    1 Culture Bhutan has a profound cultural diversity. With more than 80 percent of the country being Buddhists, the ways of the Buddhist practice has had a huge impact on the Bhutanese culture. The influence of Buddhism is very visible in the everyday life of the Bhutanese people. The country boasts of thousands of monasteries and the landscape is dotted with stupas, prayer wheels, prayer flags and many other insignias celebrating the Buddhist religion. The preservation of culture has always been accorded the highest of priorities and it was outlined as one of the four main pillars of the country’s unique development philosophy of Gross National Happiness. 2 © Ricardo Viana © Ricardo 3 is a religious festival that begins on the 10th day of the Tshechu Bhutanese calendar. During the festival, monks and laymen dances, folk dances, receive blessings and perform mask dances over a stretch socialize. Besides the religious dances and of three to five days in a temple or songs, atsaras are a major attraction during the monastery. The mask dances are tshechu.

  • Royal University of Bhutan, College of Natural Resources, Bhutan and Punakha, Lobesa
    Exchange Report from studies in Bhutan Jonathan Sigvant Royal University of Bhutan, College of Natural Resources, Bhutan and Punakha, Lobesa Jonathan Sigvant, [email protected] In any inquiries regarding studying in Bhutan, please feel free to contact me. Jonathansigvant.wordpress.com Exchange period Swedish autumn semester (HT 2016). I had completed three years at Uppsala University before going abroad to Bhutan. What subject area/s did you study during your exchange? Courses at College of Natural Resources: fulltime 1. Environmental Governance & Sustainable Land Management 2. Community based Natural Resources Management & Ecotourism 3. Global and Regional Climate Change 4. Global Health 5. Bhutanese Society and Culture Courses of interest for W: Yes both engineering courses in other colleges in Bhutan but also in College of Natural Resources which I studied. The College of Natural Resources Exchange Report from studies in Bhutan Jonathan Sigvant Studies My experience of College of Natural Resources was extraordinary in many ways. I did take five courses (fulltime) but comparing Natural Resources, Bhutan with engineering in Uppsala, is a bit unfair, rather SLU would be a proper match. I thought the quality of the material, and teachers was good, may not be as good as in Uppsala. Many of the teachers have been studying abroad, like India or England, and the assignments may differ from teacher to teacher. The language in school is always English, no matter which college you choose in Bhutan, the language skill in school was very good. My intention of studying in Bhutan was as much about the courses as of the culture and meeting the Bhutanese and learning about Gross National Happiness.

  • State Economy and Space in Bhutan in the Early Part of the 19Th Century
    STATE, ECONOMY AND SPACE IN BHUTAN IN THE EARLY PART OF THE 19TH CENTURY ADAM PAIN 1 his is an exploratory paper about the geography and history of space in Bhutan. It investigates space in relation to the reach, Tpower and influence of the state and how this has related to state formation processes and social relations. There are two related levels of analysis. At the more macro level we look at Bhutan as an entity within a wider historical and regional context. The second but related level of analysis considers aspects of the emerging state system in Bhutan and its relations to its people. It is from the field that we start. In 1999 – 2000 a study of rural livelihoods2 in different parts of Bhutan was undertaken in order to gain a better understanding of the nature of rural change over the last thirty years. The study was carried out in seven different locations3 in order to capture regional variability and investigated how different households in each location had constructed their lives and how this was influenced by both their historical and geographical context. Each village had specific characteristics that framed it in relation to its immediate and the outer world Standing in three of these villages today one cannot but be struck by their location in the presence of significant historical emblems of dimensions of the Bhutanese state4, all of which are highly visible. Khangkhu in Paro lies beneath the imposing presence of Rinpung Dzong, which dates back to 1646. In Phobjikha one’s attention is inevitably drawn to Gantey Gompa on its knoll above the valley, a monastic establishment founded by Pema Trinley, grandson of Pema Lingpa in the 16th century.
