Tech2Empower Nepal

Program Overview

In April 2023, WAKE joined hands with leading technology professionals, six women-led Nepali social enterprises, and esteemed local partners to drive change and promote gender equity and social justice in Nepal. Over a week-long immersive event in Kathmandu followed by six weeks of virtual collaboration, tech Advisors and social enterprise leaders partnered to work on impact projects aimed at amplifying their social initiatives. From expertly crafted pitch decks, to calculated digital communication strategies, to enhanced data management systems, the resulting project outcomes have been outstanding.
