Exchange visit among Rain Communities(RC):
We recently organized an exchange visit for beneficiaries from the Okhle, Deumadi, and Thulakot Rain Communities to visit the inspiring Majkot Rain Community.
Living on hilltops makes water access a unique challenge, but Majkot RC has been efficiently consuming and managing rainwater for over two decades! This visit allowed our communities to witness firsthand how rainwater harvesting can transform life on the hills.
Learning from each other is how we grow stronger!

Majkot RC has been efficiently utilizing rainwater for over 20 years, proving that local, sustainable solutions are the key to overcoming water scarcity on hillsides.
Thank you, Majkot RC, for opening your doors and sharing your invaluable experience with us! 🏔️💧

Addressing the diversed geographical challenges of the mid-hills, our minimalistic sanitation units prioritize public health safety through accessible sanitation facilities. These designs ensure that even in remote rain communities, basic hygiene standards are met to prevent the contamination of local water sources and mitigate community-wide health risks.

🌱 Reviving Springs in Nepal’s Mid-Hills 💧

With the active participation of the Okhle Rain Communities, more than 50+ small infiltration ditches have been built upstream of spring sources in Pokhara-28, Kaski.

This simple yet powerful ecological intervention under our Integrated Resources Management of Water and Ecosystem Project is helping recharge groundwater, restore natural springs, and secure water for future generations.

✨ A community-led solution, blending traditional wisdom with ecological resilience, to bring life back to the hills of Nepal. International Rainwater Harvesting Alliance - IRHA
