♻️ Circular Economy and Waste Management
The Climate Responsive Community Based Waste Management Project promoted household-level waste segregation, composting and sustainable waste practices in Mahalaxmi Ward No. 1, Lalitpur, while strengthening the role of women waste workers. Through door-to-door counselling, community training and capacity building, the project reached 106 community members and trained 22 women waste workers.
♻️ Circular Economy and Waste Management
During a three-day Chitwan field engagement in February and March 2026, Climate Action worked with waste workers at the Safa Urja Material Recovery Facility to strengthen plastic identification, source segregation, circular-economy awareness and occupational health and safety.
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.
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.
♻️ Circular Economy and Waste Management
On 30 April 2026, a multi-stakeholder river cleanup mobilised community members, local institutions, youth, students, informal waste workers and volunteers to remove plastic and other improperly disposed waste from the Budhi Rapti River corridor. The campaign combined direct environmental action with public education on river conservation, waste management and biodiversity protection.
