The ongoing Transformative Education Program (TEP) in Dhanusha is creating meaningful spaces for women to learn, reflect, and raise their voices against discrimination and injustice. Through regular discussions and learning sessions for 6 months, women are gaining confidence to speak for themselves, claim their rights, and actively participate in community decision-making.
Mr. Rabin Kumar Raut, a Facilitator and Person with Disability (PwD), shared his happiness and inspiration seeing the transformation among women participants. He expressed:
🗣️ “It makes me very happy to see women becoming confident enough to speak for themselves and fight against discrimination. Their courage and participation are truly inspiring.”
TEP continues to strengthen awareness, inclusion, dignity, and community solidarity among marginalized groups in all our working locations. Together, we move towards a more just and equitable society.
