Maiti Nepal's mission is to prevent human trafficking by reaching out to the community, particularly children and young women by raising awareness level of community and extending life skills so that children and women are not trafficked into different forms of abuse and exploitation.
Steered by aspirations of affected people, we pursue our mission by releasing children and women forced into sexual exploitation; extend support to survivors and protect vulnerable girls by empowering them through personal participation and expression to enhance livelihood skills.
