Nepal Public Health Foundation 16th Lecture Series

Posted on by NPHF

Some journeys are measured not in miles but in lives touched, voices amplified, and silent struggles transformed into hope.

On June 30th, Nepal Public Health Foundation had the privilege of hosting its 16th Public Health Lecture Series a gathering not just of professionals, but of hearts that beat for the wellbeing of mothers and newborns across Nepal.

The evening was graced by a remarkable dignitary “Prof. Dr. Sanu Maiyan Dali” whose life story itself is a testimony to unwavering dedication, quiet resilience, and an unshaken belief that every mother deserves safety, every newborn deserves a chance at life.

For over five decades, her footsteps have echoed through the villages, hospitals, policies, and communities of this country carrying both the weight of challenges and the light of progress. Her memories, struggles, and achievements are not hers alone they belong to every mother saved, every child embraced, every family kept whole.

As she shared her experiences, we were reminded that change does not happen overnight it happens through tireless work, through embracing hardships, through holding on to compassion when the world looks away.

It was not just a lecture it was a moment of reflection, pride, and gratitude.
A moment for NPHF to stand tall proud of its own commitment to reducing maternal and neonatal mortality, proud to be part of Nepal’s journey towards the Sustainable Development Goals, and proud to honour those who have given their life to this noble cause.
