1. VSO and PRAYAS Project Background
VSO is the world’s leading independent, international development organization that works through international volunteer professionals. VSO Nepal is working in Nepal since 1964 to improve the lives of impoverished people in some of the country’s poorest districts, particularly focusing on vulnerable women and girls. We believe that people are the key to overcoming poverty, and that is why we work through volunteers. Drawn from many countries and all walks of life, they give their expertise, time and passion, and they share their skills with partner organizations ranging from grassroots groups to government agencies. It is a powerful, cost-effective way to create lasting results.
VSO implements a consortium project named ‘Promoting Inclusive Resilience and Accountability through Youth Association Strengthening’ (PRAYAS) which aims to strengthen the role of Youth-Led Civil Society Organizations (YLCs) to effectively engage youth and other marginalized groups in local Climate and Disaster Resilience (CDR) processes in Nepal’s new federal context.
