“First you have to learn to take them as your own child. Then you will feel the sorrow and then the strength comes out from you to protect them.”

Anuradha Koirala is the Founder and Executive Director of Maiti Nepal.

Born in Nepal and former English teacher, Ms. Koirala started Maiti Nepal in a small house in Kathmandu with her own savings.

Today she is a widely recognized activist and lecturer who has dedicated her life to combating the sexual exploitation of women and children.
