Three literacies, one mission
Everything we make builds capability across three connected areas, so people can work with information confidently and responsibly.
How we work
Open by default
Every course, slide deck, toolkit and dataset we publish is freely licensed, so any teacher, journalist or community leader can pick it up and run their own session.
Practical and local
We teach with real Nepali datasets, real Nepali stories and real Nepali examples. Materials are increasingly bilingual in Nepali and English.
Inclusive community
We focus on people often left out of data and tech conversations — women, youth outside the Valley, persons with disabilities and underserved local governments.
