Partnership with Kathmandu University School of Education
We are very excited about the recent agreement with Kathmandu University School of Education (KUSOED) collaborate to further strengthen ICT-based education programs in Nepal’s public school system. OLE Nepal has always believed in expanding the reach of ICT through collaborations and partnerships with governmental and non-governmental institutions. It is a win-win situation for both parties. While the partnership allows OLE Nepal to tap into a pool of talented students to help in the expansion of its program in the country, KUSOED can take advantage of the rich experience that OLE Nepal has gathered over the years in the design and implementation of ICT-integrated education.

E-Pustakalaya Installation at Moti Community Library, Phalebas, Parbat
OLE Nepal’s team met Mr. Bhola Nath Sharma during a visit to install E-Pustakalaya at Moti Community Library in Phalebas, Parbat district, and was immediately impressed by his dedication to uplifting his community. The people of Phalebas have great respect for Mr. Sharma and his contributions to community development. Moti Community Library, Radio Parbat, Helping Hands Health Clinic, and Bhawani Bidyapith H.S. School are some of the institutions he currently heads. Even in his seventies, he continues to work tirelessly on community development. During our two-day stay in Phalebas, we found him engaged in meetings and events throughout the day, often advising villagers on ways to make Moti Community Library self-sustainable.
