Sajha Sawal is a weekly political debate programme broadcast across Nepal on radio and TV. Broadcast at primetime on Sunday evenings, the show encourages dialogue and debate between communities and their leaders.Cooperatives include non-profit community organizations and businesses that are owned and managed by the people who use their services or by the people who work there and take on a variety of forms, ranging from officially registered cooperatives to loosely organized groups of neighbors, family, and kin networks. Cooperatives are based on values like self-help, democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity.These values, among other aspects of cooperatives, are particularly useful in empowering women through membership.In statements in advance of International Women’s Day in early 2013, President of the International Cooperative Alliance, Dame Pauline Green, said, “Cooperative businesses have done so much to help women onto the ladder of economic activity. With that comes community respect, political legitimacy and influence.”
Cooperatives allow women who might have been isolated and working individually to band together and create economies of scale as well as increase their own bargaining power in the market.
