Community Action Nepal

Community Action Nepal is a UK based charity whose aim is to help some of the poorest people on the planet – the mountain people of Nepal. It helps local communities to raise their standard of living and strengthens Indigenous, community-based cultures. We have a proven track record improving the standard of living in remote mountain communities, delivering anti-poverty initiatives, and advancing health care in Nepal over the past 25 years. The charity was set up by the British mountaineer Doug Scott (1941-2020), who was the first Briton to summit Everest in 1975 with Dougal Haston. All these years later the provision of education, essential health care and livelihood support remains a continuing challenge in remote mountain communities with the Covid-19 pandemic in Nepal reinforcing the importance of CAN’s work.
CAN’s ethos is quite simple in its ultimate objective; to provide support where it is needed the most, straying off the beaten track to support communities to help themselves, and reduce donor dependency.

Your Impact

Nepal is the second poorest country in Asia with a history of civil war, corruption, and devastating earthquakes. It is highly vulnerable to climate change; the rate of warming in the Himalaya is twice the global average.
In the last 25 years CAN has achieved significant success delivering development projects across central and eastern areas of the country with 60 projects in 40 communities supporting 250,000 mountain people. However, at the request of the Nepalese government we are now concentrating our efforts in North Gorkha to maximise impact.
