Providing access to healthcare and sanitation to keep the population thriving, is key. At VIN we want to create awareness in local communities by teaching and educating rural communities as well as facilitating first-hand medical care. Nepal faces many challenges when it comes to public health. In the rural communities, the government offers very few facilities to support the health of its people. With illiteracy and poverty levelsbeing high, many people do not have the meansto change their health, sanitation, and hygiene practices and remain unaware of the major health risks and how to minimize them.
