The Dolma Foundation funded a water project in a Nepalese village where UK plumbers worked alongside locals to install plumbing systems. Rather than passively watching, villagers asked detailed questions about how the system worked and how to maintain it, turning the installation into genuine knowledge transfer.

They'd done a project in the past and it didn't quite work out, so they had contractors, Splash Nepal, who run the job, but Dolma Foundation sort of like, it was their idea and they did all the funding and the fundraising for it. It was sort of, well, is there any chance any of the UK plumbers would like to come out and share their knowledge, work alongside the Nepalese? And then we also worked alongside a lot of the villagers. They all got involved, which was really nice to see because they wanted to know how the system works. They didn't just sort of like sit back, let you install it. And then hope that it works. They wanted to know how it works, why it works, what they need to do to maintain it. So they was really interested, which was really cool.
