Development partners and environmental entrepreneurs.

• The Challenge: Nepal is high-risk for climate change, but aid and grants are not enough to bridge the infrastructure gap.
• The Market Solution: Moving from “Charity to Capital.” This post explores how the private sector can lead in climate-resilient infrastructure—from drone-assisted precision farming in the Madhesh province to private “Green Bonds” for small hydro projects.
• NPI’s Vision: Environmental stewardship is most effective when it is profitable. We advocate for policies that reward businesses for “building back better” and using sustainable materials.
