About Us
Doctors For Nepal is a registered UK charity that aims to improve healthcare in rural Nepal. We provide scholarships to under-privileged medical, nursing and midwifery students. Once qualified, these students return to a rural region for a minimum of two years to provide vital medical care to isolated communities. We make this happen by:
- Funding scholarships for impoverished Nepali students to study medicine, nursing or midwifery
- Providing our medical students with books and equipment
- Supporting our scholars while they are working in isolated rural Nepal after graduation
- Funding further training and postgraduate study for DFN doctors
- Supporting rural healthcare projects
- Facilitating electives in Nepal for UK medical students
