When we faced a difficult situation in healthy maternity
Statistics of Women’s health situation
It is reported that at least 500 children have died during the decade long conflict related violence since 1996. The true number of children killed is likely to be far higher then this figure. Nepal has been gripped by a brutal internal armed conflict between the security forces and Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) rebels for the last 11 years, during which more than 13,000 people have lost their lives and many lost their relatives and business so as the child become orphan. It is estimated that since the beginning of the conflict the CPN (Maoist) have abducted tens of thousands of school children, along with their teachers, for "political education" sessions. Typically, (Maoist) cadres enter a high school and force all the students and teachers to accompany them to a remote location where hundreds of children from across the area are forcibly gathered for these sessions. . In July 2005 the International Labour Organisation (ILO) predicted that between 10,000 and 15,000 children would be displaced in Nepal during 2005 alone. A survey in 1997 estimated that there were 261,000 children working for wages in Nepal. It is estimated that at least 1 million children in Nepal are working as child labourers in difficult circumstances, often as slaves in carpet factories, brick kilns, domestic service, agriculture, plantations, construction sites, transportation industry, stone quarries, and mines and as migrant workers. It is estimated that at least 10,600 children are working as domestics in Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur in valley and over 31,000 are in the 33 municipalities of Nepal. The study findings estimated that 12,000 children are trafficked every year from Nepal. The trafficking of children is a considerable problem. While accurate numbers are not available, it is estimated that 6,000 to 8,000 Nepalese girls are annually trafficked out of Nepal to India between the age of 9 and 16, which is increasing every year. A survey sponsored by the Central Social Welfare Board indicated that the population of Nepalese women and child victims of commercial sexual exploitation in Indian brothels would be around 70,000 to 100,000, of which 30% were below 18 and 40% were induced when they were below 18 years of age.
Nepal’s Health System
Being the state party of the convention on the Right of Child; on the rights of child we have a landmark to advocate freely on the rights of children. As Nepal has already signed in different child related conventions, treaty and member of the international organizations the government has the responsibility to protect every child for their right. Conventions on the Right of Child in 1989 (CRC) has clearly emphasized on four basic rights of the children as Right to live, Right to be protected, Right of Development and Right of participation. There have been a lot of efforts for ensuring the basic rights of children by the Government side and privet. But the problem in some extend has been solved but the still the effort is not enough.
During these conditions of poverty people die due to starvation, exploitation and torture by land lords, natural disasters, road mishap, long term violence and their children become destitute and orphans. They will have no one to be looked after. Even the nearest guardians don't look after them because of the same poverty or they don't want to share their burden. These children are either left to work at home and at hotels as servant or in the street as rag pickers and beggars, but what about those who have no one to look after, no food no shelter, no education, what would they become in the future? Considering all above matters TN – Team Nepal was established in December 2007 and is a non-profitable and non-government organization. TN is founded to assist the children of above categories and discriminated communities who live in the remote and hilly region of Nepal. All of such tribes are as Sunuwar, Tamang, Gurung, Magar, Thami, Damai, Rai, Lumbu, Tharu, Sarki, Kami, Pode, Danuwar etc, who are ethnic people of the village.
Our first initiative began in Shindhupalchok district where child-abuse and the trafficking of young village girls are commonly known in the world, still we do not discriminate any children who are in problem wherever they are from We will continuously expand our activities into other districts of Nepal. Despite of very limited resources; we are able to rescue children of harsh realities of this region and being sheltered, fed and educated in one of the best Community School in Talamarang V.D.C. The children are brought up in a caring and homely environment. We are very much aware about children's needs, desire and wishes and rights. Time is very competitive and hardship. So, we committed our dedications for the welfare of these children. We have afforded to make them as one of the best citizens of the country who is independent to own. Lastly, all of the foundations run with contribution of well-wishers and people having helping attitude from around the world. We cannot stay-behind without expressing gratitude to our pioneer who are dedicating on fund raising projects and encouraging us working in children welfare sector for long term in future.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
Team Nepal (TN) and the (Irish NGO.s name) have quite a successful working partnership. Over our past relationships projects have been collaborated that involved both the expertise of both Team Nepal and Irish NGO. My Home is a project that has been identified by both stakeholders as an immediate need of Nepal’s Orphan Children with both parties having vested interests in seeing the project through. The agreement stands that all the financial assistance to make the project independent during the cycle of 3 years will be supplied by Irish NGO while Team Nepal will utilize all the resources in the best way, manages every activity to ensure My Home will be independent with in maximum of 4 years with the help of all the strategy. From the outset of the project the Orphan Children that were acknowledged as having the most immediate need for cure were identified in different districts.
With this in mind and also considering the principles and mission of Team Nepal an Implementation strategy was formulated in the following way:
It is also expected that through out the project cycle, new orphan children will be identified and conversely absorbed into My Home for complete support and a better future. There is a target that by 2009; 50 Orphan children situated in and out of the Sindhupalchock district and all over Nepal will become involved with the project.

My Home is intended to be a long lasting project, one that is maintained through constant relations with project partners, use of local knowledge and local resources. It is through this that the Orphan Children will enjoy a complete cure and assessments on building their future carrier in different fields throughout their life. Sustainability of the project throughout the period thus implies effective achievement of the proposed objectives.
Furthermore sustainability of the project and also the life of those orphans after completion of education and termination from My Home are secured through personal capacity building, regular contacts and relation with working partners and different organizations for their adult ages. It is the intention of the project cycle that while the Children may grow up and leave the auspice provided by My Home, the knowledge they have gathered through the project life will allow them to take control of their own future and destiny throughout their lives.

Overviews
Nepal is among the poorest and least developed countries in the world with 42% of its population living below the poverty line. It is a landlocked country. Nepal is one of the Developing Country having very low per capital income and least employment opportunities so the family couldn’t afford education to all of their family member. Out of 27.7 million population (growth rate 1.9%), almost 56 percent of them are uneducated, and more then 80% of children even in this context are out of quality education. which shows there is a need of speedy construction, expansions, quality improvement, equality in education whether that is a commercial private school or a government School. One third of total population are the school aged children and many of them do not have access to the basic education. The condition of Children in Talamarang was almost same, thus we have decided to work on Terse Secondary School, one of the Community School situated in Sindhupalchock District of Nepal. We believe on the satisfaction we will get from helping people when feeling unhappy.
People can hardly Invest 3.4% of their income in education and the actual situation of a teacher is covering 36 students. Nepal has almost lowest per capital income figuring US$272.4 (2005). Where GDP contribution from agriculture is 38.20% (2005) with implementation of 79% of total manpower in the sector(2005). There is also very high unemployment rate due to lack of enough infrastructure development and not suitable environment for multinational manufacturing industries. The international community's role of funding more than 60% of Nepal's development budget and more than 28% of total budgetary expenditures will likely continue as a major ingredient of growth life expectancy 62.7 years.
Statistics of School Children
According to the research, total literacy rate is 47.9% (2005), where as only 29.9% of the female are in that level of literacy and 64.7% of male population are literate. And it is also shown in the report that fertility rate is 3.5:1 means a women gives birth to three and half children in average and provide all their basic needs, which became impossible in many families having lowest per capital income thus the problem of lack of education and in many cases the start of street life became their final choices.
It is reported that at least 500 children have died during the decade long conflict related violence since 1996. The true number of children killed is likely to be far higher then this figure. Nepal has been gripped by a brutal internal armed conflict between the security forces and Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) rebels for the last 11 years, during which more than 13,000 people have lost their lives and many lost their relatives and business so as the child become orphan. It is estimated that since the beginning of the conflict the CPN (Maoist) have abducted tens of thousands of school children, along with their teachers, for "political education" sessions. Typically, (Maoist) cadres enter a high school and force all the students and teachers to accompany them to a remote location where hundreds of children from across the area are forcibly gathered for these sessions. In July 2005 the International Labour Organisation (ILO) predicted that between 10,000 and 15,000 children would be displaced in Nepal during 2005 alone. A survey in 1997 estimated that there were 261,000 children working for wages in Nepal. It is estimated that at least 1 million children in Nepal are working as child labourers in difficult circumstances, often as slaves in carpet factories, brick kilns, domestic service, agriculture, plantations, construction sites, transportation industry, stone quarries, and mines and as migrant workers. It is estimated that at least 10,600 children are working as domestics in Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur in valley and over 31,000 are in the 33 municipalities of Nepal. The study findings estimated that 12,000 children are trafficked every year from Nepal. The trafficking of children is a considerable problem. While accurate numbers are not available, it is estimated that 6,000 to 8,000 Nepalese girls are annually trafficked out of Nepal to India between the age of 9 and 16, which is increasing every year.

Government Education Policy
Government is putting very little effort on increasing the level of literacy rates so many community school running 10th classes has to depend on 3 or 4 government paid teachers and continuous donation of volunteers and or the part of development budget of the village. Poor children are suffering the most from the government inability to fund school supplies and required number of teachers. The financing stability of those schools are very poor because of regular heavy payments to the teachers and staff salary and other running expenses.
Provide the true meaning of education and give every student the chance to develop themselves the best in the society and also on the field of his/her interest.
To improve teaching standards through quality education and capacity building among the teachers.
To increase literacy rates in the Sndhupalchowk district and other Rural parts of Nepal.
To ensure the stability of the Terse Secondary School and other community schools.
To increase the health and vitality of school aged children at Terse Secondary School
To encourage education for every children focusing ethnic communities and the female population
To increase the Government quota of current teaching staff for Terse Secondary School.
To ensure the safety of school aged children at Terse Secondary School.
To effectively reduce poverty in the Talamarang and surrounding VDCs, Sindhupalchowk District.
TEAM Nepal and the Terse Secondary School have quite a successful working partnership. Over the past years projects have been collaborate that involved both the expertise of both Terse Secondary Shcool and TEAM Nepal. TEAM young for the younger is a project that has been identified by both Nepalese and foreign social workers, some college students, professionals and stakeholders of the school themselves to fulfil the immediate needs of the schools. The agreement stands that volunteering services, managerial services and financing assistance for the school buildings and infrastructure will be provided by TEAM Nepal while Terse School will in turn implement the decision in best way as per the agreement and focus on the quality education through the recruitment of qualified teaching staffs. From the outset of the project the Children that were acknowledged as to be given priority are from different backed casts and ethnic group.
With this in mind and also considering the principles and mission of TEAM Nepal an Implementation strategy was formulated in the following way:
1. Contacting partner the Terse School on support for the data needed and also their very urgent need in the school.
2. Identification of Educational institutions and formalising of partnership agreements.
3. Organization of International Volunteers identified through the TEAM Nepal volunteer structure.
4. Assistance on improving the quality of education through regular field visit, supervision and periodical evaluation of the progress report.
5. Assessing over the life of the project the immediate and long term advisory and managerial needs of the School.
It is expected that each program will operate within a time period of between 6months to one year in each of the educational institutions identified according to each institutions size a timetable.
It is also expected that through out the project cycle, new educational institutions having similar or even worse condition will be identified and conversely absorbed into the improvement assessment timeframe. There is a target that by 2010; 10 schools situated in and out of the Sindhupalchowk and surrounding districts will become involved with the project.
We place volunteers in rural elementary schools an hour outside of Kathmandu to assist the local teachers with their English classes and other subjects. These volunteers are able to experience living in rural villages and will observe the true meaning of

Long-term continuous benefit for the children of the area is possible and many children and their family will be benefited.
Social and economic development of the student, school and society is constructed through a educated people in the future.
School absenteeism rates due to bad school environment is decreased.
TEAM young for the younger is intended to be a long lasting project, one that is maintained through constant relations with project partners, use of local knowledge and local resources. It is through this that the Children will receive periodic medical assessments on site throughout the school year. Sustainability of the project throughout the years thus implies effective achievement of the proposed objectives.
Furthermore sustainability of healthy living beyond the school years, will be achieved through personal capacity building on the ways of hygienic living and food preparation best practice. It is the intention of the project cycle that while the Children may grow up and leave the auspice of the provided medical assessments, the knowledge they have gathered through the project life will allow them to take control of their own medical destiny throughout their adult years.
