The document outlines a vision to establish 100 self-sustaining townships across Nepal by 2030 through collective knowledge and investment. It describes buildNepal's model of testing township development at 7 pilot locations between 2010-2020 and establishing an academic program in township development by 2015. The key to achieving 100 independent townships involves development councils collaborating across villages, promoting social enterprises, and gaining support from global Nepali citizens and diaspora networks.

But How it Works?
1. Devise Replicable Townships
2010 – 2013
2. Test Model at 7 Townships 2010
– 2020
3. Academic Programs: Masters in
Township Development 2015
4. Start 100 Independent
Townships across Nepal by
2030

6. Key Words for 2 minsHOW
Communities = more than one people working for common goal Social Enterprises = Business for 3P (Profit, People, & Planet )
Townships = Collaboration & Cooperation among 3 to 10 VDCs ( ) of Nepal
Self Sustaining & Self Managing Townships = Dream Together & ACT to pursue the Dream; Upgrade one step at a time with what a township already have
