In 2018, we successfully launched the laptop program at 15 new schools in Darchula.
1300+ young learners are learning on 243 fully loaded laptops, with the help of 58 trained teachers.
We couldn’t have done this without the help of our supporters in Nepal and all over the world.

The comparison of baseline and midline survey results revealed that students have made an impressive improvement in learning English, Science and Mathematics. Though we are aware that many factors contribute to the improvement in student learning, students were able to learn concepts at a pace that would not have been possible with the traditional way of learning. You can learn more about the study here.

Our Previous Campaigns

“Fundraising for laptop program in Jajarkot district of Karnali Province”
In 2019, our team at Open Learning Exchange (OLE) Nepal worked on local government authorities to bring the laptop program to 12 new primary schools of Jajarkot district. This was the first laptop program launched by OLE Nepal in Karnali Province. Our team worked closely with the Kuse Rural Municipality and Nalgad Municipality offices to introduce a better learning environment through the use of digital learning resources and laptops along with intensive teacher training, and on-site support program. OLE Nepal implemented the laptop teacher training program and teaching with technology residency program with the support of UN World Food Programme’s (WFP) School Meals Programme, which is supported by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), through the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition grant. Local government also contributed towards the solar power systems at the schools, while OLE Nepal raised funds for the laptops that were deployed to the schools. We would like to thank Ram K.C. and Karen James for helping raise funds for the laptops through their Annual Benefit event in 2018, and the communities of Goshen and Middlebury, Indiana for their continuous support.
