Nepal has 8 of the world’s 10 tallest mountains, including the highest mountain in the world – Mt Everest! Although undeniably beautiful, life in the Himalayas can be complicated by these enormous mountains. It can make it difficult to transport essential items such as food and medicine to some communities. Access to healthcare is a challenge in many remote regions of Nepal, as patients and healthcare workers have to walk for hours or even a full day along steep, winding tracks between the village and the nearest hospital.
How can drones help?
She Maps aims to bring much needed diversity and support to STEM. We do this by providing drone and geospatial programs to teachers and schools across the globe.
At She Maps we acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea, and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
