We run five
categories of programmes throughout the year
1 - Short-term Program
In a ten-day to two-week period, a volunteer could choose either
English tutoring, environment awareness, health post assignment
or income generation programme.
Otherwise, s/he could support NRO by writing a proposal or by joining
our collective effort for fundraising overseas.
2 - English
Classes
Placement ranges from one to five months. After the appropriate
orientation, a volunteer is introduced to a community to teach school
students the English language.
No teaching experience is necessary, but at least a good knowledge
of English grammar is highly recommended.
3 - Cultural Immersion
For any overseas volunteer interested
in Nepali culture, for a period of one to five months, this programme
offers a live-in experience with a Nepali family, either in the
city or in the countryside -after the appropriate orientation. Throughout
this unique immersion experience, a volunteer has the opportunity
to exchange and share his or her own culture and customs.
A stay with more than one family in different regions of Nepal
can be arranged on demand during this cultural experience.
4 - Environmental Issues
Placement ranges from one to five months. This programme is about
teaching environmental topics in village schools and youth clubs.
As for the adult people, it will provide them with an orientation
on issues of waste management and sanitation, as well as a stimulation
to create gardens.
An environmental background is desirable.
5 - Primary Health Care
Placement ranges from one to five months.
Primary health care services, including reproductive health,
are provided in a Health Center or Outpost, as well as through home
visits. They do include orientation in hygiene, sanitation and
other health topics in schools.
