Welcome to RSN Website

The Renaissance Society, as called Punarjagaran Samaj in Nepali, is our movement to integrate the disadvantaged people into the democratic mainstream through their empowerment with skills, wealth, income, institutions, justice, and the rejuvenation of heritage. Nepal’s manifold heritages like the nice people, Lord Buddha, Himalayas and abounding resources are far from enriching the majority of people. Ironically, most of the people live with less than one US$ daily and the status of women, children and ethnic people is more severe.
