"They called me a ‘burden’, a ‘witch’ but I proved I’m not that at all. With support, I found strength. With skills, I found purpose. I earn, I speak, I dream this is my life and I’m living it with pride." - Manju Chaudhary

संयुक्त राष्ट्रसंघको अपाङ्गता सम्बन्धी महासन्धिको पक्ष राष्ट्रहरूको १८औं बैठक (COSP18) मा कोशिशका कार्यकारी निर्देशक मातृका देवकोटाले प्यानल वक्ताको रूपमा नेपालको प्रतिनिधित्व गर्नुभयो।

सो अवसरमा उहाँले "नवीन वित्तीय प्रणाली (Innovative financing) र आत्मनिर्भरता’ विषयमा मन्तव्य दिँदै अर्थमुखी दृष्टिकोणको सट्टा अवसरमूलक संरचनाको आवश्यकता औँल्याउनु भयो।

आर्थीक रकम भन्दा पनि अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरूलाई अवसरहरू दिनु आवश्यक छ। उनीहरूको आफ्नै गतिविधिहरूलाई वित्तीय रूपमा सहयोग गर्नुपर्छ ताकि दिगो परिवर्तन सम्भव होस् ।

अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरू आफैं नेतृत्व गर्न सक्ने वातावरण निर्माण गर्नु आजको यथार्थपरक आवश्यकतामा उहाँले जोड दिनुभयो।

मानसिक स्वास्थ्य तथा मनोसामाजिक अपाड्गता भएका ब्यक्तिको जिविकोपार्जनमा सहयोग पुर्याउने उद्देश्य सहित पालुङटार नगरपालिका वडा नं ४, गोरखा निवासी एक व्यक्तिलाई कोशिशले बाख्रा प्रदान गरेको छ ।

आर्थिक अवस्था अत्यन्तै कमजोर रहेका र अल्पकालीन सुरक्षित केन्द्रमा उपचारपछि परिवारमा पुर्नस्थापना गरिएका उक्त ब्यक्तिलाई वडा अध्यक्ष मान बहादुर पौडेल र वडा सदस्य दिलमाया कुमालको उपस्थितिमा ३ वटा बोयर जातका बाख्रा हस्तान्तरण हो ।

बाख्रा हस्तान्तरण पछि मानसिक स्वास्थ्य, मनोसामाजिक सुस्वास्थ्यका लागि परिवार र समुदायको भूमिकाको बारेमा समेत छलफल गरिएको थियो ।

Our Story

KOSHISH is the voice of people living with mental health distress.

KOSHISH’s Strategy is a rights-based approach following a twin track model. Firstly, assist people living with mental health problems manage their issues and find support. Secondly, we advocate for the implementation and continuous updates of mental health policies and programs in Nepal. During our projects and work we emphasize community level support and participation, as this makes us able to provide a holistic support system (clinical, psychological and social).

KOSHISH has been working on mental health and psycho-social issues since 2004. It was established by an individual who had himself experienced mental health and psycho-social issues, Mr. Matrika Devkota. He first began by voluntarily rescuing and rehabilitating people living with mental health problems and In 2008, established KOSHISH as a national, non-profit self help NGO.

By demonstrating that mental health and psycho-social issues are manageable and curable, we have been able to help people living on the street, rescue and then reintegrate them back into their own communities through various programs.
