Au Népal, un Village, une Amitié en marche (ANUVAM) Rapcha Basa

AGM ANUVAM 2024, report

At their general meeting on 04 and 05 May 2024, the members of the ANUVAM association listened attentively to Louis’ report on this autumn’s trip and watched with interest the photos and videos brought back by the group.

The trip to the village was a rich source of observations on village life, details of how the schools, dispensary and town hall work, etc., but above all it was a rich source of encounters, as one of the participants in the trip, Marie-Christine, can testify.

Thanks to detailed emails from Yadav, the members were able to study the requests for support from the villagers of Rapcha for the coming financial year (2024-2025).

Following the discussions, the following measures were adopted:

New humanitarian initiatives following the AGM – May 2018

In the village of Rapcha, the association ANUVAM continues to show its solidarity and support for reconstruction, with perseverance and efficiency.

Excellent turnout at the General Meeting, a healthy financial position enabling us to commit to new projects, and a positive 2017/2018 business report all reflect the energy that drives our association. We reached a major milestone in March 2018, providing funding for a sixth house for a disadvantaged family in the village, rebuilt using earthquake-resistant, local materials developed by our technical partner CAPA.

This excellent outcome bolsters our credibility within the community and amongst recently-elected local leaders. The GM reviewed the requests for assistance submitted by the new mayor Asherman Magar, well known to the association, who informed us of the community’s priorities, in order to consolidate development and reduce serious internal inequalities.

Rapcha report – may 2018

Earthquake resistant (anti-seismic) house project

The two mega earthquakes in April and May of 2015 have shaken the whole of Nepal and made colossal damages throughout the country. Reconstruction began after the strong aftershock on May and ANUVAM decided to help in the process.
To begin with six families were chosen from Rapchha who were/are in dire situation either financially or from family situation perspective. The houses of the chosen families were damaged severely during the earthquake and most of them were unable to build a new house on their own due to their very week financial status. Some of them were single parents and many of them had more than four dependent children.
