Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater harvesting is increasingly being used in the mid-hills of Nepal to address water shortages, particularly during the dry season. Many households in the mid-hills of Nepal face water scarcity, and one solution implemented is roof-top rainwater harvesting systems.
WATER SUPPLY Management
The management of rural water supply in the mid hills of Nepal is a complex challenge, influenced by various factors including geography, climate change, and socio-economic conditions.
Capacity building
Capacity building initiatives must focus on training local stakeholders, including community leaders, women’s groups, and youth, in the principles and practices of watershed management and rainwater harvesting.
Research /studies
Research and collaboration with foreign associates can bring great benefits to various fields and areas of study. Collaborating with foreign researchers can create synergy and enable the sharing of diverse perspectives and expertise
