Aawaaz | Breaking the silence
Aawaaj is a non-governmental and non-profit social organization established in 1999 by the joint initiatives of professionals with strong hope to demonstrate capacity against violence and discrimination of children and women in Midwestern region, Nepal .
The sexual and domestic violence of young children and women has not yet discussed openly. Although increasing instances of abuse are being reported in newspapers in urban areas, there is a tendency of denying and concealing different forms of violence by the family and community at large in rural areas.
