Street Child of Nepal

We extend our deepest solidarity to everyone affected by the devastating floods in Rasuwa, Nuwakot, and the surrounding areas.

Our thoughts are with children, adolescents, young people, families and communities who are navigating loss, disruption and uncertainty. We recognise the courage and resilience of communities across Nepal during this difficult time and remain committed to ensuring that children and young people are safe, supported and able to have their voices heard.

We are staying in close contact with the Government of Nepal and monitoring developments closely to help ensure that support is coordinated and responsive to emerging needs.

Together with government counterparts, partners and communities, we remain committed to supporting those most affected and to upholding the rights, protection, safety and dignity of every child and young person.

🚨 EMERGENCY APPEAL: Flash flooding in Nepal has washed away entire villages, homes and schools.

This morning (26 August), an unimaginable flash flood ripped through central Nepal, along the Tibet border. Many of the worst-hit areas are places Street Child knows like the back of our hand — including around the mountains of Rasuwa and Nuwakot Districts, where we built 75 schools after the 2015 earthquake.

As in any disaster like this, children are among the most vulnerable. Our teams are mobilising right now to stand with these communities once again. We have the skills, the local knowledge, and the passion. With your support, we can make a real difference.

Please give what you can, today. 👉 Donate now: https://streetchild.enthuse.com/nepal-flash-flooding-appeal

📢Protecting Children Is Everyone’s Responsibility. We all have a role to play in creating environments where children feel safe, respected, heard and protected from abuse, exploitation and sexual violence.

Safeguarding children is not only about responding when harm occurs. It is about being proactive, recognising risks, listening to children, respecting their boundaries, knowing how to respond to concerns, and speaking up when something does not feel right.

Here are some simple reminders we can all follow to help create safer environments for children.

Let us use our voices, knowledge, influence and everyday actions to help build communities where every child feels safe, respected and protected. 🤝

Since 2025, Naveenta, a STEM project initiative, has supported girls with opportunities to build digital skills, knowledge, and confidence.
As the pilot project comes to a close and prepares for its next phase, we’re reflecting on the experiences, learning, and connections built along the way.

Together with our implementing partner, Karkhana Samuha, Naveenta has reached more than 600 girls through digital skills courses. These opportunities have enabled participants to explore technology, develop practical skills, and learn more about pathways into the digital and STEM fields.

With the support of Liberty Global, ALTERNATIVES 4 CHILDREN NL, Eurofin Foundation, and other partners, we’ve been able to bring these learning opportunities to girls and communities.

As we look ahead, we carry forward the lessons and experiences from this pilot as we explore what the next phase of Naveenta can look like.

When children are encouraged to ask questions, work together, explore ideas, and learn through play, these everyday moments help children strengthen their foundational skills.

Across more than 600 community schools, teachers participating in the Build the Basics project are using learner-centred remedial teaching approaches to meet children at their current learning level. With the support of interactive, play-based activities, classrooms are creating more opportunities for every child to participate, learn, and grow.

Today, on World Youth Skills Day, we celebrate the potential of young people, especially in Nepal, where youth make up a significant share of the population. Despite facing high unemployment and limited access to opportunities, young people continue to demonstrate resilience, innovation, and determination to build better futures.

At Street Child of Nepal, we are committed to ensuring every young person has the opportunity to thrive. Through our She Leads project, we support young married girls—some as young as 15—to build sustainable livelihoods by providing vocational and business skills training, mentorship, and the resources needed to establish viable enterprises.

We celebrate the resilience, ambition, and potential of the youth. By continuing to invest in their skills and expanding access to opportunities, we can help build more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable communities where every young person has the chance to succeed!

Beyond the Basics successfully delivered Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) teacher trainings across six municipalities in Madhesh and Karnali provinces this year. A total of 454 teachers completed the five-day training, gaining practical skills to deliver learner-centered literacy and numeracy lessons through 35 numeracy and 18 literacy activities. Some of the training sessions were also observed by representatives from the Center for Education and Human Resource Development (CEHRD), including Director General Mr. Ana Prasad Neupane. Their participation highlights the importance of strengthening collaboration to improve foundational literacy and numeracy and reflects a shared commitment to supporting evidence-based approaches that help every child reach their full learning potential.

TaRL is an evidence-based approach that groups children according to their learning level, helping teachers provide the right support at the right time so no child is left behind. This work is especially important in Nepal, where many children continue to struggle with foundational literacy and numeracy.

As teachers begin implementing TaRL in their classrooms, we look forward to seeing impactful results. With teachers, local governments, and education partners like Aasaman Nepal working together, we're creating stronger learning environments where every child has the opportunity to build essential foundational skills.

Since 2023, Street Child of Nepal, in partnership with Aasaman Nepal and with the support of the Hempel Foundation, has implemented the Build the Basics programme across 690 community schools in 29 local governments, reaching more than 36,000 students and 1,800 teachers.

Working alongside CEHRD under the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (now the Ministry of Education and Sports-Nepal), the programme contributes to Nepal's Recovery and Accelerated Learning (REAL) Plan, supporting efforts to address learning gaps and strengthen foundational learning outcomes.

This documentary offers a glimpse into classrooms across Karnali and Madhesh, where Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) is being adapted to strengthen foundational literacy and numeracy. It follows teachers rethinking how they engage learners, students rebuilding confidence, and communities working together to support better learning opportunities for every child.

With special thanks to the Hempel Foundation for its support and to our partner Aasaman Nepal for their dedication and commitment on the ground.

There is no better day than the International Day of Play to share Build the Basics documentary. Watch how teacher's use play-based and interactive learning approaches to help children engage, learn, and strengthen foundational skills in schools. Build the Basics continues to support remedial learning in schools while strengthening teachers and school systems to improve and sustain learning outcomes.

We are pleased to present She Leads documentary that follows the lives of women like Riya as they take meaningful steps towards building their own small-scale businesses and shaping a more secure future for themselves and their families.

Filmed over eight months, the documentary captures their lived experiences, aspirations, and reflections as they engage with the programme and navigate the realities of entrepreneurship, financial decision-making, and finding greater voice within their households and communities. Through their stories, the film offers an intimate glimpse into the opportunities, challenges, and learning that have shaped their journeys.

At the heart of the documentary is Riya, a young mother with a clear vision: to establish her own tailoring business. While balancing family responsibilities and the demands of everyday life, she continues to invest in her future through life skills education support and financial literacy training. Through moments from her daily life, we witness her determination, resilience, and the quiet strength with which she is working towards a better future for her children.

Alongside Riya, women such as Shivasati, Bimala, and Anu are also navigating similar paths. Coming from rural communities, they are challenging limitations, building confidence, and redefining what is possible for themselves and their families. Their journeys remind us that empowerment is not a single moment, but a process shaped by courage, learning, support, and persistence.

Special thanks to our partner, Janaki Women Awareness Society, for their invaluable support throughout the project.
