In early February I had the opportunity to travel with members of the Asian Forum team to conduct site visits of the Home Stay project which was launched in January 2015 in the Kalabang, Kaski and Ranagaun, Tanahun Districts of Nepal. The Home Stay Project is a division of the JMDI (Joint Migration and Development Initiative) Programme with Asian Human Rights and Culture Development Forum, and is funded by Swiss Development Corp (SDC) and the European Union. The Home Stay Project is one of two JMDI Programmes currently operating in Nepal, the other being facilitated through OXFAM.
