POV: the world is changing… but are young people changing it too?

Did they vote? Why didn’t they? Does politics still matter to this generation?

This is politics, unfiltered.

Stay tuned for the voices, hot takes, and honest opinions from the youth shaping tomorrow.

Meet the fifth batch of Youth Champions, passionate young advocates from Birgunj working to create awareness, break stigma, and promote access to safe abortion and bodily autonomy for young people in their communities.

Through the Youth Access project, these youth leaders are engaging with stakeholders, spreading awareness of Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE), and encouraging informed choices and reproductive rights for all.

Change begins when young people raise their voices for dignity, choice, and access.

Youth Champions को पाँचौं ब्याचलाई भेट्नुहोस्, वीरगञ्जका जोशिला युवा अधिवक्ताहरू जसले जागरूकता सिर्जना गर्न, कलंक तोड्न, र आफ्नो समुदायका युवाहरूका लागि सुरक्षित गर्भपतन र शारीरिक स्वायत्तताको पहुँचलाई प्रवर्द्धन गर्न काम गरिरहेका छन्।

युथ एक्सेस परियोजना मार्फत, यी युवा नेताहरूले सरोकारवालाहरूसँग संलग्न छन्, व्यापक यौन शिक्षा (CSE) को बारेमा जागरूकता फैलाउँदै छन्, र सबैका लागि सूचित छनौटहरू र प्रजनन अधिकारहरूलाई प्रोत्साहन गरिरहेका छन्।

युवाहरूले मर्यादा, छनौट र पहुँचको लागि आवाज उठाउँदा परिवर्तन सुरु हुन्छ।

On 25th April, we hosted a pad-making workshop curated by Bipana Shrestha.

This session equipped social work students with a practical, sustainable skill they can take into communities, promoting menstrual health, dignity, and accessibility where it’s needed most.

A public apology can be more than words; it can be a step toward acknowledging generations of injustice.

Nepal’s recent decision to apologize to the Dalit community opens an important conversation about accountability, dignity, and the role of governments in addressing historical discrimination. Around the world, countries like New Zealand, USA have shown that recognizing past wrongs can become the first step toward healing.

But the real question is: Can an apology lead to meaningful change?

सार्वजनिक माफी शब्दहरू भन्दा बढी हुन सक्छ; यो पुस्तादेखिको अन्यायलाई स्वीकार गर्ने दिशामा एक कदम हुन सक्छ।

दलित समुदायसँग माफी माग्ने नेपालको हालैको निर्णयले जवाफदेहिता, मर्यादा र ऐतिहासिक भेदभावलाई सम्बोधन गर्न सरकारहरूको भूमिकाको बारेमा महत्त्वपूर्ण कुराकानी खोल्छ। विश्वभर, न्यूजील्याण्ड, संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका जस्ता देशहरूले देखाएका छन् कि विगतका गल्तीहरूलाई पहिचान गर्नु उपचारको दिशामा पहिलो कदम बन्न सक्छ।

तर वास्तविक प्रश्न यो हो: के माफी माग्दा अर्थपूर्ण परिवर्तन आउन सक्छ?

Nepal’s parliamentary journey tells the story of a nation constantly evolving. 🇳🇵

From democratic movements that challenged old systems to the establishment of a Federal Parliament under the 2015 Constitution, each political phase has shaped how the country is governed. From monarchy to the Panchayat era, constitutional monarchy to a Federal Democratic Republic, every transition has carried lessons in reform and inclusion.

Today, the Federal Parliament stands as a symbol of democracy, representing people’s voices, shaping laws, and holding leadership accountable.

By understanding this journey, we can better appreciate how far Nepal has come, and how much more remains to be achieved.

नेपालको संसदीय यात्राले निरन्तर विकसित हुँदै गइरहेको राष्ट्रको कथा बताउँछ। 🇳🇵

पुरानो प्रणालीलाई चुनौती दिने लोकतान्त्रिक आन्दोलनदेखि २०१५ को संविधान अन्तर्गत संघीय संसदको स्थापनासम्म, प्रत्येक राजनीतिक चरणले देश कसरी सञ्चालन हुन्छ भनेर आकार दिएको छ। राजतन्त्रदेखि पञ्चायत युग, संवैधानिक राजतन्त्रदेखि संघीय लोकतान्त्रिक गणतन्त्रसम्म, प्रत्येक संक्रमणले सुधार र समावेशीकरणको पाठ बोकेको छ।

आज, संघीय संसद लोकतन्त्रको प्रतीकको रूपमा उभिएको छ - जनताको आवाजको प्रतिनिधित्व गर्ने, कानूनलाई आकार दिने र नेतृत्वलाई जवाफदेही बनाउने।

यो यात्रा बुझेर, हामी नेपाल कति टाढा आइपुगेको छ र अझै कति हासिल गर्न बाँकी छ भन्ने कुरा राम्रोसँग बुझ्न सक्छौं।

3 days. 1 purpose. 1 powerful new batch of youth voices. 

From understanding consent and boundaries to learning about sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR) and safe abortion services, YUWA’s 5th Batch of Youth Champions spent three days building the knowledge and confidence to create change in their communities.

Over the next 5 months, these young champions will lead school sessions and community outreach in Birgunj Metropolitan City, helping more young people make informed choices about their bodies and their futures.

 Here’s to youth leading with courage, knowledge, and action.

३ दिन। १ उद्देश्य। युवा आवाजहरूको १ शक्तिशाली नयाँ समूह।

सहमति र सीमाहरू बुझ्नेदेखि लिएर यौन तथा प्रजनन स्वास्थ्य अधिकार (SRHR) र सुरक्षित गर्भपतन सेवाहरूको बारेमा सिक्नेसम्म, YUWA को युवा च्याम्पियनहरूको पाँचौं समूहले आफ्नो समुदायमा परिवर्तन ल्याउन ज्ञान र आत्मविश्वास निर्माण गर्न तीन दिन बिताए।

आगामी ५ महिनामा, यी युवा च्याम्पियनहरूले वीरगंज महानगरपालिकामा स्कूल सत्रहरू र सामुदायिक पहुँचको नेतृत्व गर्नेछन्, जसले गर्दा धेरै युवाहरूलाई आफ्नो शरीर र आफ्नो भविष्यको बारेमा सूचित छनौट गर्न मद्दत गर्नेछ।

साहस, ज्ञान र कार्यका साथ नेतृत्व गर्ने युवाहरूको लागि यहाँ छ।
