Partners are the main implementers or Helvetas' programmes. Thus, partners are expected to take the lead in documenting and publishing their work, in particular at local and national level.

Programmes of Helvetas Nepal prepare various visual materials (video, flip-chart, manuals, etc.) for capacity building and as working material for partner organizations. These materials are mostly in Nepali and can be requested from the respective programme.

Main experiences and learning of Helvetas programmes are summarized in reports, papers and evaluation studies. These documents will gradually be prepared in electronic formats and uploaded onto the web-page.

Helvetas Nepal has initiated the preparation of "Learning Series" which intent to summarize long-term experiences on topics of special interest.
