As part of capacity building, NSET-Baliyo Ghar - Team Dolakha has accomplished Seventh and Eighth Mason Training simultaneously dated on 16th June 2016. Seventh mason training has been completed in Babare VDC and Eighth at Katakuti VDC of Dolakha.
64 more masons are certified with 7 Days Mason Training for Earthquake Resistant Building in Rural. Now the total trained mason has reached 237 in Dolakha District. The Masons were trained to enhance the different techniques for earthquake resistant stone-mud and timber buildings in rural areas which will finally assist in earthquake resistant building construction in reconstruction work.
All the participants acknowledged the Baliyo Ghar team where one of the participants at Katakuti, Balram Karki shared, “This training facilitated a lot to enhance our construction skills for the construction of earthquake resistant building, as we did a lot of exercises on the model and got opportunity to enhance existing skill.” Mr.Lal Bahadur Thami, a participant at Babare's Training shared, "Training helped a lot to enhance our technical skills in building earthquake resistant housings in rural areas.”
The training course was jointly organized by Department of Building Construction and Urban Development (DUDBC), Division Office, Dolakha and NSET-BaliyoGhar in collaboration with Katakuti VDC and with funding support from USAID.
