Kathmandu : MayaKo Pahichan Nepal is proud to announce a new partnership with Ek Ek Paila, a volunteer-driven health initiative dedicated to providing quality medical services in rural and underserved areas of Nepal.
Through this collaboration, we are bringing essential and inclusive health care to gender and sexual minority (GSM/LGBTI) individuals at highly subsidized rates.
Starting immediately, members of the GSM/LGBTI community can access a range of health services including general and specialist consultations, sexual health checkups, STD treatment, and HIV testing at Ek Ek Paila clinics.
The cost of a general consultation is just NPR 150, while specialist consultations are available for NPR 300. Laboratory testing services are also provided at affordable prices.
This partnership comes at a critical time. Following the abrupt funding cuts by U.S. President Trump, over 20 sexual health clinics catering to the GSM/LGBTI community across Nepal have been forced to shut down.
In this moment of crisis, Ek Ek Paila has opened its doors with compassion and solidarity, ensuring continued access to respectful, quality health care for vulnerable populations.
MayaKo Pahichan Nepal has deployed two dedicated volunteers at Ek Ek Paila clinics to provide targeted support for GSM/LGBTI clients, assisting them in navigating services and ensuring their needs are met with dignity and care.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the entire team at Ek Ek Paila for their unwavering commitment to inclusive health care. Together, we strive to build a more equitable health system—one step, or ek ek paila, at a time.
Special gratitude to Dr Suman Thapa ji.
