Our main office is situated in Tansen bazar. As the situation elsewhere in Nepal, the rural women in Palpa suffer from suppression. They are often illiterate, as their parents never thought it was necessary to send them to school. Another reason to the high level of illiteracy is that the girls have many chores around the house, and maybe the nearest school is 1 or 2 hours walk away. Therefore, lack of time has often been a hindrance for the women's possibility of an education.
