearly impossible to move around t any great degree, where it is possible we have been helping to create public service announcements for local governments to ensure people have a proper flow of information in these difficult times. We produced three public service announcements in three different languages that explain the basis of handwashing, social distancing and etc annd you can see one of those videos right HERE.
We also helped the Mayor of a small town in the Dhading District of Nepal with a message he wanted to create for the governments social media channel and that is HERE
One issue that is painfully obvious in the mainstream press in Nepal is the lack of women's voices at this time. We know that disasters often impact women especially hard but with very few women in media those stories can't be found. We are even more committed to training women in media arts and getting the stories of women who remain voiceless at this critical time.
