Endline Survey for Bezos SOAR Udaan Program- Cohort 1 and 2

The Bezos SOAR Udaan Project is an initiative implemented by CARE Nepal with the support of the Bezos Family Foundation under the global SOAR (Strengthening Opportunities for Adolescent Resilience) program. The project aims to improve access to quality education for out-of-school adolescent girls, particularly in marginalized communities of Nepal. It operates in three of Nepal’s most disadvantaged provinces that is Madhesh, Lumbini and Karnali where poverty, early marriage, gender-based discrimination, and social norms often prevent girls from continuing their education. FDM was contracted for the endline evaluation of the study.
