Sarin, Nepal.

New Vision Academy.

We built the New Vision Academy from scratch in 2018. Eighteen volunteers from nine different countries came to Sarin to work together hand-in-hand with locals. Within five weeks, we were able to construct five classrooms โ€” a first step towards transforming the community.

Impactful Leadership.

Our Visionary Partner.

Shamser Thapa is the founder & principal of the school. Since he grew up under very poor and rough circumstances, his dream was to start a free and non-hitting school for the poorest children of the community. His modern teaching style includes positive reinforcement, creative library lessons, and the inclusion of children with Down Syndrome. Shamser increases his impact by giving workshops and teaching other school on positive reinforcement techniques.

TED Talk.

Shamser has become an advocate for teaching without violence at Nepalese schools. By spreading this message, he is hoping to inspire other principals and teachers to follow him into a world where children are not beaten for forgetting their homework. In 2019 Shamser held a TEDx Talk in Kathmandu to spread his message.
