100,000 in 5 years.
This is how they are made:

Today, we had the wonderful opportunity to host Grade 7 students from Kathmandu Vidya Kunja School at the Avni Recycling Centre.

We conducted an interactive learning session on Making a Circular Economy vs. the current Linear Economy. The students gained insights into the journey of waste—from its generation at households and institutions to its processing at Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs), and eventually to recycling centers and landfills.

🔄 We emphasized how the circular economy model helps in minimizing waste, creating value through reuse and recycling, and reducing environmental impact.

🗻 One of the most exciting parts for the students was learning about how waste collected from mountain cleanup campaigns, including from the Everest region, is brought to Avni Ventures and recycled into useful products. This helped them connect global challenges with local solutions and understand the critical role Nepal plays in environmental preservation.

📸 Their curiosity, thoughtful questions, and engagement motivated us further to continue working towards building a sustainable future.

It was an honour to be invited by the Hon. Deputy PM & Finance Minister Mr. Bishnu Poudel to discuss on key priority areas regarding the upcoming budget.

Our suggestions focused on key priorities to foster Business/entrepreneurial environment, to create opportunities for youth & to ensure Sustainable Economic growth for Nepal. We suggested targeted policy interventions to steer Nepal towards a Green & Circular Economy.
