Organization information
Vision Dolpo
Location: Kathmandu, Nepal
Summary
This project will build the first Early Childhood Development (ECD) center serving 80 children of ages 2-6 years in the high altitude valley (4200 m) of Dho Tarap, Dolpo in western Nepal. The earthquake resistant classrooms will be built using passive solar technology to withstand the cold harsh winters, enabling the ECD center to operate for the full calendar year and tackle the challenge of 6 month gap in early education for young children.
