The international Day of Girl is an important celebration but one commemoration day is not enough. We need to link these kind of events with long term advocacy initiatives at national and local level. Think of a national GIRL Coalition that brings together multiple actors like NGOs, INGOs and Donors. Think of mainstreaming girl related issues at local level in the existing forums.

It was a great fun, huge turn out, really incredible. It started very slow... because I and the ENGAGE Team were waiting in the wrong place in Basathapur but instead the rally started from Bhrikuti Mandap. We made up for the loss time and joined the Carnival

I wish more people, abled body persons would be there this morning but it does not matter. we were there and it was good

You might think that philanthropy is just about money. You might assume that only able persons can get involved in social work and philanthropy while those living with disabilities are just at the receiving ends. Nothing more wrong. Sushil and Bashudev are proving that other way around is possible and doable. Actually their way is the best way. A new culture of giving has born.
