Understanding representation matters 🇳🇵
Part 2 highlights the समानुपातिक (Proportional Representation) seats, where voices are included based on overall support, not just direct wins. This system helps ensure diversity and gives space to communities that might otherwise be left behind.

Let’s continue encouraging a system where every voice counts.

-------------------------------------

प्रतिनिधित्वको महत्व बुझ्नु 🇳🇵
भाग २ ले समानुपातिक (आनुपातिक प्रतिनिधित्व) सिटहरूलाई प्रकाश पार्छ, जहाँ प्रत्यक्ष जित मात्र नभई समग्र समर्थनको आधारमा आवाजहरू समावेश गरिन्छ। यो प्रणालीले विविधता सुनिश्चित गर्न मद्दत गर्छ र अन्यथा पछाडि छोडिएका समुदायहरूलाई ठाउँ दिन्छ।

हरेक आवाजको गणना हुने प्रणालीलाई प्रोत्साहन गरौं।

On 24th February, YUWA, in collaboration with Plan International Nepal organized an Activism Workshop on Climate and Gender Justice
The theme was the effects of climate change on q***rness and people with disabilities.

This workshop turned canvas and acrylic into powerful stories from our participants, where q***r and persons with disabilities shared how climate change shapes their realities. More than art, it became a platform to be seen, heard, and felt.
