Nepal’s Urmila Chaudhary Wins Global Anti-Racism Award
Urmila Chaudhary from Nepal has won the prestigious Global Anti-Racism Championship Award, presented by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken. Urmila, a former child servant, co-founded the Freed Kamlari Development Forum, advocating for the rights of former bonded laborers and marginalized communities in Nepal. Her efforts were pivotal in the abolition of the Kamlari system, which sold young girls into servitude. Through her activism, she has established 42 cooperatives, empowering survivors economically. Urmila’s ongoing legal studies strengthen her mission to fight systemic racism and create lasting change for Nepal’s marginalized populations.
