Aama Samuha (Nepali: आमा समूह, lit.'Mothers' Group') is a Nepalese voluntary group formed to raise awareness about gender equality, issues affecting women and social issues.[1][2] It was started in Western Nepal by the Gurung people because Gurung men would leave Nepal to join the British Army (Brigade of Gurkhas), and lately the Indian Army (Gorkha regiments).[3] Aama Samuha was originally started to "sing, dance and organise cultural activities in the evening."[3]
