Some Challenges During Implementation in India and Nepal 

# data[].attributes.body
1. Long term - 5 year projects

2. Sometimes challenges with partners

3. need to document best practices better

4.  Explore more opportunities to link with Dachser website photos short films

5.  Less availability of decent employment opportunities is demotivating youths to join short term vocational training course, rather they are more inclined for higher education

6. Girls and women are getting skilled but lack of financial sources to open own shops, buying sewing machines, lack of market linkage, lack of linkage with govt. schemes  is a challenge

7. Sensitization of male members of family towards gender equality is lacking to respect the choices of girls and women, when they assert their choices/rights in families many times there is a backlash/families become hostile.

8. Engaging youth for the entire project duration (5 years) has been difficult due to migration

9. Youth participation in campaigns and networks at National level needs to be ensured in the core committee

10. Geography and difficult terrain in Nepal posed some challenges
