NGOs in Nepal

Collected by: Cornell University Library

Archived since: Oct, 2018

Description:

Throughout recorded history, Nepal has nestled between the giant cultural formations of India to the south and China/Tibet to the north. With the globalization of modern times, international interests and concerns draw Nepal into contact with more distant corners of the world. There are now a multitude of non-governmental organizations at work in Nepal, many headquartered in the Kathmandu Valley. Some are international NGOs and some are purely Nepali, some are long running and some are startups. All of the websites archived here are NGO self-presentations of their aspirations and their achievements on various fronts—humanitarian, environmental, economic, political, religious, and more.

Title: Nepal Eco Club

URL: https://nepalecoclub.org/

Description: Organization founded in 2012 "We Nepalese people are known around the world for our bravery, pride, self respect and richness of Atithi Devo Bhava culture (guests are equal to God). Our country is globally renowned for the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest, our diverse cultures and spectacular natural beauty. In addition it’s the country of the eight thousanders, habitat of different deities, birthplace of Lord Buddha and the land of 118 ecosystems. As a result of Nepal’s popularity it has become one of the most attractive destinations for tourists, because of this there has been both negative and positive impacts on this country’s development. Therefore we feel that it is imperative that we create and ensure our own identity in the world through our art, culture, humanitarian works and encouraging our people to practice Eco friendly methods so that we can maintain a healthy, natural and sustainable environment. To achieve this we cannot solely depend on the individual, the tourism industry or government efforts, therefore to spread awareness of how we can develop tourism, our art culture and maintain a healthy, unpolluted environment Nepal Eco Club aims to educate our society through national and international workshops, seminars and interactive programs."--taken from website 2024.04.22
