RISE Bajura: Resilient, Inclusive, Sustainable Development and Empowerment of Farmers and Vulnerable Households
This project employs the Community-Led-Inclusive-Development Approach (CLIDA), a participatory approach focused on empowering target community groups through self-determination and responsibility for project activities. The aim is for 1.600 households to develop sustainable self-help structures within the target group by working closely with communities and focusing on their needs. This includes planning, implementation, observation, and evaluation with active participation from village communities, utilizing various Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) tools. The project targets two main objectives: improving living conditions through sustainable agricultural practices and income-generating activities, and enhancing resilience against disasters and climate change impacts. Actions include training in climate-smart agriculture, sustainable livestock farming, disaster preparedness, and climate change adaptation. Additionally, preparatory measures like assessments and various training sessions are carried out to enhance the knowledge and skills of the target groups, thereby sustainably improving their living conditions and resilience.

SDG 4, Just Education: Ensure equal access to education and opportunities for children and young people from remote communities in Bajura Nepal.
In Nepal, recent federal restructuring coincides with educational challenges: while primary school enrollment is high (91%), secondary rates are low (38.9%). Access to education remains limited, depriving children of prospects. Poverty, unemployment, and unproductive agriculture plague project communities, hindering Nepals development. In Bajura district, despite a 97% enrollment rate, learning outcomes for grade 8 students range from 41-46%. This project aims to address these disparities by providing equitable education and development opportunities, aligning with SDG 4. The goal is to ensure 10,000 children and 2,100 youth in 13 communities have equal access to quality education and future opportunities. Subgoals include establishing monitoring mechanisms, enhancing schooling systems, and strengthening rural economies to reduce vulnerability among children and youth. Structural and social sustainability will be achieved through community involvement and the establishment of Civil Society Organizations.

CARE - Christmas Calender Project 2015 -The forgotten children of Himalaya
Development objective: Improve the nutritional and educational status of hard to reach children in three districts of the Mid-Western high hills of Nepal. Immediate objectives: 1. Improved access to flexible and better quality education for seasonal migrant children 2. Improved nutrition and food security of families in the target districts 3. Strengthened links between communities and service providers to ensure quality services Primary target groups: The project is directly targeting 4500 children in 30 schools as well as 4.500 women of 180 mothers groups and members of 90 farmers groups in the hills. The project area will be approximately 20 Village Develop¬ment Committees in the two districts and the selection is based on consultation with local authorities. The 30 schools are selected considering lack of basic infrastructure, number of migrating students and a high level of marginalized children in the area. The project will target all 180 mothers groups. Likewise, the project aims to directly target most of the farmers groups assuming 3-5 farmers groups in each Village Develop¬ment Committee (180 lead farmers from 90 farmers groups). Secondary target groups: The secondary target groups include service providers in Bajura, Mugu as well as in the Humla district, including 90 teachers, 40 extension agents, 30 Village Development Committees, as well as 180 female community health volunteers, 180 volunteer peer educators. In total approx. 700 volunteers, service providers and local government staff. In addition, local organisations representing Dalits and indigenous peoples will be involved as change agents who can continue to lobby for service provisions and influence the planning in the areas. Indirect beneficiaries: The project will positively affect up to 250.000 people (the population of the three districts) through campaigns, improved local planning and better quality services.
