About Us · हाम्रो परिचय

A Nepali organisation working for the land and the people who live on it

Green World Foundation (हरित विश्व प्रतिष्ठान) was registered in Kathmandu in 2062 B.S. by foresters, agronomists and teachers who had grown up on terraced farms and watched the springs above their villages dry up. We are a non-profit, non-political NGO affiliated with the Social Welfare Council.

Our work starts from a simple idea: when a community owns its forest, its water and its seed, it looks after them better than any project can. Every programme is planned with the ward office and run by a committee the village elects.

  • Farmer-led, community-owned
  • Native species, local seed
  • Women in every committee
  • Audited, published accounts
What We Do · हाम्रा कार्यक्षेत्र

Six ways we keep the hills green and families fed

Each area of work is planned with ward offices and local groups, so forests, springs and farms stay in community hands long after a project closes.
