Edit and Write Content for the Website
Over the last several months, Tejanath has been working with a website developer based in Kathmandu to establish a website featuring information about the Sankhuwasabha district of Nepal. The website is located here:
For this task, we are looking for volunteers to provide editing support, and also volunteers to help Tejanath write content for the website. What type of information would be useful in terms of making the website a successful marketing tool?
Define the tourism project
Arun Valley Concern Center would like to support tourism efforts throughout the Sankhuwashbha district of Nepal and draw more tourists into the region. In order to help us establish a clear direction forward, we need a good project definition.
What do we want to offer in terms of support to existing tourism agencies?
What support can we offer to the local community to allow them to benefit from the tourists that come through the area?
Help Tejanath complete a SWOT analysis
For our project to move forward, we need to first define what resources and barriers exist in order to appropriately plan a way forward.
Tejanath has been working on an initial SWOT analysis for the project and will post it here as a place to start. Please review the proposed project and background information in our village and help us list items to complete the SWOT analysis.
