… is a major concern for the women who carried out intensive training on the management of cooperatives in Kathmandu.
Some specialised topics were passed on to a larger group in a training course in Chyangsar. Representatives of the authorities were also invited and were very interested. Some of them also took part and will make use of our ‘experts’ if necessary.
Many thanks to the Schöck Family Foundation for supporting the women in the villages.
… are also used in permaculture to improve the results. Some selected farmers have been trained in this and will use it for the first time on their fields and also on the model farm. Using mushrooms, ash, cow dung and other ingredients, a so-called ‘super compost’ is produced.
We are already very excited about the results.
Many thanks to the Schöck Family Foundation for their fantastic support of the farms.

… for the best of the village. The women were duly honoured at the meeting of the cooperative. They shared their experiences with the others. We are sure that the women will continue to work well in the future, even without external support.
Many thanks to the Schöck Family Foundation for its long-term support of this project.
… in Merangding. The women not only distributed the traditional flower wreaths, they also cooked in advance and prepared everything perfectly. We really enjoyed exchanging ideas in this pleasant atmosphere. It’s great to see how the women stick together and put what they have learnt into practice.
This fantastic work is only possible thanks to the support of the Schöck Family Foundation, for which we are very grateful.
… you can also get a feel for the location of the model farms. The stone-paved road in Merangding is new. This is a great improvement for the village, as it makes it much easier to reach during the monsoon.
Many thanks to Schoeck Family Foundation for supporting the model farms.
Enthusiastic …
… we are all delighted with the success of the first tree nursery. As there had never been a tree nursery of this kind before, it was an experiment and also a risk. But the grafted trees are developing well and soon fruit will also be available on the family farms. This will enrich the children’s diet in particular.
In the future, these fruit trees can also be sold and thus generate income for the women of the co-operative.
We are delighted and would like to thank Schoeck Family Foundation for supporting this project.

Many thanks to Schoeck Family Foundation for supporting the initiative.
