The Australian ambassador to Nepal, Leanne Johnstone, said that men in Nepal should also be educated about women's rights and women's issues.

In the fifth edition of the 'Nirvik Nari' program organized by Nari Magazine, a co-publication of Kantipur Media Group, on Wednesday, Ambassador Johnstone said that because there are many opportunities and challenges in Nepal, women should be given education to men.

'I think there are opportunities to educate even boys in Nepal about girls' rights and women's rights,' she said, 'young women can be involved in public life, school, workplace, public places, politics and business.'

Access to education is a big challenge for Nepal. It's not just between boys and girls,' she said, 'We say that the level of education in the valley is very good, but the situation is not the same for the whole of Nepal.' Therefore, she says, we need to talk about access to education. She said that it is not only the education of technology and curriculum, but also the education connected with life. He also said that he should empower women and have women representatives to raise their voice.
