Youth empowerment through integrated education and training for resilience and local prospects in Kathmandu Valley
The project addresses the challenges of climate change and the lack of local livelihoods for the local youth in Kathmandu Valley. It aims to empower youth and promote sustainable, enhanced climate resilience and local livelihood opportunities in Kathmandu Valley. Through a regular offer of education and awareness programs, children and youth enhance their understanding of environmental and climate related risks and gain capacities to face these challenges with suitable adaptation and response measures. A dedicated vocational and skills development program, based on local needs and opportunities, supports vulnerable local youth and equips them with relevant technical and business skills to create income and employment opportunities at the local level. The project supports skills training in sustainable tourism and hospitality as an answer to employment and business opportunities in the project area. Capacity development of local civil society actors and close collaboration with local government stakeholders further foster the sustainable development of the area while respecting environmental boundaries and responding to the effects of climate change in the area.

Improvement of Mother and Child Care in Urban Areas - Paropakar Maternity and Womens Hospital Kathmandu II
The module aims to improve access to and increase utilization of quality medical care for pregnant women and newborns at the selected satellite hospitals in the Kathmandu Valley, while reducing the burden on and specializing the Paropakar Maternity and Womens Hospital (Paropakar) Kathmandu. Additionally, the module aims to strengthen gender equality and empower women in leadership, management, service delivery and user groups in the catchment area of the satellite hospitals. The recipient is the Government of the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal. The project executing agency, in addition to the Nepalese Ministry of Health, is Paropakar in Kathmandu. The direct target group is the population living in the Kathmandu Valley, especially women and children. The project measures include the construction of a new satellite hospital in Chandragiri, in the far west of the Kathmandu Valley. The location of the satellite hospital is in the immediate periphery of the Kathmandu Valley, in order to relieve Paropakar of mainly normal and low-risk births and to alleviate existing bottlenecks in mother-child care. The project will also finance necessary medical equipment and the digital connection and networking between Paropakar and the satellite hospital. Measures to promote energy efficiency will also be implemented. A complementary measure is planned to train the executing agencys managerial and executive staff (Paropakar and satellite hospitals), especially in the management, handling, operation and maintenance of financed measures and environmental and social standards.

Build Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health (CAPMH) System
The project aim is to further develop and consolidate the newly established system for mental health services for children and adolescents, in close cooperation with Kanti Children’s Hospital, Mental Hospital Lagankhel in Kathmandu, and with the Nepalese government. It will provide outpatient and inpatient treatment with specialists onsite, and through teleconsultations. There will be outreach work in rural areas, emergency services and training for non-health specialists and non-health actors. There is emphasis on providing girls with equal access to services, and on addressing the ways in which mental illness manifests differently in boys and girls due to the cultural context. Clinical research will be managed from the CWIN Research and Outreach Centre. The project supports PhD research and scientific analysis and publication of findings. The project specifically includes children and adolescents with permanent or temporary mental impairments, and aims to reduce their vulnerabilities, as well as the cultural stigma attached to mental illness.
