Development projects in Nepal

Nepalese agriculture is characterized by subsistence farming and the concentration of most land in the hands of a few people. Many Nepalese scrape a barely adequate living by working in other people's fields. Food insecurity and malnutrition are very common. Educate the Children provides resources (such as high-quality seeds, tools, etc.) and training to help farmers in Nepal increase their crop yields and the variety of foods grown. This improves nutrition and combats chronic hunger.
