QVI Nepal July 2024
Pip has chosen to volunteer with the QVI program in Nepal, supporting communities and schools.
She will be joining a team of international teen volunteers in Nepal to contribute to development goals set by the United Nations. She will learn about social issues in Nepal as well as Nepali spiritual traditions.
Teens volunteering with GVI in Nepal will focus on improving the health and safety standards of educational facilities in Pokhara. Projects might include building desks for classrooms or installing water tanks for drinking water. This allows teen volunteers to directly contribute not only to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #4, Quality Education, but also other goals like #3, Health and Wellbeing. Teens will also learn about the ethical best practices used to set up international developments like these, including the importance of ensuring these projects are lead by the local community.
