Each month, during their menstrual periods, they are subjected to a week-long ritual of isolation and oppression, where they are forced to stay in Chhaugoth, cowsheds, and rickety shacks, as they are deemed ‘impure’ and untouchable by the rest of the society.
Join us in conversation with Uma Bista, www.umabista.com, as she share more about this tradition and its long-term effect on the women and girls who experience it through her work, hosted by Ng Swan Ti (PannaFoto Institute).
The session will be conducted in English and Indonesian.

Our Songs From The Forest karya Uma Bista (Fotografer, Kathmandu) berlatar di Oligaun, Achham, sebuah desa di wilayah paling barat Nepal. Seri foto ini membahas praktik Chhaupadi. Setiap bulan, selama periode menstruasi, perempuan-perempuan menjalani ritual isolasi dan penindasan selama seminggu, di mana mereka dipaksa untuk tinggal di Chhaugoth, kandang sapi, dan gubuk reyot, karena mereka dianggap ‘tidak murni’ dan tidak tersentuh oleh masyarakat.
Bergabunglah dalam perbincangan bersama Uma Bista, www.umabista.com, dimana melalui karyanya ia akan bercerita lebih jauh tentang tradisi ini, serta konsekuensi jangka panjang pada para perempuan yang mengalaminya, dipandu oleh Ng Swan Ti (PannaFoto Institute).
Sesi ini akan dilakukan dalam bahasa Inggris dan Indonesia.
