Maiti Nepal (Nepali: माइती नेपाल) is a non-profit organization in Nepal dedicated to help the victims of human trafficking. Currently, it operates a rehabilitation home in Kathmandu, as well as transit homes at the Indo-Nepal border towns, preventive homes in the countryside and an academy in Kathmandu . The word ‘Maiti' has no literal interpretation in English but in the Nepali language the word ‘maiti' means the home of the girl's birth parents. The word itself holds sentimental value for the women population of Nepal "especially for a married Nepali woman who has no longer any right towards her parents or their property". Once a girl is married to another man, she becomes a perpetual member of her husband's family. She has all obligations to her husband and her new family. As this organization is a home to all the girls, women and children who are not accepted into their family and society, therefore this NGO has been named as ‘Maiti' Nepal to symbolize the love and affection that a girl receives in her birth parents place.
