The first thing you think about is the soaring snow-capped mountain peaks, like Everest<\/a>, Annapurna I<\/a> and Lhotse. Then you consider those landscapes of rhododendron forests, bamboo thickets, thundering white-water rapids, and grassy tundras.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And then you probably think about all those hiking trails, with easy circuits to suit casual strollers and challenging week-long scrambles for hard-core adventurers. It\u2019s really no surprise that tourism is the largest industry in Nepal<\/a>, the small landlocked country nestled between India and Tibet.<\/p>\n

Of the more than one million international travellers visiting Nepal each year, around 80,000 of them are drawn to Nepal\u2019s mountain ranges. That\u2019s a lot of trekkers making their way up, down and around Nepal\u2019s hundreds of trails.<\/p>\n

The majority of those trekkers need porters. It\u2019s hard enough for someone who\u2019s not Nepalese to even breathe at altitude, let alone haul backpacks full of clothing, water, medical supplies, sleeping bags and more. Hence the need for someone to help carry the load. But along with carrying gear, porters also take on the role of guide, botanist, first-aid officer, cook and friend.<\/p>\n

But as the most important group of people in the trekking industry, porters tend to be treated the worst.<\/p>\n

While the standard weight allowance for porters, set by the Nepalese Government, is 35 kgs (77 lbs), it’s not an enforced restriction; most of Nepal\u2019s more reputable trekking companies do<\/em> restrict client trek loads to around 10 kgs per trekker (around 22 lbs), although the more dubious trekking agents expect porters to carry a lot more.<\/p>\n

Bhalakaji started working as a porter in 1981.<\/p><\/div>\n

The most common way to abuse a porter is to get them to carry too much and pay them too little. Intrepid Travel pay their porters and leaders as soon as they finish a trip, however some trekking companies in Nepal might not pay until five or six months after a job. Porters and guides often have to chase money, and they\u2019re bound to those companies until they\u2019re paid. Nepal doesn\u2019t have a welfare system, so people have to do what they can to make money \u2013 kicking up a fuss about late payments, heavy bags or long hours will generally be met with directions to the door.<\/p>\n

This is a broken part of Nepal\u2019s tourism industry. One that the Kathmandu Environmental Education Project \u2013 also known as KEEP \u2013 is trying to fix.<\/p>\n

\u201cKEEP was established 27 years ago, with the aim of looking after porter welfare,\u201d Ian Wall, KEEP\u2019s CEO explains. \u201cBack then, a porter was \u2018just\u2019 a porter. They did it to make money, and they were usually unknowingly taken advantage of. They couldn\u2019t stay in the lodges, so they\u2019d sleep outside, because the lodge owners felt they could make more money letting foreigners use the space that the porters might occupy. They were getting sick. Many of them were dying. KEEP was set up to help the porters look after themselves. We started educating trekking companies that they need their porters to be healthy, and know their welfare rights.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"A

KEEP CEO Ian Wall.<\/p><\/div>\n

Over the years, KEEP has developed several initiatives for porters and guides. But the one that\u2019s really changing lives is their Porter Welfare Program. The sessions \u2013 run during the trekking off season so no one has to worry about missing work and forgoing much-needed income \u2013 see porters from across the country coming together in KEEP\u2019s head office in Kathmandu to learn about their rights. These sessions are also run in rural communities outside Kathmandu for porters who can\u2019t afford to come to the city. They receive education on mountain safety, first aid, hygiene, ecotourism, map reading and communication skills.<\/p>\n

After porters and guides have completed this training, they can go back to the companies they\u2019re working for and word up other porters and guides; Ian refers to it as a trickle-down approach to knowledge. KEEP call it Train the Trainers.<\/p>\n

One of the best things about Train the Trainers? It\u2019s free. Funding comes from donors, including Intrepid Travel\u2019s not-for-profit arm, The Intrepid Foundation<\/a>. The Intrepid Foundation chose KEEP as one of its many projects to provide trekking professionals with the skills and knowledge to keep them \u2013 and their clients \u2013 safe, and contribute to the sustainability of their local community. It also helps raise people\u2019s self-esteem and feelings of worth.<\/p>\n

Tara Dattjossi, KEEP\u2018s manager.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cThe funding we receive from The Intrepid Foundation is so important, not only for us at KEEP, but for the tourism industry in Nepal in general. Other companies see what we\u2019re doing and send their porters and guides to us for training,\u201d says Tara Dattjossi, KEEP\u2019s Manager, who has been with the organisation for 19 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany porters in Nepal don\u2019t have much education or equipment. When they\u2019re out trekking, they often don\u2019t sleep in proper areas, or know how to communicate. Very few of them know how to speak any English. Most of them come from very poor families. We see some porters carrying 100 kgs (200 lbs). Here at KEEP, we teach them not to take anything heavier than 20 kgs (44 lbs), which is 10 kgs (22 lbs) per client.\u201d<\/p>\n

The porters on Intrepid\u2019s Nepal trekking trips carry only 10 kgs (22 lbs) per trekker, along with a weight allowance for their personal belongings.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur main job is to teach porters what their welfare rights are, so they feel empowered to take responsibility. They are the backbone of the tourism industry here. How can anyone expect to run treks without them?\u201d Tara explains.<\/p>\n

Porters learning first aid, mountain safety and how to read maps.<\/p><\/div>\n

Dolamgai was a porter for five years, and now works as a trekking guide. He used to carry huge bags in Nepal\u2019s Annapurna and Lantang regions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have done KEEP training sessions six times. I\u2019ve learnt how to read maps, how to talk to clients and how to communicate with travellers. When I first started training, my English was very bad. I found pronunciation very difficult. I was scared to answer questions. I would run away if the teacher asked me anything! But slowly, I got more confidence. I feel very confident now, and my English has improved so much since being here!<\/p>\n

\u201cThese sessions are so important. If we know how to read maps properly, we can find easy and hard ways up the mountain. With first aid, we know that if people get sick, it\u2019s most likely to be mountain sickness (altitude sickness), and we know how to treat them. We know how to control bleeding if we need, and how to give oxygen to hikers if they\u2019re having trouble breathing.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter doing this training, I can pass on the skills I have learned to my assistant guides and the porters that I work with.\u201d<\/p>\n

More women are becoming porters in Nepal. Photo by Matt Cherubino.<\/p><\/div>\n

Around 10,000 porters have come through KEEP since they started operating in 1992, including more and more women. The program sees around five women sign up to the Porter Welfare Program each season. It\u2019s a slow start, but it\u2019s a positive change in a very male-dominated industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cKEEP inspires porters to look to their future, and think about becoming a guide,\u201d Tara says.\u00a0 \u201cThe knowledge is transferable and gives opportunities. I want all our porters to have a good education, and to improve equality. I want to make the tourism industry in Nepal as good as it is in Europe, the US or Canada.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see really positive changes in the porters who come out of the programs here. They have a really good knowledge of tourism by the end. We\u2019re helping them protect their jobs, and their bodies. By the time they finish the program, they know about health and safety, and they know what their rights are.\u201d<\/p>\n
