NEPAL
In partnership with REED Nepal, our flagship Teacher Training and Quality Inclusive Education (TTQIE) project is helping children living in some of the poorest and most remote areas to access inclusive, high quality primary education.
This involves training teachers with the skills required to nurture young minds — particularly in the foundational subjects of English, Maths and Science — and providing vital classroom resources, like furniture, equipment, and books. We also help disadvantaged children and families by providing schoolbags, uniforms, books, stationery, toiletries, and nutritious lunches.
In addition to our generous donors, this program is also supported by the Australian Government through the Australian NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP).
BHUTAN
In Bhutan, our educational support focuses on increasing opportunities and improving wellbeing for children and young people who have experienced violence, abuse, or neglect. We are working with our local partner, RENEW (Respect, Educate, Nurture and Empower Women), to ensure vulnerable children can access school until at least Year 10, as well as counselling support.
Opportunities for support can mean the difference between children — especially girls — going to school for a brighter future or missing out completely on the benefits of education.
Through partnerships with local communities, we support local wildlife conservation and community-led responses to the effects of climate change
We are providing the people of the Himalaya with access to vital health services, with a focus on maternal health and the well being of women and girls
We rely heavily on the generosity of supporters to reach the most vulnerable people in the Himalaya. Thank you for your support to provide life-changing opportunities for remote communities
