Host

“SAPTAHA AAJIWAN” means life-changing week. It is a community outreach campaign designed and initiated by a group of USYC fellows 2019/21 as a part of Civic Engagement Project (CEP). The campaign emphasizes addressing healthcare issues affecting remote communities through policy advocacy and policy discussion. It supports and advocates transparency regarding major health issues in Nepal, as well as healthcare-related plans, policies, and programs that contribute to increase awareness and improve the health status of communities, beginning at the grass roots level. This campaign also aims to provide a holistic discussion on pressing health issues on some communicable/non-communicable diseases. Likewise, we strive to promote dialogue by exploring social norms that influence people’s behaviors towards seeking timely medical attention.
