It was started with a “Drinking Water Project” in Tobang supported by Nepal Benefiet Aalsmeer in collaboration with Kanchan Nepal. SVSI partnered in the construction of rainwater harvesting tanks of 6500 liters each for 33 families and a 20,000-liter tank for a Shree Bhulbhule Basic School in Tobang. This initiative led to further collaboration between SVSI, KN, LI-BIRD, and IRHA for "Integrated Resources Management of Water and Ecosystem in Central Hills of Nepal" project.

Details of the project:

Sapana Village Social Impact is focused on the five rain communities of Ichchhakamana Rural Municipality-1 and 2, namely Hattibang, Tobang, Kaule, Chhapdada, and Ghurkesh. The project aims to improve water conservation practices by implementing certain activities such as “Tree-Plantation – reforestation”, “landslide Protection” through terrace farming, community involvement in the green corridor and community nursery development, and natural pollination through honeybee production and conservation. The project is also committed to improving income generation by helping local people with their farming practices, agro-ecological approaches to farming, packaging & marketing of locally produced farm products.

The project also aims to upgrade the livelihood of the marginalized community people from Ichchhakamana Rural Municipality such as “Chepang” and other backward communities due to inaccessibility of the basic facilities such as Gurung, Magar, Tamang, and poor Brahmin and Chhetri of the locality.

Some of the major activities associated with this project are:

- Blue School Program (Water and Sanitation Program) at different schools in the intervention area.
