Sikaru Saathi

Sikaru Saathi combines playful learning with e-waste education to promote curiosity and creativity while learning about the state of e-waste in Nepal and a maker-centered approach to problem solving by repairing electronics. We are a joint collaboration led by Karkhana Samuha in partnership with Doko Recyclers with funding from Lang Social Impact Fellow, Eriko Shrestha of Swarthmore College. We offer online resources like repair videos for you to start tinkering at home and intensive e-waste bootcamps for school students to strengthen STEAM education.
