Inspired by the work of Rato Bangala School and the
experience in quality education, Rato Bangala Foundation has been set
up to bring quality education to the wider Nepali community. Rato Bangala
Foundation focuses on educational issues, and seeks to provide better
educational opportunities to Nepali children, and eventually make a
small contribution to building the nation.
Rato Bangala Foundation is a not for profit organisation,
registered under the District Administrative Office and affiliated with
the Social Welfare Council. The primary responsibility of the Foundation
so far has been the conception and implementation of the one-year
Primary Teacher-Training Program run
jointly with Kathmandu University, and Bank Street College of Education
in New York.
Taking a bold step, the Foundation is now in the midst
of organising a national level conference in education. The strength
of this conference is its inclusion of educationists from over 23 of
Nepal's 75 districts.
