INVITATION FOR BIDS For Supply and Delivery of Construction Materials for School Construction Projects

UWS Nepal is a charity organisation dedicated to improving educational opportunities for underprivileged children. We started operations in 2015 as a non-profit, the same year our country witnessed a 7.8 magnitude earthquake. Post-earthquake UWS Nepal has constructed 636 earthquake-resistant classrooms across 321 communities, educating 20,690 students in our Sankhuwasabha, Gulmi, Bhojpur, Taplejung and Tanahun districts. We aim to provide quality education to all children, and to reach that goal; we work to improve educational opportunities for children living in marginalised communities and remote regions. Our education transformation philosophy is maintained by developing and introducing child-friendly pedagogies that allow for more significant innovation in the classroom and greater engagement between the in-class lessons and real life, parents-teacher relationship, and harmonised relationship between local government and local communities in a shared mission to ensure a future for children in the communities where we work.

Our vision is Zero Education Poverty.
