📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Volunteers Initiative Nepal (VIN) is a Nepal-based non-profit and non-government organisation founded in 2005, supporting marginalised communities through long-term, holistic community development. With a dedicated local team and a strong volunteer network, VIN runs year-round programmes focused on women and children, guided by four pillars: education, health & environment, economy, and basic infrastructure. Its initiatives are designed from local needs and aligned with the SDGs, and are monitored to ensure quality and impact. Through volunteerism and community partnership, VIN builds meaningful service experiences that strengthen local well-being while fostering cross-cultural understanding and responsible global citizenship.

💼 What the programme involves

1. School improvement & English teaching: Support light renovation at local schools (e.g., painting walls, repairing furniture), and run interactive English lessons to build students' confidence and communication skills. 2. Women's empowerment & community support: Collaborate with women's groups through sharing or training, supporting leadership awareness and broader worldviews, and encouraging participation in community and economic life. 3. Eco-action & organic farming support: Join tree planting, community cleanup, and field/farm maintenance to improve local environments and support more sustainable practices. 4. Cultural exchange: Engage with local youth through cultural activities, sharing stories from different places, and learning across cultures. 5. Kathmandu cultural visit: Visit heritage sites or cultural landmarks to understand Nepal's history, religious traditions, and local customs.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Participants will stay in a local homestay, sharing rooms with same-gender participants. Facilities are simple, with basic beds and bathroom amenities. Meals are prepared by local hosts and feature traditional Nepali dishes with local spices, including meat and vegetables. Volunteers may assist with meal preparation and will share daily cleaning duties — deepening connection with local life and building meaningful relationships within the community.
