Happy 2026! We’re back with another update as projects get back in motion after the winter break.
As mentioned in our October update, this year we partnered with Sanskriti Farms on our flagship educational programme in Ireland, Where There Is No Engineer (WTINE). Shree Krishna Dhital, Director of Sanskriti Farms, has engaged with students in Irish universities during semester one - and will continue to do so in semester two - by providing insights into the local context, giving feedback on their projects, and answering questions. This collaboration is key to the programme and offers students an invaluable, hands-on opportunity to learn about global challenges faced by communities in different contexts.
Meanwhile, the team in Nepal is currently finalising the analysis of the KAP surveys conducted with biochar users. Once this is complete, we will organise a meeting to discuss the findings and agree on the next steps for the project.
As you may be aware, ongoing funding cuts across the development aid sector continue to pose challenges for many organisations and projects, including ours. We are actively working to secure additional funding to continue this work and ensure a lasting positive impact for the communities involved. We hope to share more positive news on this front in our next update as 2026 unfolds.
Thank you once again for your continued support of this project!
