| Outdoors Nepal is an institution
which conducts outdoor adventure activities
for school and college students. Through this
program, the students can learn about the
wilderness and adventure in the outdoors,
and about the environment and the part it
plays in our lives. They can hone their skills
in leadership and group dynamism. As a result,
they grow to be more aware of their role in
a group and in the environment. It helps to
build quality lives. |

| The Mission of
Outdoors Nepal is: To enhance individual
character, promote self-discovery and challenge
students to cultivate self-reliance, leadership,
fitness, compassion and service through exceptional
wilderness education.
Through intensive trainings, publications,
videos, electronic webs, and experiential
education ‘Leave No Trace’ focuses
on prevention rather than reaction. The skills
acquired through Leave No Trace (LNT) trainings
instil individual responsibility that carry
over from pristine backcountry to school yards,
local parks, and even one's own backyard.

ON realizes that many educational
objectives are best met through integration
of classroom learning with an active participation
in the outdoors. ON approach to experiential
learning sets the tone for an atmosphere in
which it is acceptable for participants to
step outside their comfort zone and take risks.
These risks are the basis upon which participants
explore their personalities and conscience.
ON aims to develop interpersonal skills and
group dynamism through this program thus participants
from different schools and background will
come together as a team. Therefore, they are
expected to interact and learn from other
members.
