Nepali Yoga Women’s Trust
About ten years ago Devika began the Nepali Yoga Women’s Trust, a non-profit organization to empower disenfranchised women. In Nepal a woman has fewer rights than a man in social and cultural activities, that’s why they count as second-class citizens.
Training Program of Nepali Yoga Women’s Trust
Devika will continue a training program where women are taught various skills such as yoga, massage, handicrafts and etc. In addition, Devika will pay for their children’s education, clothing, and books to ensure that the women have time to attend the training courses. Creating the opportunity to become independent contributing members of society. Most importantly these efforts are empowering women to overcome the limits of society. There are many women who have graduated to start their own business and others who have joined the workforce. Still, every year more women seek out Devika’s training and that’s why it is critical to continue this humanitarian project.
