STARRY is a 24-month ESC Humanitarian Aid project that unites seven grassroots organisations across Europe, Africa, Asia and South America among them Volunteers Initiative Nepal (ViN)—to deploy 56 young volunteers where humanitarian support is most needed. Guided by Building Bridges Association of Spain, the programme channels energy into education, public health, gender equality, environmental resilience and youth livelihoods in Azerbaijan, Morocco, Nepal, Peru and Tanzania. In Nepal, ViN mentors volunteers who run after-school learning clubs, deliver hygiene and menstrual-health workshops, coach budding entrepreneurs and showcase climate-smart farming. All activities rely on non-formal education so that community members and volunteers develop practical skills side by side, while the project as a whole strengthens local capacity and nurtures each participant’s leadership, intercultural communication and teamwork.
