As we prepare for A Sonic Adventure: Nepal with our partners in adventure The Tribe, we want to introduce you to some of the people at the heart of the work we’re travelling to support.
Our work in Nepal is built on long-term relationships, local knowledge and a shared belief that girls should have the confidence, support and opportunities to shape their own futures.
At the heart of this are the people who have spent years building relationships, developing programmes and creating opportunities alongside girls and young people in their communities.
Meet Quintin, Rejina and Deepak.
Meet Quintin
Quintin is the founder of KANALLAN and has spent more than a decade developing humanitarian projects in Nepal.
Working closely with local leaders and communities, he has helped thousands of girls and young women access education, healthcare, confidence and opportunity — and has played a central role in bringing the vision for the Girls’ Learning & Empowerment Centre to life.
His experience, relationships and understanding of the communities he works alongside have helped shape the project we’re proud to be supporting through A Sonic Adventure.
Meet Rejina
Rejina Gharti Magar’s journey is a brilliant example of what can happen when young people are given opportunities not only to participate, but to lead.
Rejina began as a participant in the Girls’ Empowerment Programme before becoming a Graduate Peer Educator, mentor, youth leader and co-designer of opportunities for other girls.
With more than nine years’ experience in child rights, girls’ empowerment, inclusive education and social development, she has inspired and empowered thousands of people while helping create meaningful spaces for young people to lead, learn and thrive.
Today, she is using her own experience to help other girls find their voices, recognise their potential and become leaders within their own communities.
Meet Deepak
Deepak is the initiator of the Girls’ Empowerment Programme and a passionate child-rights advocate with more than 15 years’ experience.
His approach places children and young people at the centre of the work, creating inclusive programmes shaped with them, rather than simply for them.
By creating spaces where young people’s voices are heard and valued, his work helps ensure that they aren’t simply recipients of programmes, but active participants in shaping the opportunities available to them.
Local knowledge. Long-term partnerships. Shared purpose.
When our team and trekkers travel to Nepal for A Sonic Adventure from 16–29 November 2026, we aren’t arriving with the answers, we’re joining people who have been doing this work for years.
Through Sonic Adventure Nepal, our community is raising funds to support the next chapter of this locally led work, including the vision for a dedicated Girls’ Learning & Empowerment Centre in Devchuli.
It’s an opportunity to bring together music, adventure and fundraising while putting the knowledge and voices of the people closest to the work at the centre of the story.
And over the coming weeks, we’ll be introducing you to more of the people making Sonic Adventure Nepal possible, both those joining us on the journey and those we’ll be meeting when we arrive.
EVERY GIRL SHOULD.
EVERY GIRL CAN.
EVERY GIRL WILL.Find out more about A Sonic Adventure: Nepal →
