"I am ecologist, teacher and enterpreneur. With my Vajra Foundation I have built 9 schools in Nepal. Our dream project is the Vajra Academy, the First Green and Eco-Friendly school in Nepal. This school is delivering high skilled gradualted with a social attitude and awareness about the challenges of our time. Exactly the graduates the 21st century needs!
