Habitat for Humanity Nepal
Capacity Statement
We provide assistance beyond constructing houses
Empowering youth
We provide training to youth and empower them to implement an action plan of their own design to be the change leaders for safe shelter.
Vocational training
Our projects always include vocational training with an emphasis on increasing knowledge and capacity of the communities served in building decent and disaster-resilient houses.
Leveraging government
We have been strategically partnering with the government in Nepal to unlock multiple government housing funds for the poor, marginalized as well as disaster-affected populations.
Microfinance
We partner with local NGOs in Nepal to strengthen the housing microfinance sector and significantly increase access to housing loans to low-income families in rural communities underserved by the existing financial market.
Eco materials
We encourage families to adopt environmentally sustainable building materials and technology through our home construction.
Adaptable designs
Our disaster-resilient home designs are featured on the Nepal government’s list as being suitable for earthquake and flood-prone areas in Nepal.
