Resume

The overall objective of this intervention is to ensure that communities in Helambu Municipality of Sindhupalchowk district in Nepal are safe areas for children where they have access to inclusive and equitable quality education. An area of Nepal emerging from a series of crippling events, a hot spot under the civil war and hardest hit by the devastation earthquake of 2015. The area has one of the highest rates of human trafficking and youth migration in the country. Their schools are rebuilt but they are stigmatized “The Schools for the Poor”. Few take pride in these schools, all want to attend English speaking schools away from the village. The bonds between local communities and schools are weak. This project takes a Total School Approach, it works with communities, schools and newly elected municipality to address child protection and education. It works with hands- on support, addressing the roots of local concerns. It facilitates the establishment of collaborate relationships.
