Coordinately, stage two of this plan is to link this action to providing the skills training to teachers so that they can manage children’s needs without the use of violence. We are already doing this on a small scale within our own school to demonstrate to the parents, local community and other schools surrounding that you don’t have to use violence against children to manage their in-class needs.

Thus we are looking to partner with the education agencies in Nepal (universities, training colleges) that provide teacher training and qualifications to implement compulsory subjects within their overall courses that focus upon child psychology, development of violence-free student management techniques, and relevant teaching skills that don’t simply involve lecturing straight from the text books.

On our current school and operational site we also are planning to construct an accredited teachers training facility so that we can be more effective at directly training the teachers of Nepal in teaching methods of non-violence on a much larger, more effective scale. This is one part of our long term vision for the education sector and society of Nepal. We truly believe that education is the key to creating a better Nepal to educate those that can make a difference and who are the next generation of the country. That’s our vision for a safer country.
