'NAANI' project

'NAANI' is a common word used to address  a girl with respect and love. 'NAANI' itself is a  beautiful name and for a particular girl. A girl's role in community reflects the entire project. NAANI's role itself is a programme under this project. Obviously this project intends to make the entire community people of targeted areas aware on the issue of human trafficking and its cross cutting themes gender violence, unsafe migration etc. In each VDC (Village Development Committee) there will a female volunteer who works closely with community people; parents, school dropped out girls/boys, students farmers, teachers, representatives of local government bodies, political parties'  leaders etc. NAANI, as Maiti Nepal's volunteer for respective VDC will be primarily recruited from former trainees of Prevention Home Nuwakot and Makawanpur. If no any former trainees are available as volunteers,  other girl(s) will be recruited.
