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.
