CDC: summary of the Rapcha project
Summary of the Rapcha project
Five earthquake-resistant houses have been built in the village of Rapcha in Nepal, in two phases (winter 2020 and winter 2021), on budget and on schedule, despite the uncertainties and constraints associated with the health crisis.
A sixth house, initially intended for a family that has since benefited from local aid, was not built, but as a replacement, the mayor wisely proposed supporting the village’s agricultural development for the benefit of the entire community. The construction of a new water mill to process local cereals thus helped to reinforce the economic objective of this project.
Projects in Rapcha, March 2021
After the Tihar festival (15-17 November), the now highly qualified team of masons and carpenters went back to work to build the 2 houses for the families of Ramesh Rai and Satra Bahadur Rai.
Our friends Jase and Yadav were able to organise the site, supervise the work and draw up a comprehensive report.
Anuvam letter, january 2022
On the threshold of 2022, I’d like to take this opportunity, along with all the members of the Board, to wish you all the best for the future, so that you can enjoy everything that’s close to your hearts. We hope that solidarity and friendship will be the dominant values of this new year (it is not forbidden to dream).
In a context where serenity is far from being the order of the day, let’s remain positive and motivated for all our actions that put exchanges between human beings at the forefront.

The association of employees of the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations (CDC Développement solidaire) provides significant support to ANUVAM for the continuation of its earthquake-resistant construction projects.
Since the 2019 AGM, 3 houses have been built, with the support of CDCDéveloppement solidaire (Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations). CDC supported us on the “sustainable local economy” aspect.
The interim report on the first phase of earthquake-resistant houses has been accepted by the CDC développement solidaire. The photos of the work sites (masons and carpenters) have been included in the brochure for the CDC’s 2019 activity report (page 7).
Letter from ANUVAM – october 2020
General Meeting on 3 and 4 October 2020 in Brousse (63)
General information on Nepal and Rapcha
Due to the health crisis, the trips scheduled for 2020 have been cancelled. This has deprived the association of elements of observation, understanding or verification of this field mission that could have informed our decisions.
There is a climate of uncertainty in Nepal, which has repercussions on development and sponsorship policies. Economic and social life is very disrupted. The political situation is currently stable.
The pandemic has revealed Nepal’s dependence on India, particularly in terms of agriculture. There is a growing desire to revitalise local agriculture.
–Climate crisis: very heavy monsoon, resulting in landslides and crop damage.
Photos of Nepal – Jean Claude Raimbault
The photos will be exhibited at the Annual General Meeting on 3 and 4 October in Brousse, and sales will go to the ANUVAM Association, of which Jean Claude Raimbault is Secretary General.
They are available in various formats as rigid prints (Dibond process).
