The major setbacks specially with women in rural
areas can be identified as follows..
01. Women are mostly oppressed & dominated by
male members of the family; they are often barred from participating
in social activities.
02. Girl child are not given proper education in
orthodox family, they can not build self confidence due to lack of
conscience and education. Without conscience they can not also make
decision about family affairs.
03. Women in a family are limited to day to day
household chores only. No interactive performances etc are ever
entertained by head of family (often eldest son)
04. A
family member takes female child as a burden; they do their best to
get rid of them by marring off at very younger age. No matter what
their daughter’s dream and expectation are.
05. Women are not employed due to their lack of
education and trainings. If male member (or husband) does not
support the family they have no fixed source of income. It is
unimaginable for widow or father less girl child to live in the
society; they are forced or lured into sex trade on different
pretext.
06. There is huge discrimination between son and
daughters, arrival of female child aren’t usually celebrated.
07. Lack of conscience make them unaware of the
importance of living in harmony.
08. Only husband earning livelihood sometime not
enough for whole family.
09. They lack social awareness and have very low
(or none) contribution in social services.
10. As they can not do creative job they land up as
a physical labor.
So these are the general overview of Nepalese
women, we would like to contribute to our society by providing some
kind of trainings to young women, provide elementary education and
some sort vocational trainings etc. And hope our endeavor would
create a mile stone in social awareness campaign.
How to contribute:
You can approach your
organization for funding the expenses of volunteer to visit Nepal,
we set up a special camp with women are in need of help (there are
thousands). You can act as a catalyst for boosting up their self
confidence by providing various eye opening trainings,
demonstrations, general awareness program etc.
Teaching them to be self dependent so that their
husband and in laws do not underestimate or abuse them taking
advantage of her dependence on her husband income for survival. Once
women are self sufficient and self dependent domestic violence
automatically become less and less over the course of time.
Or let us know how you can best utilize your time
and your experience after going thorough our general overview that
we have gathered in our lifetime experience and our involvement in
social activities.
