Ear Care Nepal
About
Our mission is to prevent hearing loss and promote lifelong ear health across Nepal by delivering accessible, affordable, and high-quality ear care to underprivileged children, particularly those living in remote and hard-to-reach regions where services are virtually nonexistent.

Quick facts about Ear Care Nepal
- What is Ear Care Nepal?
- Ear Care Nepal is a education nonprofit organization based in Lalitpur, Nepal. Our mission is to prevent hearing loss and promote lifelong ear health across Nepal by delivering accessible, affordable, and high-quality ear care to underprivileged children, particularly those living in remote and hard-to-reach regions where services are virtually nonexistent. Globally, more than 430 million people live with disabling hearing loss, but the burden in Nepal is disproportionately high. An estimated 15.4% of the Nepali population experiences hearing impairment one of the highest rates in Asia. What makes this crisis especially urgent is that the majority of hearing loss in Nepal is preventable. Conditions such as chronic ear infections, and harmful traditional practices continue to cause irreversible damage simply due to lack of awareness, early detection, and access to care. In children, untreated ear disease leads not only to hearing loss, but to delayed speech and language development, poor academic performance, social exclusion, and lifelong limitations on opportunity. Ear Care Nepal (ECN) was founded in 2013 in response to this urgent and avoidable public health crisis. Established by a dedicated group of ENT surgeons and philanthropists, ECN was created with a clear purpose: to stop preventable deafness before it limits a child's ability to learn, communicate, and thrive. Our work is guided by the belief that hearing is fundamental to education, dignity, and social inclusion, and that no child should be held back by a condition that can be prevented or treated. Our mission is implemented through a comprehensive, evidence-based, and child-centered approach. At its core, it is Nepal's first and only purely school-based ear health program, focused on early detection, treatment, and prevention. By bringing services directly into community schools, we reach children at the most critical stage of development before hearing problems become permanent barriers. Through school screening programs, we identify ear diseases early, provide conservative medic
