Integrated, community-driven projects strengthening resilience across Nepal.
Project status
Thematic area
Climate Action Nepal is convening a policy dialogue and youth innovation forum with Kathmandu University to connect research, public policy and community experience. The platform is designed to showcase practical solutions, amplify youth leadership and strengthen collaboration on resilience, DRR, circular economy and sustainable development.
Climate Action Nepal is working with homestay operators to reduce the environmental footprint of local tourism while improving resilience and livelihood value. Training is linked with one practical eco-homestay pilot that demonstrates renewable energy, organic waste recovery and environmentally responsible guest services.
This project is developing a localized pathway for integrating climate change and Disaster Risk Reduction into school education. It combines curriculum design, teacher preparation, hazard mapping and municipal coordination so climate learning becomes a sustained part of school systems rather than a one-time activity.
Building on Phase I, Climate Action Nepal is expanding access to clean electric cooking for vulnerable households living near forests and wildlife habitats in Western Chitwan. The project is supporting 40 additional households to shift away from fuelwood toward electric cooking powered by Nepal’s renewable hydropower system.
The Phase II school resilience programme is strengthening climate literacy and disaster preparedness through interactive, practical and student-centred learning. Students connect climate risks with everyday actions, school safety and environmental responsibility while building confidence to lead change beyond the classroom.
Climate Action Nepal is improving a school hall and library in Thaha Municipality to create a more welcoming, functional and inclusive learning environment. The initiative combines volunteer-led renovation, book support, library organization and Wi-Fi access to strengthen both traditional and digital learning opportunities.
This ongoing project supports smallholder farmers to improve soil health, manage agricultural residues responsibly and strengthen resilience to climate variability. Practical training combines vermicomposting, biochar, bio-briquette production, integrated pest management and reduced dependence on chemical inputs.
Climate Action Nepal, in collaboration with KAS Political Dialogue Asia, is implementing the Climate, Conservation and Environment Responsive Journalism Workshop to strengthen the capacity of journalists and media professionals to report accurately, ethically and constructively on climate change, biodiversity conservation, environmental governance, disaster risk reduction and sustainable development. The initiative will train at least 12 journalists and reporters to improve the communication of technical information, weather forecasts, seasonal outlooks and climate advisories generated by relevant government agencies and scientific institutions. By strengthening journalists’ ability to interpret complex scientific information, the project will help ensure that climate and environmental information reaches vulnerable communities in a timely, accurate and locally understandable manner, contributing to improved preparedness, resilience and informed decision-making.
Climate Action Nepal is strengthening the skills, safety and dignity of informal waste workers who play a critical role in keeping communities and river systems clean. The ongoing initiative connects river-focused waste recovery with occupational health and safety, flood-risk awareness, first aid, emergency response and environmentally responsible waste management.
