Expression of Interest (EOI): Radio Jingle Production and Broadcasting
Nepal Disabled Women Association (NDWA) was established in 2054 (1998) adopting the values of the fundamental rights and responsibilities provided by the constitution of Nepal. It aims to support Women with Disabilities (WWDs) to pursue their rights, and provide them protection and livelihood support. Unless WWDs from all sections of the Nepalese community understand and exercise their human rights, particularly as ensured by the UN Convention on Rights of Persons with Disabilities, their lives will not be bright and prosperous. Therefore, NDWA promotes programs to build the capacity of the WWDs living in both urban and remote areas of the country, enabling them to become capable, empowered, and proactive in exercising their rights. It is also vital to empower women from other disadvantaged communities, such as women with disabilities from Dalit and Madhesi community, to build their self- esteem and confidence. In this context, NDWA plays an important role to advocate on the issues of WWDs, including rights to education, health, employment, rehabilitation and social security.
