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: Women's Skills Development Organization

URL: https://wsdonepal.com/

Description: We are a Fair Trade organization, which has been working since 1975 as a non-profit and income-generating program supporting women that face difficult and significant social and economic hardships—being differently abled, abused, widowed, divorced, single, orphaned or of marginalized castes. These women are provided with free trainings and employment opportunities related to the many different steps of making WSDO’s handwoven and handmade products. All of this is meant to follow WSDO’s vision—to improve the quality of life for all women in Nepal—by empowering women with new skills and capacities to be self-supportive. - From the website 2018.12.03 Organization founded in 1975
