HAPPY FACES OF COMMUNITY

Massive hit of earthquake to Nepal on April damaged whole nation. In a same way Sindhuli was also devastated by the earthquake. Golanjor Rural Municipality ward no.6 Baseswor was also affected badly by earthquake. At same time soil erosion occurred due to earthquake. Drinking Water supply system was completely damaged as a result communities were facing problem on safe drinking water. Due to scarcity of water they were in problem for drinking water, bathing, washing clothes. They used to bath once in a two weeks & used to wash their clothes after long period. There was scarcity of water for domestic animal and for their kitchen gardening.

At a same time Relief Nepal and CARITAS Nepal went to Baseswor after the need assessment and Ghoksila Water Supply Scheme was constructed which helped and brought more happiness in the face of community people. Ghoksila Water supply scheme is located in former Baseswor 8 Ghoksila presently in Golanjor rural municipality. It is approximately 45 km from headquarter of Sindhuli. Ghoksila communities are in east access to safe drinking water. In a same way Ghoksila water supply scheme provided additional support to community people. People are using waste water from washing clothes, bathing in vegetable farming. Waste water is collected in a pond and thus it is used in vegetable farming.

We have Rukmani Baral single women aged 58 years from Baseswor 8 Ghoksila who is doing vegetable farming .Vegetables like Caulis, Brinjal, Coriander, Spinach, Garlic, Oninin simi. She has two sons but they are separated from her. In a same way her elder son is the member of Water Users Committee. Before she used to buy vegetables from the market but now she is farming in a large scale as a result she sells the vegetable. She earns some amount of money for her daily livelihood. She is one of the representatives of community. We have many more success like her in Ghoksila. We have Dor prasad Baral, Kalimaya Sarki, Santosh Thapa like her who has done agriculture farming from the waste water. Not only vegetable farming

cattle's are also getting enough water to drink. Kitchen gardening feeding to cattle's are the best usage of water in the Ghoksila Community. A community expresses their gratitude and

happiness towards Relief Nepal and CARITAS Nepal.

NERP: A Savior

Januka Shrestha is one of the recipients of drinking water facility provided by Caritas Nepal under NERP. She is 32 years old who lives in Golanjor 6 ward number-4 with her family members. There are 13 members in her family including her. She looks after her family and depends on agriculture for basic needs. Fig: Januka Shrestha washing hand at tap

Previously she used to drink water from the river. As there was no drinking water facility in her areas and due to the lack of knowledge about the hygiene they used to drink water from river. They were unaware about the water they drink is contaminated. They doesn’t use any technique of purifying water due to which her family member used to get health problems but they were unable to recognize about the problem made by the contaminated water. But, after Caritas and Relief Nepal started working in WASH sector in their VDC, drinking water facility is provided to them along with the awareness about hygiene, cleanliness and so on. After they got awareness about the drinking water and hygiene they started the different technique of purifying water, along with they started keeping the drinking water pots covered after the use. She gave awareness to her every family member to keep their surrounding clean. They started washing hands after doing works and before eating as well. According to Januka Shrestha, "After following the awareness given by Caritas and Relief Nepal my family members are more concerned about drinking water hygiene due to which they are getting less problem in their health." She is involved in Agricultural group of livelihood activities. She reused the waste water to cultivate the vegetable. As there is problem of irrigation in

III. Rights and Advocacy: Bring about positive changes in attitudes and policies concerning marginalized children, youth, adult (Woman and Man) community through their organization and empowerment. IV. Non-Discriminatory: Build respect for individual/human right across religious, region, caste, political lines and gender. V. Gender sensitive: Provide equal opportunity for women and man at work place and community. VI. Accountability and Transparency: Organization will be accountable to the targeted community and eager to share all information with all concerned and stake holders including line agencies. Relief Nepal as one of the leading Ngo of Sindhuli District worked in five thematic area. So, to implement the project it coordinates the local and government bodies. While implementing it coordinate with the local communities and discuss the implementing strategy before implementing the project. After the implementation the project is shown fairly with the community member through social audit and publishing the hoarding board in the area where project is implemented. This helps people how much money is being spent in the community and what is the method of implementing the project. As well Suggestion Box is placed in every working area so that people of the community member can raise their issues and problem to the organization. All those issues and problem that are raised through the suggestion box are addressed through discussion and meeting within the community. This shows the responsibility of NGOs and their commitment towards development of society. VII. Capacity building: Developing skills, practice and attitude for positive change. Building the capacity of new and current staff is an essential part of programme implementation. Basic training for all staff should cover guiding principles, goals and strategy of the organization. To boost the staff and create the working environment Relief Nepal provides trainings before implementing any project to the staff. This helps to boost the staff and help in creating working environment in the office.

VIII. Inclusion: Inclusiveness of target community and disadvantaged groups in decision making and implementing their programs.
