It is also a hugely important cash crop in the Himalayan country. Every year, over 30.000 Nepali smallholder farmers produce about 400 tonnes of green Arabica coffee, grown at an altitude between 1000 and 1600 meters. A lot of the farmers use organic and eco-friendly practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Watch this short documentary on how we have created an inclusive coffee value chain in Nepal:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\n<div class=\"oembed-component\" data-module=\"oembed\" data-source=\"consent_embed_youtube\" data-type=\"video\" data-cookiebot=\"1\">\n\t<div class=\"oembed-component__content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"oembed-placeholder\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"oembed-placeholder__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>This content is available after accepting the cookies.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<button class=\"btn\n\tbtn--primary js-consent-button\"        type=\"video\"  >\n\t\n\t\t\t<span class=\"btn__text\">\n\t\t\tChange cookie-settings\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\n\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<template>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"oembed-video\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"oembed-video__thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/2C6_zMcQI1o\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\t\t<div class=\"oembed-video__content\">\n\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"An inclusive coffee value chain in Nepal | Cordaid\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2C6_zMcQI1o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"oembed-video__play\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tPlay video\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/template>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Starting a new journey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sasmita Tamang is one of them.

Every family has planted hundreds of coffee saplings in their nursery fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Inclusive Coffee project supports 320 farmers, many of whom have a disability like Sasmita and Suman, in starting their own coffee farms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cordaid\/ICCO\u2019s coffee connection in Nepal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cordaid\u2019s (formerly ICCO Cooperation\u2019s) coffee connection in Nepal started in 2017, when we began implementing a two-and-half-year EU-funded project in six districts, called the Hamro coffee project. It supported farmers in enhancing the quality and quantity of their coffee cherries and improving their primary facilities, and traders in strengthening domestic and international market linkages. Employing more youth in Nepal\u2019s coffee sector was also one of its aims. As a result, Cordaid\/ICCO Cooperation is now a well-established name among stakeholders in the Nepalese coffee sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inclusive coffee is transformative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on these learnings, in 2020, Cordaid became one of the implementing partners of the Inclusive Coffee project, which is part of FCDO\u2019s Disability Inclusive Development initiative. Inclusive Coffee has a transformative effect on the Nepalese coffee sector. People with disabilities and their organisations, and coffee value chain actors co-create solutions to make Nepali coffee more inclusive. From inclusion at the production level to primary processing, trade, and export.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;I know my consumers care about social impact, traceability, accountability, and fair business practices.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe bring in the technical coffee value chain expertise\u201d, explains Bidyanath Burtel, Cordaid\u2019s Country manager in Nepal, \u201cand the National Federation of the Disabled \u2013 Nepal brings the expertise from the disability field.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other partners include the Organization of Persons with Disabilities, the National Coffee Academy, and social coffee entrepreneurs in Nepal like Kedar Saptkota and Raj Kumar Banjara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The intersection of good business and social impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For these entrepreneurs, coffee means business, but they also care about the social impact of the coffee they produce and sell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is a growing market for Nepali coffee.
