Kathleen's experience in Nepal with Challenges Abroad
Posted On Thursday, June 12, 2025
During January 2025, I spent three weeks in Nepal, on the Challenges Abroad and Future Sense collaboration as a student from Curtin University studying with the Faculty of Business and Law. This experience was centred on teaching Nepalese Women about Financial Literacy over a series of student designed and facilitated workshops that were heavily aligned to the sustainable development goals of Gender Equality and Decent Work and Economic Growth. It was truly once-in-a-lifetime experience that I am grateful taught me much more about Asia and how important sustainability is and how it impacts countries and societies across the globe.
Tanzania: 22 Toilets for 455 Girls! Help Us Raise $13,500 to Build Safe Toilets
Posted On Monday, June 2, 2025
When we think about what young people need to thrive, we often think of books, teachers, and classrooms. But one basic necessity often gets overlooked: a clean, safe toilet.
At one of schools that we are working with across our programs in Tanzania, 455 female students currently do not have access to proper sanitation facilities. This June, while the school is closed for summer break, the FutureSense Foundation is planning to change that!
Challenges Abroad is proudly sponsoring this project, and we’re calling on our incredible community of young changemakers and alumni to help us make it happen.
