About RSN
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. The Millennium Development Goals (MDG) and the Government’s Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) call for an active role of the civil society to improve this situation. In this process, a team of multidisciplinary experts founded the Renaissance Society Nepal (RSN) in 1994 as a non-governmental organization (NGO). [See Organogram of RSN]
RSN has addressed the issues of deprived communities, gender empowerment, regional disparities, equitable distribution of resources, conflict management and peace building. It also raised the livelihood status of over 50,000 disadvantaged people like women, children and ethnic communities in remote areas, and has empowered them to build institutions.
The Human Resources of RSN include four categories, namely, the Board of Directors, Advisors, Experts and Volunteers.
The board members are a multi-disciplinary team. RSN has a board of directors of seven experts. These are Mr. Y B Thapa, Ms Urmila Aryal, Dr. Trilaakoya Nath Shrestha, Dr. Purushottam Shrestha, Dr. Vijaya Kumar Singh, Mr. Purna Bahadur Chemjong, and Mr. Madan Bahadur Thapa. The Board Members b curriculum-vitiate is attached.
The CV of Advisors, Experts and volunteers will be uploaded later.
