‘Heartbreaking to see my home region devastated’: WaterAid Nepal’s Country Director Sudarshan Neupane calls for global action after deadly glacial flood disaster.

“Having grown up in Rasuwa District – one of the hardest-hit regions in the recent flash floods in Nepal – it is truly devastating to see so many families facing unimaginable loss, displacement and uncertainty. My thoughts are with everyone affected, as WaterAid Nepal works closely with the Government of Nepal and local organisations to support the wider emergency response.”

Just months before giving birth to her first baby, Beatrice's local clinic was closed due to flood damage. She had no choice but to travel hours away to the antenatal shelter in Simulemba, and remain there until her baby was born.

With unreliable water taps and just a few bathrooms for over 20 women, even basic hygiene was a daily struggle.

Playing netball with other women was more than a game, it was a chance to forget, for a while, the challenges of life without clean water.

Communities know firsthand how our climate is changing, and they have the data to prove it.

That's why we're training community members to note, report and understand how climate change is impacting their local area, and in turn their access to water. Because resilient communities means a better future for all.
