We are targeting young girls of age group 10 to 18, through mentorship and STEAM based programs. We have initiated SMART CHELI for a cause which is to decrease the prevailing gender gap in the STEAM field in Nepal .Our aim is to enhance critical thinking, cultivating their imaginations and problem solving skills and to get exposure to STEAM from an early age.
We conduct various programs to boost the curiosity of young girls in STEAM subjects by making their learning process fun, interactive and relevant.

Let’s hear what our supergirls have to say about us and our programs!
I took part in this 5 days virtual coding program which was really informative. I didn’t know about coding before but this program helped me to gather knowledge about algorithms, coding, and game development from scratch programming. I had so much fun and I even made games by myself.
Simran Khadka, 12Chitwan
The overall journey as a mentee was an incredible learning opportunity for me. The mentorship covers not only STEM topics but also personal development. The mentors were always ready to guide us in any way possible. The program opened so many doors for me. I got an opportunity to widen my network.

I learned so many new things in these five days. I was not aware of coding before. Through this program, I learned about game development, animation, algorithm, and much more. Overall it was an fun and amazing experience learning about coding and scratch programming.
Abhipsa Bhandari, 12, Kathmandu
It was my pleasure to have received the opportunity to work and receive guidance from such fine STEM female graduates. Getting to know the struggles that they have had to overcome and the works that they have been doing to promote gender equality in STEM is something I cherish a lot. I met some like-minded people who have now become my close friends.

I got to learn a lot of things in this one-month-long coding program. The whole project was done from scratch, and we got exposure to our imaginative skills while creating animations and games. My interest in computers and technology has further increased. It was overall a great initiative and opportunity.
Samrachana Bhandari, 12Butwal
I got to know many new things in five days. Learning to animate names, imagining out of the world stuff, making games, video sensing, creating a story by myself has grown my interest in the IT field. It was really fun in this workshop.

At Smart Cheli, we are dedicated to transforming STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) education. Our most recent program, “Science Before Engineering,” has been a game changer for our devoted educators. By emphasizing scientific ideas as the foundation for engineering, we hope to improve educational quality and encourage future innovators. Smart Cheli Initiative: Science Before Engineering The Vision Behind the Initiative (Why put science ahead of engineering?) The solution lies in the symbiotic interaction between these two fields. Engineering is the practical application of scientific knowledge. Without a thorough foundation of science, students lack the critical thinking and analytical skills
