The Bhotekoshi River flood is a major hydrological hazard affecting communities and infrastructure along the Bhotekoshi–Sun Koshi river system in Nepal, particularly in Sindhupalchok and downstream areas. The river originates in the Himalayas and is highly susceptible to intense monsoon rainfall, landslides, glacial hazards, and sudden changes in upstream water flow. Flood events can rapidly inundate settlements, damage roads and bridges, disrupt hydropower facilities, destroy agricultural land and livelihoods, and isolate remote communities. The 2026 flood crisis caused severe humanitarian impacts, including deaths, displacement, infrastructure damage, loss of livelihoods, and disruption of essential services in several affected districts.

We have very high regard for WCN's professionalism and dedication to the cause of sustainable natural resource management and their core value area of conservation. WCN has clearly shown its leadership by creating a massive and positive social impact in its working areas and thus becoming a leading voice representing the civil society in Nepal.

I have a close, eight year long professional history with WCN. Having worked in the development sector for 15 years, spanning over ten different countries, I can say that WCN has no comparison. Their dedication, professionalism, and ability to think and act strategically and creatively to improve the quality of environmental education in the Nepalese education sector is truly inspiring. The same goes for their work with community forestry economic development projects through climate mitigation and adaption initiatives. As we face the double crisis of biodiversity loss and climate change, the work that they are doing is more important than ever. I hope that you will get the experience to work and make positive change happen together with WCN.
