Prosper Global in Nepal

Prosper Global started operations in Nepal in 2005. Since then, the agency has been working to build the absorptive, adaptive and transformative potential of vulnerable individuals and communities across the country. That goal is attained through a systems-based approach to market development, financial services, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation and youth engagement through the lens of gender equity and social inclusion.

Prosper Global is an international, non-governmental humanitarian relief and development agency that exists to alleviate suffering, poverty and oppression by helping people to build secure, productive and just communities. Prosper Global was established in 1979, and has headquarters in the USA and UK. Since 1979, Prosper Global has worked in over 100 countries. Prosper Global currently works in 41 countries around the world and improving the lives of 19 million people.

The agency focuses on countries in transition, where countries are in the midst of – or recovering from – conflict, economic collapse, or disaster; Prosper Global sees these crisis situations as moments of opportunity to go beyond traditional boundaries of relief and catalyze lasting change. Globally, Prosper Global implements programs in a range of sectors, including: agriculture & food security; market development; emergency response; disaster risk reduction; climate change; health; conflict management; youth engagement; and, community mobilization/ governance.
