DCN is a youth-led nonprofit dedicated to empowering every young Nepali with the digital skills, safety knowledge, and community connections they need to thrive.
Nepal is a nation of remarkable young people — creative, hardworking, and ambitious. Yet access to quality digital education remains deeply unequal. Urban youth in Kathmandu have opportunities that their peers in Humla or Darchula simply don't.
DCN was founded in 2023 by a group of young Nepali technologists and educators who believed that digital literacy is not a luxury — it's a fundamental right in the 21st century.
We build free, accessible, culturally relevant programmes that meet young Nepalis where they are — in all seven provinces, in Nepali and English, online and offline.
