After the Green-E training was completed in Portugal, the participants of the training conducted training programs to youths back in Nepal. Campaign for Change-Nepal (CCN) realised the people needed some motivation to enter to the green entrepreneurship, their desire to enter into green programs. Bagmati River, the holy river starts from the mountains of the Kathmandu Valley, runs through the Kathmandu and Patan and mixes to the other rivers in the South-East Nepal finally flowing towards the Indian Ocean. Bagmati River and its tributaries are the disposal a site of untreated sewages produced inside the Kathmandu Valley and is highly polluted. The area of Subidanagar and Shankamul from the Bagmati flows was handed to the local community, CCN collaborated with the local community of that area to plant the trees alongside the river and maintain the greenery in the riverside.
