Our Strategy

Our Strategy

Gender equality is clearly not prevalent in Nepali society and this inequality has been the root cause of other social, economic and gender inequalities. Inequality restricts the opportunity for people of all genders which hinders their rights to enjoy their rights and live life to their full potential.

Barriers to Equality 

  • Patriarchal beliefs and gender roles 
  • Legal inequalities 
  • Deep-rooted harmful traditional practices such as child marriage 
  • Lack of awareness amongst women and girls about rights, entitlement, and services 
  • Women participation in public life is less than men 
  • Heavier domestic works loads for women and girls than men and boys 
  • Family expectations restrict gender roles and behaviors 
  • Restricted mobility for women and girls 
  • Lower literacy skills for women than men 
  • Limited access to socioeconomic opportunities for vulnerable women and girls 
  • Limited protection and education provisions for vulnerable children
