LinkedIn profile

Sakar grew up in a water-scarce region of Nepal, which inspired his mission to improve community-based water systems. Now working on groundwater recharge and sanitation improvement projects, he promotes science-policy-community integration to protect vital water ecosystems.

Growing up in a community affected by water scarcity, Sakar witnessed firsthand how limited access to clean water shaped daily life. That early experience sparked his passion for sustainable water management and continues to guide his work today.

He is currently working with Clean Development Consult, where he is involved in a groundwater recharge project focused on reviving critical spring sources, as well as a municipal-wide sanitation improvement project aimed at enhancing inclusive and long-lasting water and sanitation services.

His work brings together engineering, nature-based solutions, and community empowerment. Sakar firmly believes that sustainable solutions emerge when science, policy, and local voices come together—and he strives to make that connection in every project he undertakes.
