What We Believe
  • We believe that citizens of low- and medium-income countries such as Nepal are fully capable of delivering transformation when provided with an opportunity.
  • We recognize that marginalized students are capable of academic excellence.  
  • We believe that faculty at educational institutions are also interested, like faculty everywhere, in teaching and in learning more about their profession.  
  • We believe that students motivated by their mentors and peers learn from one another and develop a deep culture of learning.
  • ​We do not discriminate because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 
What We Measure and Report

We expect to demonstrate a record of accomplishment and accountability that helps to ensure a refreshed educational institution - providing benefits to individual students, the economy, the culture, the environment, and national food security concerns.

 

Our ultimate metrics of success include: 

  • Numbers of B.Sc. and M.Sc. students supported by this project and enrolled in a food security curriculum each year.

  • Thesis and conclusions of M.Sc. student research projects and published results.

  • Contributions of graduated students to careers in domestic food security industries.

  • Efforts to prioritize and target the most urgent and underfunded food security needs.

  • Subject matter contributions and results of visiting scholars to in-country host institutions.
