Story

Education is one of the greatest tools we have to tackle poverty and gender inequality, yet in rural Nepal less than 30% of children complete primary school. We believe that one of the first steps to empowering communities and improving education is to ensure that teachers are trained, supported and equipped to deliver excellent standards of education in an environment where children can effectively learn. We need your help to deliver this vision.

Impact

With well-planned and appropriate follow-up sessions our specialized teacher training can benefit the teacher and their classroom for years to come and does not need continuous or costly intervention. It is a simple yet effective way to inspire teachers and students for the benefit of their communities and prepare the next generation to better tackle poverty and gender equality in Nepal.

Challenge

Teachers in rural areas of Nepal are often not able to access training easily and their teaching methods can be ineffective; there is often a focus on rote learning and physical punishment meaning that children are not inspired to learn. Alongside the challenges in schools there is also a lack of understanding about the importance of education in many rural areas and the change that it can bring to a community. Often girls are kept out of school and denied their right to an education.
