GNSD SISTER SCHOOLS PROJECT
Through the Sister Schools Project, GNSD Nepal intends to facilitate partnership between schools in economically developed countries with poor schools, what may open a new opportunity for both the schools. GNSD has already a network of collaborators in China, India, Nepal, Poland, USA and some countries of Africa. By working with students in these countries, GNSD may provide them with the opportunity to collaborate and engage in community development with immediate global consequences. GNSD Nepal through its partner organizations and collaboration experts in the area of sustainable development, is able to create educational content, that based on the principle “learning by doing” will contribute to realization of sustainable development goals by engaging the youth in the process of their implementation.
