Description
Welcome to our center in Nepal, home to an FM Radio Station that has been operational for 16 years, catering to the rural areas of Nepal. The center has successfully organized numerous Agro Counseling Camps and Crop Treatment Programs. The radio station plays a pivotal role in serving the community by delivering current affairs, news, diverse perspectives, and agricultural consultation programs.
We make radio in Nepali language, but we like to get help with social media, webcontent, podmaking and other technical aspects. We are depending on advertising income, so we are always open to suggestions how we can attract more listeners. If you have ideas about fundraising, it would be a great advantage!
There are a few schools in the region where the students (age 10-16) would benefit of talking with English speaking foreigners. You could give guest lessons or just sit and talk with them.
Around our radio station we have a land where we grow a number of vegetables as a teaching example for in our training programs for farmers, like a botanical garden. Volunteers are welcome to help here, depending on the season.
Help:
- help with social media, webcontent, podmaking and other technical aspects
- PR and fundraising
- conversation training on local schools (age 10-16)
- farming help, depending on the season

To give conversation training at the schools was a challenge as the students had a much lower level than those in India and most of them didn’t open their mouth at all.
