Nepal Communitere, in partnership Field Ready, and local engineering clubs and universities across Nepal and Bhutan, is piloting the Humanitarian Design Challenge (HDC) in Nepal. The project which will officially start in 2020, is currently in this mapping phase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Humanitarian Design Challenge will provide knowledge and practical experience in digital manufacturing, 3D designing and rapid prototyping to over 500 student-engineers, makers, and teachers from Nepal and Bhutan. Through design workshops, the participants will tackle a challenge that will particularly focus on real world solutions for disaster-affected communities. The project will not only find real world solutions to many challenges but also improve and increase the network between universities and maker organizations in the two counties. Teams of students, teachers, and people in the private sector will be made so that they can create products that tackle real-life challenges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
