The assessment identified concerns related to educational disruption, economic vulnerability, bereavement and the risk of children dropping out of school. It also flagged the risk of long-term student displacement and permanent school closures.These findings highlighted the need for support that addresses both the immediate costs of education and children&#8217;s broader developmental needs.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Drawing on five years of work in holistic education and climate action, Chakraviu Nepal has developed Project S\u0100RAD\u0100 to respond to these concerns through educational assistance, wellbeing activities, mentorship programs and creative expression.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d16d8b;\"><strong>Three Components of Project S\u0100RAD\u0100<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9906 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/chakraviunepal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Project-Sarada-Recovered_Horizontal-transparent-e1793346975951-300x87.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"87\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chakraviunepal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Project-Sarada-Recovered_Horizontal-transparent-e1793346975951-300x87.png 300w, https:\/\/chakraviunepal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Project-Sarada-Recovered_Horizontal-transparent-e1793346975951-768x223.png 768w, https:\/\/chakraviunepal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Project-Sarada-Recovered_Horizontal-transparent-e1793346975951-600x175.png 600w, https:\/\/chakraviunepal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Project-Sarada-Recovered_Horizontal-transparent-e1793346975951.png 997w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p><p><br><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Project S\u0100RAD\u0100 brings together three complementary components, represented by the Veena, the White Lotus, and the Book.

Beyond providing access to musical instruments, the project will organize group sessions where children can explore music together, express their emotions, connect with peers, and build confidence. The emphasis is on creating opportunities for meaningful participation, creative exploration, and shared learning through music.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #d16d8b;\">The White Lotus<\/span><\/strong><br><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It symbolizes the possibility of flourishing despite hardship, much like a lotus that grows in muddy water yet blooms beautifully. Over the two-year program, children will participate in eight mentorship and exposure sessions with experts from diverse fields, including education, science, arts, business, sports, and others.These sessions will provide opportunities for reflection, learning, growth, and social connection. The program will also introduce dedicated movie walls, gratitude corners, holistic wellbeing and education programs in schools to support visual learning, along with gratitude and positive affirmation practices to nurture children&#8217;s confidence, overall wellbeing, and personal growth.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #d16d8b;\">The Book<\/span><\/strong><br><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Symbolizing the power of knowledge to shape futures, the Book reflects Project S\u0100RAD\u0100\u2019s commitment to helping children access and continue their quality education.<br><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Quality Education Support Package under Project S\u0100RAD\u0100 provides students with essential educational and learning materials, including stationery items, textbooks, notebooks, storybooks, art and craft supplies, journals, workbooks, drawing books, colouring materials, educational games, reading materials, school bags, school uniforms and other ageappropriate learning resources to support classroom participation, creativity, and holistic development. Additionally, students identified as requiring long-term support will be considered for the ARC Fellowship Programme, which provides continuous, holistic development support for up to 11 years, from school-level education through graduation from Grade 12 (+2).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Supporting Project S\u0100RAD\u0100 <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chakraviu Nepal has set a fundraising target of USD 62,500 to support the two-year initiative.
