CHOOSING A PROJECT
We brainstormed to see what project we could take up.
During the brainstorming session we shared our ideas
and came up with the following list:
 Awareness campaign on personnel hygiene
 Providing stationary materials to the underprivileged
students of rural areas.
 Awareness on violence against women & teenage
health.
 Awareness to promote open defecation free zone.
 Campaign on road safety

DETERMINATION OF PROBLEM
Violence against women is a burning issue in
today‟s context even though many women are
empowered and aware now. In Nepal, although,
women are leading in many sectors, there are
many girls especially in slum areas who are facing
harassment and violence. All the members of our
group agreed that this problem would be the most
appropriate as per our financial means as well as
our project time duration.

CHOOSING THE PROBLEM
When we read in the newspapers about the cases of
women and girls who are facing the problems of
violence, we observed cases of women and girls
violence in one month as recorded in the newspapers.
There are hundreds of such cases unrecorded
throughout the country. In this situation, we decided to
do what is possible within our capability and then
started a project named “STUDENTS UNITING
AGAINST VIOLENCE (SAVE)”. In this project we will
ask support from the volunteer groups or various
organizations that are working in the field of girls/
women violence in Nepal. We will collect some money
from the students voluntarily and will use that money to
support the orphanage by providing some support. The
support program will be targeting local slums. The
types of cases and their number according to the
newspaper from January 26th to February 27.

CHOOSING THE PROBLEM CONT…
In addition to the news paper articles we also went
to observe the " Occupy Baluwatar Movement “ in
Baluwatar, Kathmandu, Nepal on 20th April 2013 in
order to gain an insight on the current state of
women violence in Nepal.
On the suggestion of our facilitator Mrs. Sarita
Dewan, we also visited Prerana, a non-
governmental organization which helps the poor
and needy people, where we met Mr. Moti Lal
Lama, the program coordinator of the organization.
After having a conversation with Mr. Lama, he gave
us feedback to visit slum area of Manohara, among
the various alternatives which were slum areas of
Sankhamul, Tripureshwor, Bhaisipati and
Manohara.

Interviewer Person Question Answer
Anshuka Rani Das Bimala Ghimire
( Chief of Projects,
Prerana)
Has the situation of women
violence increased in Nepal or
it has just been coming to
media a lot?
The problem has not increased but
the people have become more aware
than before and they are approaching
concerned authority to get their rights
and justice.
Shiska Raut Bimala Ghimire Do teenagers face violence
too?
The problem has high intensity among
the age group of 18-25 years but it has
affected teenagers too.
Asma Pun Moti Lama
( Secretary-
Prerana)
What are the programs that
you all have been Carrying out
for Women problems?
We have been conducting programs
like awareness on women
empowerment, sanitation, skill
development training and support
programs.
Nikita Yadav Moti Lama Which area of Kathmandu has
the highest intensity of this
problem?
Almost every field is affected but the
slum area is the most affected
because it is lacking in most of the
services and faces many problems.
Aashma Poudel Moti Lama Do people frankly confess their
problems?
No, they don't. But these days the
number of women reporting violence
has increased not because the
problem has increased but due to
aware citizens these days.
AN INTERVIEW WITH PRERANA ORGANIZATION

PROBLEM AREA
We have selected a local slum in Bhaktapur ( Manohara
slum) which consists of 600 households as our problem
area. The target of our project "Students Uniting Against
Violence(SAVE)" is to aware the girls of this slum about
violence by interacting with them in a positive manner and
through awareness campaigns. We especially are
targeting the teenage girls in this local slum as they have
less security and facilities compared to the slums of
Kathmandu. We are also planning to give some
materialistic support to the slum girls and some health
advices.

Aayush Thapa Kul Bahadur Lamai
(Dail Community)
How big is this slum?
What is the condition of
people and children here?
This slum is very big and has about
600 households and is about 1km in
radius.
The condition here is really bad here.
People don't have general facilities
too. Both women and men work as
laborers and some keep livestock too.
Children go to school but they don't
have access to resources and most
children work.
Anshuka Rani Das Are there cases of violence in
the slum?
Yes, there are. Domestic violence is
vaster and many cases of harassment
have been reported too.
Asma Pun Do the girls here have any idea
about violence and
harassments?
I don't think so because as people
here are conservative and backward
they don't have idea about violence.
Shiska Raut How many schools are here in
the slum?
There is only one school that is
Saraswati Primary School and Dial
community also gives education to
little children and provides food to
many children.
AN INTERVIEW WITH KUL BAHADUR LAMAI
(DAIL COMMUNITY)

AN INTERVIEW WITH MRS. INDIRA MAHAT
(principal of Shree Saraswati Primary school )
Aayush Thapa Mrs Indira Mahat
(principal of saraswati
school )

in this school?
There are about 400-500 students
studying here.
How is the condition of Girls
here?
The condition of girls is fine.
Has any program related to
women violence carried out
here in the slum?
No there hasn't been any program
related to women violence but there
is a group of girls working in "Kishori
Shakti Samuha' which empowers
teenage girls and give them physical
education.
Has any student in this school
been facing violence or
harassment of any types?
There are children who work in
other's house to earn money. Mostly
those girls become the victim of
harassment and violence.

AN INTERVIEW WITH KISHORI SITAULA
(LEADER OF KISHORI SHAKTI SAMUHA)
Anshuka Rani Das Kishori Sitaula
(leader of Kishori Shakti
Samuha)
You are the leader of your group
Kishori Shakti Samuha . How
does this group work?
Yes we have a group of around 18-20
teenage girls. We teach the girls about
the physical changes and help them in
empowering themselves. We also give
materialistic supports.
Aayush Thapa Do people readily tell about the
problems they are facing?
No they don't. They tend to hide the
problems they are facing in the fear of
being humiliated.
Shiska Raut What types of problem related to
violence is frequent here?
The problem of domestic violence is
frequent here. Woman and girl children
are beaten up by their father in most
cases. Girls are harassed too.
Nikita Yadav What is the situation of
sanitation here?
There is very poor hygiene and
sanitation here. As we are settled down
in the banks of River . The river water is
really polluted due to its frequent use
and there are no toilets here. Only 30%
of people have toilets in their house
others who don't have use the
community toilet.
Asma Pun Has any incident occurred
recently?
Yes, these incidents keep happening. but
people have been a little aware that they
need to fight for justice and rights.

WHY WE SELECTED MANOHARA
SLUM
Manohara is a place located at Bhaktapur, in the banks
of the river Manohara . People have been residing in
that area for six years. We selected the manohara slum
of Bhaktapur because of the following reasons:
1. Poor environment sanitation.
2. Pitiful condition of girls.
3. Increasing rate of violence in the slum community.
4. Only a primary level school in a community of 600
households.
5. Different organizations are working there but none of
them have targeted women violence as the problem.
6. People belonging to 23 different ethnic groups reside in
the same slum.

TARGETED GROUP
After the observation of the slum area we found out the
Dail Community provides food every morning to the
children and the teenagers of the slum. After having a
talk with the principal of 'Shree Saraswati Prathamic
Vidyalaya' , we found out that minimum 25 teenage girls
from the slum come to the school and the dial
community. So we decided to target 30 students within
the age group of 12- 16 yrs that come to the school, as
the are still immature and need more awareness and
empowerment.

PROGRAM PLAN
We had planned to conduct our program on 26th May, 2013 ,
Sunday but because of the upcoming school activities and
lack of time we couldn't conduct the program. So, after
discussing about the program with the people of the Shree
Saraswati Primary School, we decided to conduct our
program on 2nd June, 2013. We have divided our program
into three parts:
1. Awareness about violence
 Current status of women in Nepal.
 Types, effects and causes of women violence.
 Cleanliness and care during menstrual period.
2. Demonstration of self-defense techniques
 Basic defense techniques
3.Distribution of sanitary kits
 General information about the materials inside the sanitary
kits.
 Primary health awareness

AWARENESS & SUPPORT PROGRAM
According to our scheduled plan on 2nd June 2070,
eight members of SQC Elevate along with the facilitators
Mrs. Sarita Dewan and Mr. Nirajan Adhikari went to
Shree Saraswati Primary School to conduct our
Awareness & Support Program, accompanied by fifteen
SQC volunteers of class IX.
We received a warm welcome by the students and
teachers of Shree Saraswati Primary School. We put up
posters related to our theme on the walls of the school.
As per our target group, thirty girl students of 12-16
years were ready for the program, we had awareness
program against women violence and sanitation kit as
support for them. The principal of the school Mrs. Indira
Mahat was present there as the invited guest along with
other teachers. Then, we carried on with our awareness
program.

FURTHER PROGRAMS TO
BE CONDUCTED
We have finished the 1st phase of our project SAVE:
„Support & Awareness Program‟ which was conducted in
the Manohara slum. We members have also agreed on
the 2nd phase of our project in which we will conduct
“Education for Girl Child” campaign in the rural areas near
the Kathmandu valley in the days to come. We have
decided to provide stationary items including course
books, exercise books as well as resource books to the
underprivileged girls.
