NGOs in Nepal

Collected by: Cornell University Library

Archived since: Oct, 2018

Description:

Throughout recorded history, Nepal has nestled between the giant cultural formations of India to the south and China/Tibet to the north. With the globalization of modern times, international interests and concerns draw Nepal into contact with more distant corners of the world. There are now a multitude of non-governmental organizations at work in Nepal, many headquartered in the Kathmandu Valley. Some are international NGOs and some are purely Nepali, some are long running and some are startups. All of the websites archived here are NGO self-presentations of their aspirations and their achievements on various fronts—humanitarian, environmental, economic, political, religious, and more.

Title: Mitini Nepal

URL: http://mitininepal.org.np/

Description: Organization founded in 2005 "MNFLI (Mitini Nepal Fund for Local Initiatives) is a groundbreaking initiative by Mitini Nepal, supported by the Foundation for a Just Society (FJS). It focuses on community-based advocacy to empower organizations and individuals working for the rights of sexual and gender minorities. These organizations play a vital role in advocating for LGBTQ+ rights, providing support, and creating safe spaces for the community. By strengthening their capacity, we can promote social change, raise awareness, and foster greater acceptance and understanding in society. Supporting CBOs is essential for building a more inclusive and equal world for sexual and gender minorities. By fostering direct engagement, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) from different provinces, MNFLI enhances their capacity and sustainability. Through lobbying and advocacy efforts, it seeks to change societal attitudes towards LGBTI groups, promoting equality and inclusion. MNFLI's presence at the local level raises awareness, helping reduce stigma and discrimination. It is a vital step towards building a more accepting and supportive society for sexual and gender minorities in Nepal."--taken from website 2024.05.06
