At Konektee Nepal, we empower Nepalese migrants to lead confident, fulfilling lives through a comprehensive approach, starting with pre-departure training and continuing with a strong support system for returnees. Whether someone is embarking on their journey abroad or returning home, Konektee Nepal provides everything from mental health awareness and first aid training to rehabilitation and career guidance.
Each year, 1,000 Nepalese migrants return in coffins, with 12% of deaths attributed to suicide. Unemployment, societal pressure, and false promises of a better life drive young people abroad, often leading to despair.
Migrants face severe challenges, including physical and sexual abuse, trafficking, forced organ sales, and oppressive systems like the Kafala system, which strips workers of their rights and freedom.
Migrants encounter cultural shocks, discrimination, and language barriers. International students face additional burdens, balancing work, studies, and debts against the pressure of high living costs and family expectations.
Konektee was born from personal struggles and the heartbreaking stories of migrants like Saroj Bhatta, a member of my community in Australia. Saroj faced immense challenges, including mental illness, divorce, and visa complications, which led to his deportation back to Nepal. Tragically, he took his own life last December while living with his family.
Konektee was created with me in mind. My struggles inspired a movement that ensures no migrant faces the challenges I did—alone. I may no longer be here, but my story lives on to help others find strength and support
As a migrant facing cultural shocks and financial pressures, Konektee became my lifeline. Their counseling services and peer support groups gave me the strength to adapt, thrive, and feel at home in a foreign land
Returning home after years abroad was daunting. Konektee’s reintegration programs helped me rebuild my life with career guidance and emotional support. Today, I’m proud to contribute to my community
I was on the brink of giving up when Konektee stepped in. Their mental health first aid training gave me tools to manage stress and support others like me. They truly saved my life
In search of better opportunities to support my family, I moved to Australia without realizing the difficulties of surviving in a foreign country. Despite my determination to work hard, the stress from the challenges I faced, took a huge toll on my mental health. Though I lost everything I had worked for, I eventually found my purpose: to create psychosocial support for migrants like me who suffer in silence.
