Nepal: mit einem Fächer von Massnahmen gegen die geschlechtsspezifische Gewalt
01.02.2016
- 31.12.2020
Geschlechtsspezifische Gewalt ist ein in Nepal weit verbreitetes Problem, das die nachhaltige Entwicklung behindert. Daher haben die DEZA und der Bevölkerungsfonds der Vereinten Nationen (United Nations Population Fund, UNFPA) Anfang 2016 ein auf 3 Jahre ausgelegtes Präventions- und Aktionsprojekt lanciert. Frauen und Mädchen werden über ihre Rechte aufgeklärt und ermutigt, Übergriffe zu benennen. Männer und Buben werden motiviert, ihr Verhalten gegenüber Frauen zu ändern. Und Opfer sollen schneller und besser behandelt werden. Erste ermutigende Veränderungen können bereits festgestellt werden.

Brücken als Lebensadern
01.08.2014
- 30.11.2019
In Nepal sind Fussgängerbrücken für die Mobilität in ländlichen Gegenden von zentraler Bedeutung. Rund 80 dieser Brücken wurden durch die Erdbeben im Jahr 2015 beschädigt oder zerstört. Tausende Menschen in Bergregionen hatten daher nur noch beschränkt Zugang zu Bildung, Gesundheitsversorgung und lokalen Märkten. Die DEZA beteiligte sich am Wiederaufbau und konnte sich dabei auf ihre langjährige Erfahrung im Land stützen.

Federalism has created a historic opportunity for some 14’000 Nepalese women, over half of them from socially discriminated groups, to serve for the first time as elected representatives at local level. However, most elected women at local level remain excluded from political decision making due to discrimination based on patriarchal norms and values, and lack of resources and networks. The project promotes women leadership to support the peace process and to prevent future conflicts.
