In Nepal, women and girls face discrimination on multiple levels by virtue of their sex, caste, and ethnicity. 

Many women and girls are unable to fully participate in school, family life, and economic activities because of discrimination and violence. Recognising that early adolescence represents a unique window of opportunity to address these challenges, Save the Children developed and tested a package of gender transformative interventions for children, their parents and community.
