Young Scientist Prabidhi Adhikari
In Nepal’s rapidly evolving digital transformation journey, a new generation of rising tech minds is stepping up to lead. Breaking traditional barriers and establishing a new benchmark for young girls in tech, Young Scientist Prabidhi Adhikari has officially joined the prestigious Young Scientist Program.
This internationally recognized platform is designed to nurture children’s curiosity, transform their raw creativity into practical logic, and empower them to solve real-world problems through advanced computing.
By stepping into this competitive arena, Prabidhi is not only expanding her own horizon but also setting a powerful precedent for other young Nepalese girls aspiring to code and build technology. The program equips students with critical future-ready technical skills, coding fluency, game development logic, and collaborative problem-solving capabilities.
A Strong Foundation: Mentorship and Family Guidance
Behind the rise of any young prodigy lies a rock-solid foundation of familial support and guidance. Prabidhi’s journey is deeply rooted in an environment shaped by some of Nepal’s most prominent IT and cybersecurity pioneers:
Father (Chiranjibi Adhikari): Acting President of the CAN Federation (Computer Association of Nepal Federation), a highly respected cybersecurity expert in Nepal, and the Founder/CEO of One Cover Private Limited.

Mother: The Founder and President of ICT Frame Magazine (ictframe.com), Nepal’s leading bilingual technology publication.
Growing up at the intersection of cybersecurity advocacy and digital media, Prabidhi was naturally inspired to look beyond consuming technology and start creating it.
Global Standards: The Collaboration of Dursikchya and STEM.org
To thrive in the global digital landscape, talent requires world-class training. Prabidhi’s parents highly praised the role of Dursikchya Education Network in bringing global-standard technical education to Nepalese classrooms.
Through its strategic partnership with STEM.org, the oldest and most respected STEM research and credentialing organization in the United States, Dursikchya has introduced world-class pedagogics and andragogics (teaching and learning frameworks) to Nepal.
This partnership ensures that young minds do not just learn isolated technical skills but adopt structured, analytical thinking.
