The Internationalist Students' Front at GW is proud to announce our first major event of the semester, The New Nepal!
We are bringing this event to campus for a couple reasons. Over the past two decades, Nepal has undergone a major political transformation. This will be a historic opportunity to hear exciting new developments in the country and region, as Nepal transforms from a feudal monarchy to a rapidly developing republic.
A country that is landlocked between two major superpowers India and China, Nepal is a country whose own voice is seldom heard. We will be joined by high-ranking Nepalese statesmen to discuss developments in the country and their first-hand experiences with the challenges and success they've faced in an ever-changing landscape.
The speakers for the day will be:
- Brian Becker, National Director of the ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism)
- Hiranya L. Shrestha, Scholar & former Nepalese Ambassador to Russia
- Chandra P. Mainali, Incumbent General Secretary of Government
- The speakers' presentation will be followed by an audience question and answer segment.
