Established in 2013, Bihani Social Venture is Nepal’s first social enterprise working to foster age and disability inclusive communities focusing on older adults. To promote a society inclusive of older people, Bihani offers innovative and diverse services and activities. Our primary focus is on individuals above the age of 50 (however not limited to it) while our secondary focus is on families, institutions and organisations who directly or indirectly work or interact with elders.
To provide age inclusive services with focus on mental and physical well-being of older adults in order: to address the issues of loneliness, dependency, and loss of confidence due to retirement, relocation, health status or family member’s migration or busy lifestyle, through social engagement activities; to create platforms where our elders can contribute their skills, expertise and economically participate through linkage with bazaars, like-minded organisations, companies and individuals; to address ageist stereotypes and create awareness on the changing demographics, the need for positive outlook to active ageing, and to promote age friendly communities where we want to age in.
