Widows in Nepal; racist tensions in Italy; Kano raps about education.
Widows in Nepal

Many face social exclusion and poverty, but they are now joining forces and organising support groups to look after each other. Joanna Jolly speaks to the founder of one such group in a town near the capital, Kathmandu.
