The Un Raggio di Luce Foundation, the municipality of Tila and the two Nepalese non-governmental organizations (NGOs - Sarbodaya Nepal and Sarbodaya Jumla) undertake to conduct an awareness and information campaign with 20 gender facilitators with the coordination of the wards. The project organizes: periodic meetings with women and men from the villages, with representatives of the municipality and neighborhoods, directors and teachers of schools, health personnel and associations operating in the area; events such as song competitions, street theater, video projection; training and information seminars.
It is one of the first interventions of this kind in all of Nepal, motivated by the discriminatory and harmful from a psycho-physical point of view of the various restrictions that prevent women and girls - considered impure during the menstrual cycle - from attending the temple and public events, eating dairy products, accessing the kitchen and touching the foods consumed in the family.
Chhaupadi
The most severe restriction in the Karnali region where the Jumla district is located is the isolation of women after childbirth and during the cycle for periods ranging from 3 to 7 days / nights in cramped and unhealthy huts or in a corner of the stables, a practice known as "chhaupadi", which is the origin of accidents of various kinds, sometimes fatal. For some years, there has been very marked attention to this problem in the health sector and in that of the protection of human rights.
In Nepal, the practice of chhaupadi has been illegal since 2005 and punishable under the penal code since 2018, but to date there has been no effective and significant reduction in these practices which are well rooted in tradition, especially in the more backward areas where a prevailing conservative Hindu culture. Thanks to the Foundation‘s commitment to the "Female emancipation and improvement of women‘s conditions in Jumla" project, active since 2012/2013, these menstrual restrictions have already been eliminated in 26 villages. For this reason, the municipality of Tila has proposed to the Foundation and the two Nepalese NGOs to collaborate together with one goal: to eliminate the practice of chhaupadi through an 18-month women‘s empowerment project in 43 villages involving 1,600 families who still follow this practice.
The project is financed by the donation in memory of Franca Chessa Romano to whom the project is dedicated.
