We believe change is built from within — by the same communities who have long practised resistance, survival, and care.
Heart of Nepal walks alongside Dalit and Janajati women and children in the Indrawati Rural Municipality, specifically in Sipapokhare Ward 7 and Bhimtar Ward 12, where caste and gender hierarchies continue to shape access to rights, opportunity, and dignity.
Our work begins with what already exists: the strength, solidarity, and knowledge of Dalit and Janajati women. We support women in organizing into self-run collectives that prioritize community-determined goals.
We don't impose models. We learn from and build with communities who have long practised resistance, survival, and care. Together, we co-create opportunities for women to claim space, share resources, and support Dalit and Janajati children.
Programs are community-initiated, designed, and implemented. We take direction from the people we work with, not the other way around.
We challenge top-down aid models that view marginalized communities as passive beneficiaries. Dignity means agency.
We address overlapping oppressions — caste, gender, and poverty — not as separate issues but as systems that must be dismantled together.
We collaborate with institutions and funders who value community voice, thoughtful approach, and long-term impact over quick wins.
Create sustained opportunities for Dalit and Janajati women to lead — as entrepreneurs, mentors, and organizers within their own communities.
Facilitate skills-based training and savings groups that support women in generating income and achieving economic independence.
Support access to quality education for children, while promoting legal awareness, digital literacy, and reproductive health knowledge for women.
Train local women as peer mentors and facilitators who carry forward the work — ensuring sustainability through shared leadership.
Challenge caste- and gender-based oppression through grassroots advocacy, storytelling, and ethical partnerships rooted in justice.
Every dollar donated goes directly to programs. We operate with radical transparency and accountability to the communities we serve.
At Heart of Nepal, our holistic model catalyzes lasting social transformation from within, challenging long-standing prejudices and regressive norms that have historically subjugated the community. We believe that when communities lead, change is not just possible — it is inevitable.
We work specifically in Sipapokhare Ward 7 and Bhimtar Ward 12 — communities where caste and gender hierarchies continue to shape access to rights, opportunity, and dignity.
Our registered office is located in Lalitpur Metropolitan, Ward No. 13, Kusunti.
Whether you donate, volunteer, or spread the word — you're part of building a more equitable Nepal.
