Motivation: “Serve The Unserved People” treibt mich dazu an, im Entwicklungssektor zu arbeiten. In Nepal liegen immer noch 21% der Bevölkerung unter der Armutsgrenze (Daten 2018 n.Chr.). Es gibt viele Menschen und Orte, die unversorgt und unerreichbar sind, was verschiedene Formen der menschlichen Entwicklung betrifft, wie Gesundheit, Bildung, Stärkung der Rolle der Frau, Katastrophen, Einkommensschaffung und Förderung des Lebensunterhalts. In den letzten Jahren meiner beruflichen Laufbahn hatte ich das Glück, einige der herausragenden Projekte in vielen ländlichen und abgelegenen Regionen Nepals zu verwirklichen, die marginalisierten, verwundbaren und armen Gemeinschaften den Zugang zu besserer Bildung, nachhaltigen Gesundheitsdiensten, Einkommensschaffung und Umweltschutz ermöglichen.
