Stichting BRAC International’s (BI) journey started in 2002,
when BRAC, a non-governmental organisation of Bangladeshi origin, started its
global operation. With 40 years of experience in reaching out to 120 million
Bangladeshis and proven solutions to effectively tackle poverty, BRAC realised
that it could foster the same change for the poor in other countries. Currently
BRAC is implementing programmes in 11 countries of Asia and Africa.
In Nepal, BRAC registered as an international
non-governmental organisation with the Social Welfare Council in 2015. BRAC is
working in Kavre and Kathmandu districts in WASH, strengthening the skills of
female community health volunteers, adolescent girls, agriculture, livestock
and skills development for urban poor youth.
