In April, Elisha Frei, the new Horyzon project manager for Nepal, traveled to Kathmandu to visit the "EmpowHER" project and meet the employees of the local partner organization YWCA Nepal in person. Alongside numerous exchanges with the local team, Elisha had the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the country, its people, and its culture. This is crucial not only for the project's implementation but also for further planning, evaluation, and monitoring purposes. The project offers workshops and courses for young women to expand their knowledge in areas such as gender equality, family planning, finance, mental health, and women's rights. As multipliers, these women then support others in their communities. Regular group meetings, accompanied by mentors, facilitate exchange and mutual learning.
