An ocean away from Nepal, Sonia spends her spare time piecing together clues about missing flood victims: ‘I wanted to be useful’
Based abroad, Sonia volunteers with Facebook groups that compile reports from families of Nepal’s flood victims. She cross‑checks these details against the national police database to confirm identities and locations. While the effort sometimes yields closure, many cases remain unresolved, leaving participants with mixed emotions and hope about the limited success of their digital assistance in this ongoing crisis.
