The Safe Passage Program, a joint project of FAYA Nepal and CARE Nepal with support from the European Commission, was introduced in our village. The program’s educators shared vital information about HIV and AIDS, focusing on people going abroad for work and their families. Through this program, I learned that young people traveling to India for work are at a higher risk of contracting HIV. Fearing for my husband's safety, I advised him to come back home from India to avoid the risk of infection.
