Bishestha Shrestha is the co founder of Gyanbodh Research and Development services. She is a gender studies specialist with experience of working in this sector for almost 6/7 years. She’s also a PhD candidate and is currently affiliated with Daayitwa as a Project Manager.

We connected with Bishestha Shrestha to explore the topic of sexual abuse and assault. Why some people come forward with their story while others don’t.

As we got to know her and all of her contributions in the subject of Gender Equality and Social Inclusion, she opened up about her own story of sexual abuse at the age of 4.

Getting to know her story and what she went through gave us a clear idea of what it means to a survivor when they go through sexual abuse and the impact it has on them. If anything, this episode has helped us realize the importance of empathy and compassion. We hope it holds true to all our viewers and listeners as well.

Here’s to Bishesta di, for coming forward with your story and reclaiming your power! We admire you and thank you for trusting us enough to share your story for the very first time on a public platform
