Nepal from Binod - The Science Lab Support Project is designed to strengthen the quality of science education in remote and underserved schools across Nepal by ensuring access to essential laboratory resources. Many schools in these areas continue to rely solely on theoretical instruction due to the absence of proper laboratory equipment, limiting students’ ability to fully grasp scientific principles and experiment-based learning.
To effectively target support, the project will collaborate with local stakeholders, educational authorities, and community representatives to identify schools with the greatest need. Once selected, these schools will receive comprehensive laboratory sets aligned with the national curriculum, along with guidance on their use and maintenance. Where necessary, the project may also coordinate training for teachers to ensure they can confidently facilitate practical science activities.
