Nepal is an astonishingly beautiful and diverse country, ranging from the well-known peaks of the Himalaya to the low-lying regions of the Terai. The Nepali people are culturally diverse, with over 70 languages or dialects and scores of traditional festivals celebrated throughout the year. The nation deserves to take pride in having a unique, and indeed very rich cultural and historical background.
Nepal is also an under-developed country, with low rates of literacy, high rates of poverty and a persistent gender imbalance. The government is frequently unable to provide sufficient or adequate education and health facilities in rural areas, and those in urban areas are poorly resourced.

Volunteer Society Nepal seeks to address these issues of literacy, poverty and gender imbalance. By working in partnership with Nepali communities. Volunteer Society Nepal ensures that the progress made is sustainable.

Volunteer Society Nepal co-ordinates construction, health, environmental, income generation projects and education projects throughout economically poor areas of Nepal. These projects provide opportunities for national and international volunteers to assist in the development of Nepal. Volunteer Society Nepal also runs a cultural exchange program, Nepali language and cultural classes and a homestay program in Nepal.
