Who we are

SOLVE Nepal began with a group of students from different ethnic communities and regions of the country, who believed young people could rebuild their communities from the ground up. The organisation took shape during a period of national political unrest, and its first task was straightforward: bring youth leaders together to protect their communities and lay the groundwork for lasting, peaceful change.

Today

Nearly two decades on, SOLVE Nepal is registered with the District Administration Office in Kathmandu and affiliated with the Social Welfare Council of Nepal. We work in all seven provinces, from the Terai lowlands to the Himalayan highlands, designing programmes that put people and the planet at the centre of development.

 

What we work on

Where we focus

  • Biodiversity conservation
  • Climate resilience
  • Sustainable livelihoods
  • Agroforestry
  • Agroecology
  • Digital agriculture
  • Financial literacy
  • Natural resource management

 


None of this happens alone. We work alongside local governments, development agencies and national institutions, because locally led solutions only last when the whole community, and the systems around it, are pulling in the same direction.
