Welcome to IDS Nepal
Promotion of sustainable development relies on community involvement in all phases of planning, designing, implementation and evaluation. The practice of centralized bureaucratic mechanism neglects the actual need of the community. It neither brings poverty level down nor persuades sustainable activities. Thus in lieu with this situation, to promote the development process by empowering the local community, an organization named Integrated Development Society (IDS-Nepal) has been established.
IDS Nepal is a non-profit, non-government, development organization established by young and energetic professionals who have experiences in engineering, energy, environment, health, sanitation, capacity development and social development field.
