UPAYA

Upaya translates to "solution" in Nepali. Our mission is foster community development, partner with indigenous tribes, share insights into their traditions, and assist them in preserving their culture and heritage in today's world.

Our Vision

UPAYA was born out of a vision I had during my conversations with native tribes in Asia. I observed the detrimental effects of corruption on these people, how tourism only benefited the wealthy, and how the tribes were left in poverty. Our vision is to serve as a bridge for indigenous tribes from around the globe by providing them a platform to share their handicrafts with people worldwide. This way, we can preserve their heritage and keep their culture alive. This is the vision that drives us every day.
