Sathsathai made an effort to raise women’s voices from Kalapatthar (5644m) of the Everest region, Nepal on 08 March 2022 to mark the 112th International Women’s Day. The 40 women’s team was joined by Manisha Koirala, Dr. Radha Wagle, Saru Shrestha Joshi, Dr. Siddhartha Bajra Bajracharya, Babita Basnet, Bandana Rana, Sharad Adhikari, Balkrishna Basnet together with a great team of media personnel. The slogan for this unique and symbolic International Women’s Day (IWD) 2022 celebration was “Women United for Climate Justice”.
Therefore, IWD 2022 celebration with the slogan “Women United for Climate Justice” in Kalapatthar in the Everest region aims to carry a deep and powerful meaning. That there is a desperate need to build outside support for women of the Himalaya mountain ranges, who are living in the most remote and isolated regions of the world, and contributing least to greenhouse gas emissions, but are the hardest hit by the consequences of climate change.
Sathsathai founder Prajeeta Karki expressed deep concern about the irreversible melting of the Himalayan glaciers. She insisted on the urgency for integrating local and global actions to reduce climate impacts. Ms Karki added that climate change has become an existential issue in the Himalaya, and that without concerted action women and girls would continue to be frontline victims.
