Surya Nepal is actively involved in afforestation drives, providing free plants for a greener Nepal. Surya Nepal has been enhancing awareness in the local community and contributing in the beautification of roads as a model green road/green zone. Implemented activities include planting and safeguarding of trees on roadsides, maintenance and construction of bus stand, road lighting, roadside gardening and preserving trees and historical monuments at road junction/sides.
Surya Nepal has also been enhancing awareness in the local community with the objective of achieving environmentally sustainable development through tree plantation. Preserving and enriching community and social forestry as a “model community asset for environmental preservation” by implementing activities such as planting and maintaining trees in schools and public places and organizing awareness sessions at users’ group, student and youth group levels to promote plantation and environmental education at schools and households are Surya Nepal’s other important activities.
In order to scale up its activities, Surya Nepal seeks partners who will provide with suitable species of trees that are ideal for planting in schools and public places. Surya Nepal will take care of maintenance, support and protection. This has created awareness among more than 1,000 farmers from Bara, Parsa, Rautahat, Sarlahi and Dhanusa Districts and 10,000 students from 14 schools from Nijgadh (Bara), Jhabarah (Parsa), Rautahat, and Dhanusha Districts.
Thus, Surya Nepal will continuously endeavor to enhance its engagement through specific public-private partnership.
