💁🏽♀️ Why are we called Project 'Didi'?
Didi is a respectful term for older sister in Nepali.
And it reflects the supportive, #collaborative role we want to take - partnering with local organisations that support bright futures for women and girls in #Nepal that are survivors.
👋🏽 Meet Leonie Keogh - one of our founders! 👋🏽
"I was blown away by their strength, resilience and ability to trust after going through extreme circumstances. I think I got just as much from them as they from me."

🏠 While the pandemic limited inspections, the government removed 48 children from exploitative, unregistered orphanages. Children had been sexually abused and forced to work. Read more about @AshaNepal's reintegration of these children: https://t.co/PsPwWuBOw7
"Survivors' voices lead the way" is the theme for this year's World Day Against Trafficking, on 30th July. In solidarity with survivors and this day, we thought we'd share some important findings from the recently released U.S. Department of State's #TraffickinginPersonsReport.
😷 The pandemic severely restricted services for survivors, with some NGOs noting the government’s pandemic-related safety lockdown created situations similar to those survivors faced while under traffickers’ control.
World Day Against Trafficking is this Friday, 30th July. This @Freedom_Fund report emphasises the discrete modes of trafficking in Kathmandu's adult entertainment sector. @AshaNepal works to ensure survivors have the resources to build meaningful futures.
