One Heart Worldwide OHW is an INGO working to save the lives & promote the well-being of mothers & their babies in🇳🇵 Since 2010, our programs have benefited 310,000 pregnancies.

No woman should have to worry about her own life as she prepares to give birth. One Heart Worldwide understands the needs of pregnant women and their newborn infants. For over a decade, our commitment has been to ensure that no Nepali woman or their newborn dies from lack of access to quality MNH services. We have developed a community-centric model that works alongside the government and local communities to improve maternal and neonatal health (MNH) services across underserved areas of rural Nepal. We work in partnership with local municipalities and communities to strengthen their MNH infrastructure, upgrade government health facilities, and improve the skills and expertise of healthcare workers at every level of the local health system. We are supported by engaged international and local partners who provide annual financial contributions to improve access to quality healthcare services for mothers and their newborns. Municipal governments and local communities co-invest at a rate of 10% of our total program expenditures in Nepal, building a shared ecosystem of sustainability by further augmenting international donor commitments. To reduce maternal and newborn mortality, One Heart Worldwide aims to improve access to quality MNH care for ⅓ of all pregnancies in Nepal by 2030, focusing on the 36 most underserved rural districts. To date, our programs have reached 21 out of these 36 districts. Our success is rooted in a firm understanding of how to sustainably integrate MNH into local culture and communities in complex and remote operating environments that are prone to natural disasters. One Heart Worldwide is a responsive, resilient, and dependable partner in Nepal. We served Nepali women and their families during the 2015 earthquake recovery, and currently provide emergency response to government partners and rural Nepali communities alike to address the needs of pregnant women and newborn infants throughout the global pandemic. By the end of 2024, we will be active in 21 districts and we will have successfully exited from 15 districts. We will be providing access to quality MNH care to a total of 900,000 pregnancies since inception, increasing the annual number of pregnant women with access to quality MNH care from 80,000/year in 2020 to 200,000/year by 2024 (80% of our goal for Nepal).

While we continue to support the flood response and move toward recovery, our commitment to strengthening the regular programs that build sustainable capacity remains just as strong. One such milestone is the establishment of our second Simulation Lab.

This September, One Heart Worldwide, in collaboration with Madesh Institute of Health Science (MIHS), supported the establishment and strengthening of the Simulation Lab (SLAB) through cosmetic improvements and essential equipment, including manikins.

The Simulation Lab provides a safe learning environment where healthcare providers can practice and strengthen their clinical skills before applying them in real care settings. It helps build confidence and competency, contributing to better quality care for mothers and newborns.

This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to strengthening the health workforce and supporting sustainable improvements in the quality of care for mothers and newborns in Nepal.

We are proud to celebrate this important step with MIHS, and we look forward to seeing the Simulation Lab become a center for continuous learning and skill development. One Heart Worldwide continues to support the Government of Nepal and health institutions in strengthening simulation-based learning.

Here are a few moments from the SLAB inauguration ceremony and the beginning of this exciting journey.

Big news from Nepal: all seven provinces now have a rural obstetric ultrasound training site.

This September, One Heart Worldwide supported the Government of Nepal in opening a new training site in Madhesh Province, the final province needed to reach families nationwide.

At this site, we upgraded the training room, provided equipment and supplies, supplied ultrasound machines, and sent master trainers to support local trainers and managers through the first full round of training.

Ultrasound helps healthcare providers spot risks earlier in pregnancy, so mothers and babies in rural areas get the care they need in time. Here are a few photos from the opening ceremony in Madhesh.

Thank you to the German Embassy Kathmandu and Ambassador Udo Volz for standing with communities affected by the August flooding. This support strengthens our emergency response alongside the Government of Nepal and our partners, helping us reach families and healthcare providers where the need is greatest.

We are honored to carry this work forward together. 🇳🇵🤝🇩🇪

Dr. Anju Karki, Public Health Administrator at the District Public Health Office in Nuwakot, knows the danger is not over.

As she explains, the floods have displaced families who now face serious health risks in crowded shelters, from unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation to gaps in nutrition. And as she warns, the weeks after a flood bring a new threat: the spread of disease.

This is where our team is focused now, working alongside the Government of Nepal not only to meet immediate needs, but to help these communities recover and rebuild in the months ahead.

For three weeks, our team has been on the ground across Nuwakot, Rasuwa, and Dhading, reaching families in the hardest-hit corners of the flood zone and working alongside the Government of Nepal at every level.

Getting to these communities has not been easy. Our team has traveled through roads turned to mud and past landslides to reach families who need them. Their dedication and courage have made this response possible.

Here's where things stand as of September 15. Scroll through to see what has reached families so far and how we are helping keep the health system running.

An embedded, long-term partnership is what makes this kind of response possible. We were part of these communities long before the floods, and we will be long after.

We want to share a few photos from our team in Nuwakot District and take a moment to thank everyone making this response possible.

💪 None of this happens without our field team, who have reached families across the affected districts day after day. They are the reason care is reaching the families who need it.

🤝 Our partners stepped up when it mattered. The Schooner Foundation moved quickly in the earliest days of the response, and the Shine On Foundation (AUS) followed with a remarkably generous commitment of its own. Support like theirs allows our team to keep going, in close coordination with the Government of Nepal and other organizations working on the ground.

The response is still underway. If you would like to join them, you can help below.

A week on the ground in Rasuwa and Nuwakot.

Since the floods struck, our team has been moving through the hardest-hit communities, delivering what families and health facilities need most: medicines and supplies where the supply chain has broken down, power and fuel to keep hospitals and birthing centers running, food and dignity kits for displaced families, and psychological first aid for survivors carrying the weight of what they have lost.

This work is carried out in close coordination with the Government of Nepal and local partners, in communities we have served for years. It is that long-standing presence that allowed our team to respond quickly when it mattered most.

The need is still great. Your support helps us keep going: https://buff.ly/Pnb5kQf

Catastrophic floods have devastated central Nepal, including communities we have served alongside the Government of Nepal for over a decade. Thousands of families have lost their homes, and many have lost far more.

Our team is on the ground now, reaching affected families with shelter, food, and safe care. From the 2015 earthquake to more recent floods, we have responded to disasters like this before.

The need is still growing. Help us reach more families across the affected districts. Donate to help us make an impact: https://bit.ly/3UDZBrZ
