Nepal post-earthquakes

The work in Nepal continues.  TT has been to Nepal 4 times since December 2016, to catch up on the various projects.  Together with Bishnu Shrestha in Nepal, the dental teams, and David Donald from Australia working on sanitation and post earthquake reconstruction support, TT has reconnected with the projects and will continue to strengthen the links to Nepali communities and organisations.  More information soon, in the meantime there is news regarding sanitation and post earthquake reconstruction support available at Healthabitat O/S

Fading eastern light over western NSW plains on re-entry to Sydney.

Tough visit to Nepal this time. Struggling economy, massive inflation, increasing suicide rates, fewer and fewer jobs. Small wonder the drain of young people coursing out of the country, mainly aged 18-30 years, continues to grow. On average 3-4000 per day.

Villages are emptying. Schools are closing due to falling numbers of students. Families are breaking up, leaving the parents to grow into either a lonely retirement in Nepal or face moving to another country where they are with their kids and grandkids but without their daily neighbours and local community.

It’s great to see so many beautiful Nepalese working and helping in Australia and other countries, and seeking opportunities they can’t find in their home country but the social, structural and political fracturing back in Nepal is deepening. The next few years will be very interesting.

Namaste!!🙏🏽 🙏🏽
