To improve women's participation in HMGs in Nepal, it is necessary to address factors at the SEM's individual, interpersonal, and community levels, such as enhancing FCHV literacy, providing advance notice of the meeting schedule, upgrading the meeting venues and reducing women's workload through family support, particularly during agricultural season. These improvements are essential for strengthening effective implementation of HMG meetings and similar women's group-based platforms, and for ultimately improving maternal and child health in Nepal
