But, most of the people of Nepal (generally outside Kathmandu) are not getting the proper education, health facilities, drinking water etc. Chhahari Group Nepal has strictly vowed to overcome with the problems that have appeared in any part of the country. Generally, Chhahari Group Nepal is oriented in providing the facilities in health, education, drinking water, and sanitation and so on respectively. A single effort will not sufficient to solve the whole problems. So, if all, national and international volunteers work collectively, the entire problem can be solved.
Chhahari Group Nepal is such volunteering organizations in which each and every volunteer are the members of this group and to show the right way and to guide the volunteers the specific problems is its motto. Moreover, all volunteers can spend most of their time with this group.

Health Internship
Program length - 2 weeks - 5 months
Medical Background Preferred


After completing Nepali Language and Cultural Training, volunteers will be placed with a Nepali family in a rural village no further than one half hour from the Health Post and hospital is only in district headquarter. Volunteers will work at the Health Post for at least two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening (actual times vary per Health Post), Sunday through Friday.

Additionally, volunteers may also teach Health Education at the local school for 1 to 2 hours each day, six days a week except on Saturdays. If time permits, volunteers may work with youth clubs or women's groups in the community, by assisting in developing and delivering First Aid and General Health Programs.

Medical students are preferred, but volunteers with some basic medical training or familiarity with health issues (e.g., family planning, nutrition) will also be considered.

Home stay / Cultural Exchange
Program length - 2 weeks - 2 months


Home stays and cultural exchange programs can be arranged in most areas of Nepal. Participants will be placed with a Nepali family in a small rural village or within a city for the duration of their stay. This provides the volunteers with an excellent opportunity to learn about all aspects of Nepali culture, lifestyle, language, food and people.

Volunteers should remember that this is a cultural exchange and that an effort to offer some knowledge of their own home culture and customs to the family with whom they stay is expected.

Home stay Programs are best organized from August to December which is the time when most large local feast and festivals take place resulting in an overall more exciting experience for the volunteer. Nepali culture is distinctively friendly and open and participants are made to feel as though they are part of the family.

Volunteers are welcome to join the Program with their children, partners or group of friends.

Training

Upon their arrival, volunteers are provided with one to two weeks of training depending on their program track. It is divided into two phases, with each phase lasting a week (for long-term volunteers, training will be extended to three weeks).

The length of the training program depends on the duration of the volunteering period. If you are volunteering for less than four weeks, the program may be shortened. This is a rigorous training program to prepare you for the cultural differences, to understand enough Nepali language to function in a village where few English speakers live, and in the case of the English Teaching Program, to effectively teach English grammar.
