Global Peace Foundation Nepal

Global Peace Foundation Nepal The Global Peace Foundation Nepal is non-sectarian, non-partisan, nonprofit organization. GPF Nepal has been implementing three signature programs.

Global Peace Foundation Nepal (GPF) is a non-religious, non-political, social, non-governmental Organization dedicated to peace, prosperity, and sustainable development with a vision "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (We all belong to One Human Family)." Program 1: Empowering Youth, Women and Families

We believe that empowering the youth, women and families should come hand in hand to promote peace, as fami

ly is the primary means of instilling values and promotes an education culture that fosters character and creativity. This program guides women and youth as individuals to become ethical global citizens and become the catalyst for transformation in their families and to the communities and cultivate the conditions to raise strong, healthy individuals and families for peacebuilding. Program 2: Environmental Conservation

GPF Nepal established its flagship project, the River of Peace Campaign (RoPC), with the goal of building a network of like-minded individuals and organizations focused on increasing public awareness of environmental issues, educating the public on environmental conservation methods, and encouraging the public to contribute to environmental conservation. Program 3: Community Service

We believe that the higher purpose of individuals is to live for the greater good. In every program we organize, we make sure service is integrated to build comprehensive, collaborative models of sustainable community and national development that enable all to achieve spiritual and material well-being.

🌱 From Learning to Action: GPLP Fellows in Practice

GPLP is about more than learning—it is about putting learning into action. 🤝✨
After weeks of capacity building in leadership, values, teamwork, and facilitation, our fellows are now stepping forward to practice what they have learned and create learning opportunities for others.

👏 Congratulations to Ujjwal Basnet and Saragya Gyawali for taking the lead and facilitating sessions for their fellow peacebuilders!

🗣️ Ujjwal facilitated a session on alcohol abuse, exploring its causes and its impact on individuals, families, and society. He encouraged fellow peacebuilders to reflect on how they can contribute to prevention and positive change.

🌱 Saragya facilitated a session on Life Cycle Assessment, helping fellows understand the environmental impact of our choices—from raw material extraction to production, distribution, use, and disposal—and encouraging them to think about practical actions for a more sustainable future.

💡 What made these sessions meaningful was that they went beyond sharing knowledge. Both fellows turned learning into a call to action, challenging their peers to take responsibility and become part of the solution.

🌍 This is experiential learning in action—learning, practicing, leading, and inspiring others to act. Through these experiences, our fellows are not only building skills but also strengthening the character and values needed to live for the greater good.

👏 Congratulations, Ujjwal and Saragya! Keep learning, keep leading, and keep inspiring action.

🌱 From Learning to Leading: Building Facilitation Skills

Global Peacebuilders Leadership Program (GPLP) is not only about upskilling young people with theories—experiential learning is a must! 🤝✨ It is about building values, character, and practical leadership by creating opportunities for young peacebuilders to learn, practice, reflect, and grow.

🌍 Through the Global Peace Values Framework—Living for the Greater Good, Dream Big, Ownership, and Teamwork—fellows are encouraged not only to understand these values but to practice them in real situations, such as facilitation.

🎤 In our recent Facilitation Skills Training, fellows learned how to design and deliver engaging sessions, create inclusive learning spaces, listen actively, encourage participation, asking powerful questions, and work with diverse perspectives.

👐 But the real learning begins beyond the training room. Fellows will now facilitate sessions for others, taking ownership of the learning process, working as a team, serving the needs of others, and practicing the values they seek to inspire in others.

💡 This is how character is developed—not simply by learning what is right, but by repeatedly practicing it until it becomes part of who we are.

✨ At GPLP, we believe young people become peacebuilders not only through what they know, but through what they practice, embody, and contribute.

🌱 Raising Leaders Who Lead with Character and Purpose

Why does moral and innovative leadership matter? Because the future depends not only on what young people know or create, but on who they become and how they choose to use their talents to serve others.

🤝 In collaboration with Kathmandu Model College, Global Peace Foundation Nepal organized a two-day Moral and Innovative Leadership Workshop for 24 newly admitted first-year Psychology students. The workshop created a space for young people to reflect on the meaning of true leadership and explore how values can guide them to become responsible and purposeful leaders.

💡 Through interactive activities, reflection, and dialogue, participants explored the Global Peace Values Framework:

🌍 Living for the Greater Good – choosing to use their abilities to create positive impact beyond themselves.
🌟 Dream Big – imagining a better future and having the courage to pursue it.
🙌 Ownership – taking responsibility for their choices, actions, and commitments.
🤝 Teamwork – listening to, respecting, and working with others toward a shared purpose.

💬 One participant shared:
“The greatest quality of a good leader is working for the greater good. I will remain committed to incorporating moral values into my daily life.”

✨ This reflection reminds us that leadership is not simply about holding a position or directing others. True leadership begins with character—the courage to do what is right, the humility to listen, the responsibility to act, and the commitment to serve.

🌏 Global Peace Foundation Nepal continues its mission to raise young people to become virtuous, responsible global citizens and leaders who can contribute meaningfully to their communities and build a more peaceful and harmonious world.

Because when young people lead with character and purpose, they don't just shape their own future—they help shape a better future for all. 🌍💙

🌿 Green Homes, Green Kathmandu: Growing Values, Inspiring Action 🌱

The Green Homes, Green Kathmandu project successfully concluded in Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) ward No. 5 with a shared commitment to building greener, healthier, and more sustainable communities.

Grounded in values of responsibility, stewardship, cooperation, dignity, and peaceful coexistence with nature, the program raised awareness and strengthened practical environmental conservation practices. Through training on personal hygiene, waste segregation, composting, rooftop farming, rainwater harvesting, and creative upcycling, participants turned knowledge into everyday action.

By engaging community members especially women, the program nurtured responsible citizenship and demonstrated that meaningful environmental change begins with individual choices and collective action. 🌏💚

During the closing remarks, Ms. Mina Singh, Ward Representative, appreciated Global Peace Foundation Nepal for bringing the initiative to Ward No. 5. She highlighted how the program has positively influenced participants’ daily lives, promoting better health, household waste management, sustainable food production, and opportunities for income generation. The creative transformation of plastic waste into useful products also reinforced an important message: what we see as waste can become a resource when guided by creativity and responsibility.

Together, we are nurturing communities where people care for one another, protect nature, and take responsibility for the future we share.

A heartfelt thank you to all participants, facilitators, partners, supporters and KMC ward No. 5 for making Green Homes, Green Kathmandu a meaningful journey toward a resilient, peaceful, and sustainable Nepal. 🌿🇳🇵

💡 Design Thinking: From Problems to Possibilities

The GPLP Fellows continued their learning journey with another hands-on working session on Design Thinking, facilitated by Pragya Karki. 🌱

🔍 Understanding the Process — Fellows explored the key steps of Design Thinking and how a human-centered approach can lead to meaningful solutions.

🌳 Going Beyond the Surface — Through root-cause analysis, they learned to look beyond symptoms and understand the deeper issues behind the challenges they seek to address.

💡 Values-Based Innovation — The session connected Design Thinking with a values-based approach, encouraging fellows to develop solutions grounded in empathy, responsibility, ownership, teamwork, and the greater good.

🤝 Learning by Doing — Fellows actively reflected, questioned, analyzed, and collaborated to apply the concepts to real-world challenges.

Design Thinking is not just about creating innovative solutions—it is about understanding people, identifying the real problem, and taking ownership to create solutions that serve the greater good. 🌍✨

A heartfelt thank you to our facilitator, Pragya Karki, and to Kathmandu Model College (KMC), our valued venue partner, for your generous support and contribution to making this event a success.

“Different Contexts, Common Aspirations.” 🇳🇵✨

As young people raise the flag of Nepal, they also raise their dreams, hopes, and aspirations for a better future.

Rukmani Katuwal, a 20-year-old third-year BA student at Padmakanya Multiple Campus, studying Psychology and Social Work, carries a deep desire to create meaningful change through the field of psychology. 🧠🌱

From a young age, she witnessed the emotional and psychological struggles faced by individuals within her family and extended family. These experiences inspired her dream of contributing to mental health support and helping others lead healthier and more hopeful lives.

Rukmani acknowledges that pursuing such a dream has not been easy. Yet, despite the challenges, her commitment to the field of psychology remains strong, and she continues to hold on to her dream with determination and hope. 💙🤝

This International Youth Day, we celebrate young people like Rukmani who transform personal experiences into a purpose for service and continue striving to make a positive difference in their communities and in Nepal.

“Different Contexts, Common Aspirations.” 🇳🇵✨

As young people raise the flag of Nepal, they also raise their dreams, hopes, and aspirations for a better future.

Radha Kumari Mahato from Harion–6, Sarlahi, in Madhesh Province, proudly represents the Maithili community. She dreams of becoming a clinical psychologist and making a meaningful contribution to the field of mental health and psychology. 🧠🌱

Radha recognizes that the path toward her dream is not easy. Financial limitations and the challenge of building a supportive team are among the obstacles she faces. Yet, she remains determined to continue pursuing her goal with courage and perseverance.

She believes that one day she will use her knowledge and experience to serve her community and contribute positively to Nepal. Above all, Radha reminds us that, regardless of our community, culture, or background, we are all Nepali. 🤝🇳🇵

This International Youth Day, we celebrate young people like Radha who dream with purpose, persevere through challenges, and carry a vision of service for their communities and the nation.

✨🇳� “International Youth Day 2026 | Different Contexts, Common Aspirations.” 🇳🇵✨

🌏 In a diverse country like Nepal, young people grow up with different ethnic, cultural, religious, linguistic and social identities. These differences enrich our society, but when they become the basis for an “us versus them” mindset, they can also deepen divisions.

🤝 This International Youth Day, we celebrate young people as partners in building communities where differences are respected and shared values bring us together.

🌱 At Global Peace Foundation Nepal, we teach young people values-based peacebuilding—looking beyond the symptoms of conflict to identify and understand its deeper roots. We believe in the power of shared values.

💙 Rather than seeing the world through an “us versus them” lens, we encourage young people to recognize that, despite our differences, there is only “us.” We encourage them to find meaning in their relationships with others and build connections based on dignity, respect, empathy, responsibility and a commitment to the common good.

🕊️ We strongly believe peace is not about making everyone the same;however, It is about finding what connects us despite our differences.

🙌 Let us raise not only the flag of Nepal, but also the values that unite us as one human family.
