Project location: Nepal
Project Description:
The massive earthquake in Nepal destroyed homes, schools, universities and other buildings. Investment will be required not only to rebuild infrastructure but also for psychosocial counseling to ensure that children are able to cope with the trauma and resume with their lives.
Astronomy may help them forget the fear of the earthquake because it is unique and inspirational. The activities will be focused on the schools of Gorkha, Nuwakot and Kathmandu, the most affected districts in Nepal.
