New women’s group established in Kathmandu

Jason Carney from Canada has been with VSN in Pepsi Cola, Kathmandu for the last 3 months. He came to us as an expert in grant and proposal writing and has been very helpful in sourcing fund raising possibilities in Nepal. Jason has also established a new women’s group here in Pepsi-Cola. After discussions with the women and other organisers he has set up skills training, legal training and English lessons for over 20 women in the area. The women are delighted to have this opportunity to gain some independence. If you would be interested in continuing Jason’s good work when he leaves us in Jan 2010 then please get in touch!
