🏢 About the local organisation
Daman project is one of our newest projects and we have only been operating here since 2012. Daman is a quiet remote area and most people are farmers, living a traditional life, as they have done for generations. However, times are changing and the community has a severe lack of funds to keep up with the rapid changes that Nepal is undergoing. Knowledge of other cultures and the ability to speak English are vital skills for young Nepalese people. Many look forward to a future in the tourism business, and therefore the ability to communicate effectively with foreigners will increase their chances of having a better life once they leave the village.
We also believe that our volunteers benefit a lot from staying in Daman. Living in a completely different culture with local hosts and adjusting to their conditions is an unforgettable experience. Teaching locals to think in new and different ways is their benefit, learning from their unique way of life is yours. Our main aim is therefore to make life easier and more enjoyable particularly for the youth in Daman by giving them better prospects for the future through improving the facilities and the teaching at the local high school, where volunteers will mainly built up sport facilities. Moreover, volunteers will help with the construction of a community house. It is meant to provide space for events, like marriages and community meetings. But the space can be used in a variety of ways.
💼 What the programme involves
FFN and SVI have been organizing special work camps of community service program with different aims to help local community for example construction and manual work to make and complete which building use by local people for their different meetings and program.
There will be better chance to work at the government school to mix up with school children’s and teachers. You also can have a chance to teach children’s and make them about your country and life style after then you are also free to create your new idea to explore the Nepalese life.
🏠 Accommodation on site

Which is Simple place to stay in case if you like to stay at the best hotel there will be additional cost.

Volunteers will have three traditional meals a day, mostly the Nepalese national dish Dhal Bhat and take part in the cooking process and all chores. It is also possible to bring own food. A camping pad and sleeping bag are required. Showers with cold water are available in your place.
