Area of Focus: Basic Education and Literacy. This program supports the Rotary Nepal Literacy Mission (RNLM) with the goal of achieving total literacy in Nepal. On World Literacy Day (8th September), a 3-month Adult Literacy Program was launched for 50 illiterate women from Buddhanagar village. To facilitate the learning process, coursebooks, notebooks, and stationery were provided to each participant. The total cost of the project was 3,500 NPR. This program is expected to benefit not only the 50 illiterate women but also their families. There is a strong need for women’s education in rural areas to eliminate various social challenges and open up multiple opportunities for women. As the saying goes, “When we educate a woman, we educate an entire family.”
