Survey: Menstruation-related practices among urban youth

Published

on

This survey is to be participated only by girls. If you are a male, and landed up here for whatsoever reason, you can play a part by distributing this survey form to your female friends.

Mensuration taboo has still been widely practiced in Nepali society, despite the rise in literacy and progressivism and rigorous attempt from all sides to normalize it. Those who keep the taboo alive have their own reasons and those who are fighting against it are still trying to understand why, especially educated groups, still follow the tradition despite knowing there is no neither science nor a rationality behind it.

This survey is conducted to understand the matter much more in general perspectives, their reasons, and their thoughts towards it; and to see the future of the taboo based on the data collected.

We would like to thank you in advance for participating in this survey. Because of your small contribution, we get to understand the matter from your eyes and state of minds, based on which we can have the more realistic and pragmatic views towards the issue.

Survey: Usage of banking services in Nepal

Published

on

By

Banks play a vital role in the modern economy. Despite being a significant aspect of everyday life, there has been very little or no research done on the banking sector of Nepal from consumers’ point of view. Also, although banks offer a variety of services, majority people still understand banks for its traditional roles of lending and borrowing money.

This survey is thus conducted in an attempt to learn overall banking experience from consumers’ point of view. This survey is supported by Muktinath Bank. We will publish an article later through this website based on this survey result, to make it publicly available. We believe that this survey will help the banks in the future to take it as a reference to formulate their products and services.

This form is completely anonymous, which means we won’t be knowing your identity. So, please try to be as honest as you can. You can CLICK HERE for the survey form just in case you could not access the form below.

Published

on

We had asked the KMAG community to share what motivates them to carry on day-to-day life with a positive feeling and high hope. Amidst the challenging world, chaotic socioeconomy, and boring lifestyle, and negativity-charged social media, we wanted to gather motivations from our followers to inspire rests in need of some positivity and boosted energy. This is what we collected:

Every morning I wake up, I know there are people I am gonna meet, tasks that I am gonna do, things that I am gonna see. Every morning I know that all these people and things gonna teach me something new; I will be wiser than yesterday, more knowledgeable, and able to enjoy life a little more

All my short term and long term goals that I planned for a better future of me and my family

There are more problems to face. Today, this isn’t the last resort

Having breakfast over a table with family

The purpose of my life that I discovered. Since the time I realized my purpose, I made a pledge to myself that I will contribute something to promote the well-being of orphans and underprivileged children

The intention and ambition to be independent by all means

Urge to know things about life and society and wtf are we doing actually on earth

That you are alive. Many don’t take it as a big deal. Being alive is the greatest thing that is happening to you right now

Making myself capable to earn enough so that I can afford or buy anything without thinking twice

The fact that there are far bigger worries in the world than mine!

Might fall dead any moment

Pursuit of happiness is what motivates me

Hope of being a billionaire someday and do every possible good thjngs as much as i can. This keeps me alive

My hopes and dreams to make a lovely family just like my parents made us

I have a family that loves and supports me unconditionally, so it motivates me to go extra mile for them

I was destined to live this life ! And I am grateful for my existence !

The fact that I only have one life
