  • Research

At Chakraviu Nepal, research is the backbone of our work. Our research focuses on practical, field-based inquiry that improves educational experiences, strengthens community systems, and advances environmental sustainability.

Our Research Approach

We adopt an applied and action-oriented research framework, grounded in real classrooms and lived community contexts. Our work combines:

  • Classroom Action Research (CAR)
  • Participatory and observational studies
  • Qualitative feedback from students, teachers, and families
  • Program-based documentation and outcome analysis

This approach allows us to continuously refine our models while remaining responsive to students’ needs and local realities.

Key Research Areas

Holistically Empowered Classrooms (Build a Classroom)

We study how thoughtfully designed classroom environments influence student engagement, wellbeing, and learning behavior.

Our research within this project explores:

  • How physical classroom elements (reading nooks, creativity spaces, gratitude corners, interactive learning stations) affect student participation
  • The relationship between classroom design and social, emotional, and cognitive development
  • Teacher and student interactions within flexible, non-traditional learning spaces
  • Long-term impacts of environment-centered learning on curiosity and confidence

Classroom Action Research (CAR)

Chakraviu Nepal implements Classroom Action Research as a continuous improvement tool within schools. CAR enables educators and facilitators to observe learning processes, test interventions, and refine teaching methods in real time. Our CAR work focuses on:
  • Student engagement and participation patterns
  • Social-emotional learning outcomes
  • Effectiveness of experiential and activity-based pedagogy
  • Adaptive teaching strategies for diverse learners

Education Access & Learning Resources

We study how access to appropriate learning materials and supportive environments influences educational outcomes, particularly in rural and resource-limited settings.

Research areas include:

  • Barriers to access for students from low-income families
  • Impact of upcycled and creative learning tools on motivation and retention
  • Holistic learning sessions and their role in student wellbeing

Environmental Sustainability & Circular Innovation

Through our  Upcycling Lab, we research the environmental and social impact of circular solutions, particularly denim upcycling for education.
Our work includes:
  • Assessing denim waste streams and reuse potential
  • Measuring environmental benefits such as waste diversion and resource conservation
  • Studying the integration of environmental learning within education programs

Community Livelihoods & Skill Development

We examine how skill-based, education-linked livelihood models contribute to household resilience and long-term impact.

Our research explores:

  • Income generation through upcycling skills
  • Training effectiveness and skill retention
  • The relationship between parental livelihoods and children’s educational continuity
