Types of Projects[edit]
School Construction[edit]
School contruction is the main focus of Human Practice Foundation. The foundation works on constructing new school buildings in already existing-schools, in order to create improved learning environments for children and teachers making school buildings more modern and sanitary, believing it will make it easier for the students and teachers to learn and teach in. [3] As of September 2018, 44 schools, with a total of 15,500 children have been built with a combined fund of DKK44 million ($7 million). [4] Apart from just constructing schools, HPF also has training programs for teachers in every school they operate a project in to improve their teachers' teaching skills.
Impact Projects[edit]
In addition to school construction, the foundation also operates impact projects in Nepal. One being the Bhakanje Tea Project, done in collaboration with the Nepali NGO Himlayan Project, working on improving tea farming through both training in farmer's agricultural skills as well as constructing new production facilities, such as greenhouses.[5][6] A similar project with coffee is done with the organization Lekali Coffee Estate, which focuses on helping Nepali coffee farmers commercialize and market their coffee production, intented to raise the farmers' incomes.[7] Additionally, Human Practice Foundation also sells bracelets which they call Dar Cho Bracelets, created in order to fund the construction of Sarada Secondary School in Taplejung. The total cost of the bracelets bought will go to the school's construction, and 1000 sold bracelets will cover the the construction's cost.[8]
