Women were very happy to know that so many programs have already organized in different places. Many women groups were formed lately so they regretted in the late joining and informed that they are committed to participate in each programs organized by VIN.

The initiation, taken by VIN, to build the Co-operative buildings in Jiturphedi has motivated women of Kavresthali to mobilize themselves and others women. When the participated women were asked about the objectives of their women group formed under VIN, mostly replied about to have their own micro credit co-operatives from group during the introduction session. After the brief summary of all the attainments of VIN, the participant women were divided into the five different groups in order to have the equal participation for the feedbacks of programs. Each group was asked to fill the form with questionnaires and durable reasons of their answers. And also they wrote the tentative demanded activities and available time for 2018. The women were really happy to have this kind of session to feel the ownership of upcoming project conducted by VIN.
