PHASE Worldwide believes that everyone, everywhere, even those in the most remote places in the world, should have access to primary healthcare, basic education, and livelihoods opportunities. Every year, PHASE Worldwide’s support changes the lives of rural Himalayan communities in remote areas of Nepal. In these areas, poor health, low levels of education and few livelihood opportunities trap people in a cycle of poverty. This cycle prevents people from taking control of their lives.

Through their local partner PHASE Nepal, they support integrated and sustainable health, education, and livelihood projects. They enable people to access knowledge, skills, services, whilst at the same time, strengthening local government provision. They aim to make a lasting difference, but not to stay.

PHASE Worldwide have committed to ringfencing 100% of the Be One Percent grant towards their third and final year of the Start Strong Project in the Far West of Nepal, which is improving access to maternal healthcare and reducing malnutrition in children through integrated maternal healthcare, nutrition, and livelihoods activities in Rugin and Bichhaya, Bajura.
