Nepal: flood emergency

The toll of the flood that struck Nepal on 26 August 2026 is devastating: 1,454 people dead, nearly 5,804 missing, 7,570 homes destroyed and 32,936 people affected by one of the worst climate disasters of the decade.

ASIA has been working in Rasuwa since 2015, when an earthquake devastated the entire district. We know these communities, their stories and their struggles. Today, once again, we stand by their side.

Our team has been on the ground since day one. We are assisting displaced people in the region and in Kathmandu, and we are setting up a psychosocial support network and temporary safe spaces for the children whose lives have been upended by the emergency.
