My journey as a founder member at GNB Nepal starts from February 2012 and this has been very exciting for me. A long working experience with grassroot level women and girls motivated me to be a part of GNB network.
I feel proud to have fulfilled my responsibilities by raising my voice against child marriage through advocacy, interaction and presentation at different forums.Over the years GNB Nepal has made significant contribution to strengthen the National partnership by organizing and participating in partners meetings and capacity building trainings. Further by contributing to develop and finalize the National Strategy to ECM and action plan. GNB Nepal has been highlighting the issue of child marriage through advocacy, interactions and presentations in different forum. Such contribution towards girl’s protection from the harmful practice of child marriage gives me personal satisfaction and encouragement.
My expectation from the network is that we will end the harmful practice of child marriage in Nepal through the combined work and solidarity of like minded organizations and Government.
As a National Coordinator of GNB Nepal. I aim to put forth my best efforts as pre written in GNB constitution despite the challenges.
