    SIR EDMUND HILLARY’S HIMALAYAN TRUST A FOREWORD FROM OUR PatrON Letter FROM THE ChairpersON This is an especially challenging year for the communities in Nepal where the Himalayan 2020 is the Year of Covid – or more correctly, the First Year of Covid as its Trust works. The COVID-19 pandemic put a stop to tourism in the Solukhumbu which consequences will be as profound in 2021 as they are this year. The population of has been such a vital source of income for communities. Yet, keeping the communities 100,000 in the District of Solukhumbu is dependent at a base level on agriculture, but safe from COVID-19 must be a top priority, knowing that it can strike down people of the tourism/trekking, and remittances, which have lifted households above subsistence all ages and is particularly dangerous for older people and those of all ages with health have collapsed because of Covid. Prior to the revolution of 1950, the Sherpas and vulnerabilities. The Nepalese Government announced that the autumn mountaineering other hill peoples of Solukhumbu had no schools or healthcare. Their migrant workers season could operate. While that brings income, it obviously also comes with risks. went no further than Darjeeling for road-building or carrying loads for Everest The Himalayan Trust launched an appeal for emergency medical supplies and personal expeditions via Tibet.

  • 'Modern' Medicine in the Mt Everest Region of Nepal
    Medical History, 2011, 55: 503–521 Medicines, Travellers and the Introduction and Spread of ‘Modern’ Medicine in the Mt Everest Region of Nepal SUSAN HEYDON* Abstract: The significant contribution of medicines in the introduc- tion and spread of ‘modern’ medicine has, with the exception of vacci- nation, been neglected in historical studies, yet medicines have been a significant factor in people’s experiences of sickness and in their use and non-use of health services. Although medicines are implicitly acknowledged in the literature as important in the provision of health- care, this article uses a case study of the Mt Everest region of Nepal during the second half of the twentieth century to argue that medicines have had an explicit and central role in the introduction and spread of modern medicine in this region. It also highlights the importance of travellers in the process. While this article focuses on biomedical pro- ducts, modern medicine, as elsewhere in the wider Himalayan region, continued to be practised within a changing but plural medical environ- ment. The first part of the article discusses medicines and travellers who, in the absence of biomedical services, were the main source of medicines prior to the mid-1960s, while the second part considers medicines and Khunde Hospital, which was built in 1966 by the area’s most famous overseas traveller and became not only the area’s main provider of modern health services but also the main source of medicines. Keywords: Medicines; ‘Modern’ Medicine; Medical Pluralism; Travellers; Nepal; Sherpas; Sir Edmund Hillary; Khunde Hospital Introduction ‘This assistant could be taught the uses of the appropriate pills for the treatment of the major fevers, dysentery and high altitude headaches.

  • Helen Clark As Our Patron
    SIR EDMUND HILLARY’S HIMALAYAN TRUST 2 Photo: Blair Millar The Himalayan Trust’s work in Nepal continues to bring important changes and I hope you enjoy reading in this Annual Review 2018 about the impact of our rebuild, education, health and water programmes in the Solukhumbu. It is your ongoing support that makes all this work possible. I would like to congratulate our partners Himalayan Trust Nepal, Action for Nepal and REED-Nepal on their achievements this year. It is thanks to their local expertise, knowledge and experience that we are able to increase our impact and ensure long-term, sustainable change in Nepal. Earlier this year, after five years of outstanding achievements, our General Manager Prue Smith moved on. Her tenure was dramatically impacted by the 2015 earthquakes in Nepal, which reduced so many schools to heaps of rubble. Prue rode the wave of generous giving by New Zealanders to help Nepal recover. She then went on to manage the largest infrastructure programme undertaken by the Himalayan Trust, leaving the Solukhumbu with 150 classrooms that are well-designed and earthquake-resistant. It is our pleasure to welcome John Loof as our new General Manager. John has been in the not-for-profit sector for 18 years and brings considerable experience from roles at Cancer Society Auckland and the SPCA. We are grateful to those who challenged themselves to raise funds for the Himalayan Trust this year, including the Summit Challenge participants and our trekkers. I hope you feel a great sense of achievement in the work the Himalayan Trust is undertaking in Nepal thanks to you.

  • Michael Gill with Lynley Cook
    HIMALAYAN HOSPITALS SIR EDMUND HILLARy’S EVEREST LEGACY Michael Gill with Lynley Cook COVER PAINTING This painting was commissioned from the renowned Sherpa artist Kapa Kalden in 1968. Khunde village and its new hospital occupy the top half with Mount Everest behind. Two black Hillary pipelines snake their way down from the spring on the slopes of the sacred mountain Khumbila, and John and Di McKinnon, first of the volunteers, can be seen (though not identified) in front of the hospital. In the lower half of the painting is Khumjung village with its Hillary school built in 1961. The season is spring as shown by the piles of leaf-toilet compost in the fields and the seed potatoes being tossed from a basket into newly-hoed furrows. A stone-mason shapes rocks between the two Buddhist chortens on the left. Khumjung monastery, amidst its grove of sacred junipers, is partly shown on the right, and attached to the houses of the wealthier families can be seen separate rooms housing private shrines beside tall prayer flags. The Hillary buildings have metal roofs rather than the grey wooden shingles of traditional houses.

Himalayan glaciers feed ten major Asian rivers, and 1.3 billion people in southern and southeast Asia reside in those river basins (Eriksson, et al. 2009:1). Global warming is melting these glaciers at a rapid rate, with retreat ranging from 10 to 60 meters per year on average, and many smaller glaciers already disappearing (Mool, Bajracharya and Shrestha 2008:1).

  • Tourism and Development in Nepal Stan Stevens
    Tourism and Development in Nepal Stan Stevens Introduction The great wall of mountains that marks the frontier between South and Central Asia has often presented through the centuries a major barrier to travel, restricting the movement of people, goods, and ideas to a few key routes that are at best only seasonally practicable. But, although the ruggedness of its landscapes presented often fonrnidable difficulties of passage, this arc of the Himalaya, Karakorum, and Hindu Kush ranges has for millennia been traversed by armies and refugees, traders and migrants, emissaries and pilgrims. Across the high passes have marched Greek armies under Alexander, Mongol hordes under Genghiz Khan and Tamerlane, British forces mov- ing on Lhasa, and Chinese armies invading Nepal and India. Indian merchants carrying goods and Buddhism to the Sinkiang oases and beyond to China have found their way through the peaks, as have Silk Road caravans transporting Chinese goods west as early as the days of the Roman Empire. Marco Polo passed this way, and Hin- dus on pilgrimage to Mount Kailas in Tibet have continued to do so for untold centuries, as have Tibetans and Chinese on pilgrimage to India. The Tibetans fleeing with the Dalai LIama to India in 1959 and the Afghanis flee- ing the Russians in 1980-81 are the most recent in a series of population movements that goes back to long before the Aryans swept across the Hindu Kush in the second millennium B.C. These mountains, perhaps more than any of the other great mountain ranges ofthe world, have been the scene of an exceedingly rich epic of human history, and that history has, to an important extent, been a tale of travelers.
