UCEP-Nepal, a leading NGO of Nepal, works on four major thematic areas namely Technical and Vocational Education &Training, Educational Support Program, Child Rights and Child Protection Program and Advocacy & Networking on child rights by ensuring child rights and increasing access of children & young people to formal and vocational education.

Who we are

Underprivileged Children’s Educational Programs (UCEP), Nepal is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) founded in 1978 A.D. by Dr. Lindsay Alan Cheyne of New Zealand. The main objective of UCEP is to uplift the living conditions of underprivileged, disadvantaged and working children by providing access to education and job oriented technical and vocational training. Initially, it was established as an extension of UCEP-Bangladesh under the umbrella organization UCEP-International. In 1992 UCEP Nepal received the status of independent and autonomous organization following formal registration at District Administration Office, Bhaktapur under the Institution Registration Act 2034. It is also affiliated to Social Welfare Council of the government of Nepal, which is mandatory for all NGOs.

What we do

UCEP Nepal provides vocational training in 32 different trades securing around 80% job placement rate for its graduates. Till date UCEP Nepal has provided vocational training to 60,000 youth ensuring 80% job placement. UCEP Nepal adheres to child protection policy of Nepal Government and actively participates in child rights networks such as CZOPP, NCPD, and HRTMCC. Additionally, it manages juvenile correctional homes in four districts for Nepal Government.
