Rebuilding Hope
Rebuilding Hope aims on rebuilding permanent school buildings earlier devastated by the earthquake of April 2015. We belief that provision of safe learning space to students will help reduce absenteeism in classroom during winter and monsoon and motivate as well as improve primary education especially among the weaker communities.
We are currently working to rebuild Shree Surya Primary School at Okharpauwa-2, Nuwakot. It is located at an isolated area inhabitated by the Tamang minorities of Nepal, who have remained backward for such a long time. Contributing to their younger ones educatoin in any way possible is the best way to ensure their development. The project involved community based approach and is due scheduled to be finished by July 2017.
The team is involved in the building of 1-storey 2 building classrooms (Room-to-read design) and the provision of water filtration for safe drinking water to the school. Gender appropriate toilets will also be built with community's help. As the school is located in a hilly landscape, there is the need to build a retaining wall and a bridge in the school area as there are other disasters such as floods and landslide happening around every monsoon. As a complete long term solution, we need your help to achieve all of these goals for safe learning environment for the children of rural Nepal in general and this school in particular.
