Meet Chuna: Empowering women in rural Nepal – a READ Global video

Chuna Devi – a mother of three in Nepal – once said that “being born as a girl is worthless.” But at the age of 47, she found self-worth and changed her life by finally learning to read at a READ Center, starting a women’s study group, and investing in her family’s education. Today, her goal is to empower other illiterate women in Nepal, and convince them that it’s never to late to learn to read.
