Social issue: Right to education.
In Nepal in general, but in the rural area’s in particular, there is  a huge percentage of the population living on or below the poverty line. This affects people in all sorts of ways ranging from opportunities for education and paid jobs to social status in general. It is a downward spiral that we think can be stopped or even reversed by access to education.

Project: A scholarship program by the name CSF (Child Scholarship Fund) running in 5 different villages.

Target group: Children, especially girls, from poor rural families, who are not in school or who risk dropping out of school. Usually they are from one parent families, families with parents (or children) who are handicapped, or families who have many mouths to feed.   

Assignment: Pedagogy students are encouraged to meet the children already in the program and make house visits to see the situation they live in and suggest improvements to be made. A second assignment is to locate and identify children who are not in school yet and research possibilities to get them to attend school.  

Supervision: Is being carried out by the principal or a teacher of the school that the child attends.  They each hold a bachelor or master’s degree in social or pedagogical studies. They all have many years of experience supervising foreign students from different countries and studies.
