… we are able to support 10 girls, this time from all 4 villages, to complete their higher education with the 11th and 12th grade. They live in Sallerie in rented rooms and have their own kitchen. Lena Kremser organised pretty blouses which they were very happy about.
Many thanks to our sponsors, without whom all this would not be possible.
… we secure education for more than 200 girls
… a new livelihood is created for almost 300 women in 4 villages through organic vegetable cultivation.
… the first 50 women have already been officially certified.
.. 3 model farms in Chyangsar, Ghunsa – since 2022 also in Kunikhop – are fully operational.
.. Merangding already has a greenhouse, next year also a training hall.
We are proud of the women of Sagarmatha Milijuli Mahila Cooperative, who are taking their destiny in their hands and living incredible change in a short time.
A great year 2022 – we look forward to 2023 ?
… to all supporters 2022, all friends and partners of Roots for Life and their families.
We have worked fantastically together as a team, achieved a lot, had a lot of fun and also have a lot planned for the next year.
We hope that you will continue to accompany us in 2023 and support us as much as possible. Whether as sponsors (please contact us at office@rootsforlife.info) or with one-off donations and sponsorships.
… was the survey on the mental health of the women in the four villages for the psychology team. In just a few days, all the villages were visited and various discussions were held. With this we want to give the women a space
With this, we want to give the women a space to talk to professionals, possibly ask for help or simply share their mood for change through the projects.
Many thanks to Dr Ravi Raj Timasina and his team, as well as to Racedi Pathak and Kusang Tamang for their great work.
… of the PGS training for organic vegetable production in Kunikhop was successfully attended by all women. The model farm was activated very quickly and so it was possible to show the women a lot of practical things. It was great that this training could already take place in the new training hall, as it would not have been possible outdoors due to bad weather. Unfortunately, there is no furniture yet, but the women made themselves comfortable on the floor. The team of Social Work Institute Nepal and HASERA did a great job. The women go home highly motivated with a certificate and plants.
Many thanks to Schöck- Familien- Stiftung GmbH for financially supporting this project.
… we want to go with the women in the villages of Solududhkunda also with regard to toilets. At the moment, there are all kinds of options, from very rudimentary to septic tanks, far away as a rickety hut to a little stone house next to the dwelling house. In the sense of permaculture, the cycle can be closed here too and everything can be used. Taking into account local possibilities, we are working on a prototype that works with wooden floors. This should not only support agriculture, but also improve the situation for the women.
Many thanks at this point especially to HASERA, with whom we have already tested a lot.
Now we hope for financial support so that the first 50 households can be equipped with composting toilets.
… is also a big event in Kunikhop. Like everywhere else in the world, the girls in Nepal also want to be ” grown up” at last. They proudly receive their school materials and put on their backpacks. For some families it would not be possible to send the girls to school without our support.
Many thanks to our sponsors who make this possible.
… it took in Kunikhop and a beautiful training hall could be completed in its shell. All the work was done with local materials and local labour. How great – this way all the added value stays in the village. There is also a lot going on in the greenhouse and in the field.
Many thanks to the Schoeck-Familien-Stiftung, which is providing significant support for this project.
… of all the activities of Roots for Life was given by Carola Gosch at a charity event. A video of the interview with a summary of the great work of Roots for Life has also been created – take a look.
Many thanks to Martina Pophal for the great moderation.

… the women from Merangding and Kunikhop were very happy about the generous donation of the company Konrath Neunkirchen https://www.facebook.com/GartencenterKonrath/ With the 15 automatic window openers the large greenhouses can be operated safely and mold can be avoided.
Many thanks to the company Konrath in the name of the cooperative.
