Fighting for change
Bibi was studying in Kathmandu, Nepal, forty miles
away from her family home when there was an
earthquake.
‘When I came home to my village, I saw how very sad
everyone was,’ she explained. ‘When I arrived, the
community was living in big tents. Everyone was in
one place, so there was a lot of noise. People were
terrified of the wind and the rain. However, they
believed it was better to try to wait patiently for help.’
The earthquake destroyed 500,000 homes and 16,000
schools, and 8,000 people lost their lives. After seeing
the damage, brave Bibi wanted to help her village.
‘If we didn’t move on, we would continue to live in
fear. I encouraged my family to build a proper shelter
so my brother and father got the wood. Then I realized
that it wasn’t just my house that was important. I
wanted to help my community, too, so I started
volunteering.’ Two years later, Bibi, who has kindly
and generously given up all her time, is still working
to rebuild her village.
In the future, Bibi wants to help build safer homes for
more families across her country. While other young
people have decided to move abroad, Bibi feels it’s
important that she stays and helps her country. ‘This is
the time Nepal needs its young people the most.’
