Hello friends
I wanted to share where we’re at with our climateandhealth initiative in Nepal and what’s coming next.
The link between climate change and health is getting clearer every day in Nepal. As temperatures rise, glaciers retreat, weather patterns shift and water and sanitation systems under strain, people are paying the price.
We’ve been focusing our work in rural, offgrid communities where the health burden is highest and the resources are lowest. We’re helping with cleaner energy (which translates to fewer indoor pollutants), better access to care and stronger climate resilience at the same time.
What’s happening now:
We’ve identified new communities that are eager to partner with us and start the next phase of the programme.
We’re preparing to expand our renewable energy & health systems work so that people have safer homes, better cooking stoves, improved air quality and stronger resilience to climate stress.
We’re also building capacity locally so that changes can last beyond our direct intervention.
What we still need:
The funds we have raised so far have kept the groundwork going, but to scale the next phase we need more support. That means more equipment, training, materials, and local followup to make the real leaps we know are possible.
Because when you help stabilise the link between climate and health, you help someone live a healthier life, eliminate avoidable illness and give a community a stronger future.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support makes the difference.
