The heart behind this initiative was found on the goal to inspire and motivate the country and its youths that solutions to their community's problems are found within themselves and not from the outside.

The power of innovation has vast potentials to unlock new social and economic opportunities and lead to sustainable development.

  • Abstract Book, First National Conference on Zoology 2020
    First National Conference on Zoology Biodiversity in a Changing World 28-30 November 2020 Abstracts Organized By Supported By: Foreword It is our pleasure to welcome you to the First National Conference on Zoology: Biodiversity in a Changing World on November 28–30, 2020 on a virtual platform. This conference is organized by the Central Department of Zoology and its Alumni on the occasion of the 55th Anniversary of the Department. This conference is supported by the IUCN Nepal, National Trust for Nature Conservation, WWF Nepal and Zoological Society of London Nepal office. The Central Department of Zoology envisioned three important strategies; teaching, research and extension of its strategic plan 2019 – 2023. The First National Conference is one of the most important extension activities of the Department in collaboration with leading conservation organizations of the country. We believe extension activities including national conference will help to mainstream zoology and make priority agenda of the government for research, faunal conservation, national development and employment. The main theme of the conference is “Biodiversity in a Changing World”, which is of utmost importance given global changes that species, ecosystem processes, landscapes and also people currently have to face together. Excessive exploitation of biological resources as well as global changes and the degradation of the natural environment have large-scale effects, some of which directly lead to the extinction of species and impacts on the health of people. The Conference provides us with the opportunity to meet, connect and learn from each other, share latest research results, and eventually envisage feasible means of conciliating human development and protect health of ecosystem and people with biodiversity conservation.

    TERMS OF REFERENCE TERMS OF REFERENCE: A COMPANY TO ORGANIZE THREE CRICKET MATCHES TO PROMOTE NUTRITION 1. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION: Multi-sector Nutrition Plan (MSNP) of Nepal was approved by the Council of Ministers of the Government of Nepal on June 14, 2012 with the overall aim to improve maternal and child nutrition, which will result in the reduction of maternal, infant and young child (MIYC) under nutrition, by reducing the chronic energy deficiency (body mass index (BMI) less than 18.5) and reducing the childhood stunting by one third of the 2011 level by the end of 2017. It calls for a multisector collaborative effort, led by the National Planning Commission (NPC) and executed by the sector ministries (line agencies) that are responsible for nutrition specific and nutrition sensitive interventions. Execution of MSNP in districts was planned in a phase-wise manner: the first six districts were identified for immediate intervention involving the district line agencies in the fiscal year (FY) 2013/14. In the second phase, ten more districts were added for the further MSNP programme acceleration in FY 2015/16. Similarly, in the third phase, MSNP activities were rolled out to other 12 districts in FY 2016/17 with a total of 28 districts implemented MSNP out of the 75 districts in Nepal. Now the number of local bodies implementing the MSNP is 308. In line with goal and objectives of MSNP, UNICEF signed an agreement with the European Union to implement 'Partnership for Improved Nutrition in Nepal: Poshanka Lagi Hatemalo' to improve nutrition status of women and children in Nepal.
