Drama - "Chudiyeko Sambandha" - Download

A Street Drama "Chudieko sambandha"(Broken relationship):

This street drama is to raise awareness in order to reduce child-trafficking in the remote district of Humla. It emphasizes the importance of parental care for the overall development of children, physically, emotionally, and socially.  Family separation is the major problem in Humla due to child-trafficking and the search for better education. 

This drama describes a poor family who sent their children with an influential person "Raja Sahib" to Kathmandu and end up finding their child was trafficked for inter-country adoption. It also describes the consequences children face when they are kept in illegal orphanages. It also describes the mental depression of the parents to lose their child forever.

This project is supported by UNICEF and Terre des Hommes Foundations through The Himalayan Innovative Society in Humla.  Our main objective is to reduce child-trafficking and inform the population about family and community-based alternative care in Humla.  This drama has already been performed in three VDCs in the project area and aired on local FM radio, Kailash FM, in Simikot, under the "Humli Chhachhoriko Danko" (Voice of Humli Children) program.  The radio program was supported by the ISIS Foundation.
