Project timeline: 2/11/2015 - 8/12/2022
Committed to advancing women empowerment, Ms. Aarti Chataut pursued a project addressing sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) faced by Nepali women. She sought to provide a space for victims to discuss their story and inform the public about the gravity of such violence. Broadcast through Nepal Television, Ms. Chataut regularly produces and presents a TV Show, “Sangharsa - Pahal (Voice of the Voiceless).” She utilized her media platform to complete her Fellow Project and address sexual and gender-based violence in a special titled “Pahal - An Initiative Against Gender Based Violence.”
