Spotlight: Better Brick Nepal (BBN)

Utilizing the local expertise of a Nepalese coalition, the Brick Clean Group Nepal (BCN), GFI and BCN jointly developed the “Better Brick Nepal” Program.

The BBN Program is establishing a market-based incentive system for kiln owners to create decent working conditions by linking them to buyers interested in purchasing socially responsible bricks.

GFI signs a tripartite agreement with the Nepal Social Welfare Council and BCN. December 2014.


GFI builds and supports multi-stakeholder partnerships that are collectively working toward creating a “better brick” for Nepal.
