- 			School starts .... in April/May in Nepal and our students should be well prepared for this. In Kathmandu the schools are closed again due to the lockdown, we hope they will stay open in the villages. In any case, we wish everyone a successful school year. Many thanks to all our sponsors and private donors who stand behind the scholarship holders. 
- 			Fewer coughs .... and colds were seen in the villages this winter. The reason for this is the masks worn by the women, especially on cold days when working outdoors. The masks also do a good job of protecting the lungs against the smoke in families where cooking is still done on an open fire in the house. We are happy that we can contribute something to the health of the population in the villages. Many thanks to the province of Vorarlberg and Chay-ya Austria without whose financial support this project would not have been possible.
