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 family 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.

🧼 Healthy Habits, Healthy Futures! 🪥🌱

Healthy habits begin with small actions—and small actions can create a big difference. 💚

As part of its WASH project, Global Peace Foundation Nepal, in partnership with Rotaract Club, Madhyapur Thimi, organized an interactive Personal Health & Hygiene Management session at Gyansudha Pathshala, Madhyapur Thimi-8, Bhaktapur. 🏫🤝

👧👦 38 students from Grades 6 and 7 participated in a fun and practical learning experience covering:
🧼 Hand hygiene
🪥 Oral hygiene
🚿 Bathing and body hygiene
💅 Nail and hair care
🌱 Puberty-related hygiene
🚽 Toilet and menstrual hygiene
🥗 Food and water safety

Through practical hand-washing demonstrations, videos, Myth or Fact activities, quizzes, and knowledge checks, students were encouraged not only to learn but also to turn knowledge into everyday habits. 💡🙌

Anisha Tamang, one of the participants, reflected, 💬 “I learned not to share my personal items with others, keep my nails short, change my clothes when they get sweaty, and wash my hands properly with soap and water. I will try to follow these habits in my daily life.”

🌱 Learn. Practice. Share.

Because healthy communities begin with healthy individuals—and healthy habits begin with the small choices we make every day. 💚✨
Let’s empower young people with the knowledge, confidence, and habits they need to care for themselves and inspire others. 🤝🌍

🕊️ “Invest in Peace – For Everyone, Everywhere, Every Day.” 🌍🤝

Peace can sound like a big idea. But most of the time, it begins much closer to home. 🏡❤️ Peace begins in the home. It grows through the character we develop, the values we practice, and the way we treat and relate to others. 🌱

At Global Peace Foundation Nepal, one way we invest in peace means investing in young people and their leadership development. 👩‍🎓👨‍🎓✨ It means creating spaces where young people can learn, reflect, develop character, build meaningful relationships, and discover how they can contribute to their communities. 🤝🌱

Through values-based peacebuilding, we have been nurturing young leaders through the Global Peacebuilders Leadership Program (GPLP)—from Cohort I to Cohort V, and now continuing with Cohort VI. 🌍🕊️ Along this journey, young people have explored character and values, leadership, dialogue and conflict resolution, and the importance of service, while engaging in volunteering and community-oriented initiatives. 💡🤝🙌

Our Moral and Innovative Leadership Workshops (MILW) further create spaces for young people to reflect on who they are as leaders and how their skills and abilities can be used for the greater good. 🌟

Because we believe leadership is not simply about position or skills. Leadership is about character, purpose, responsibility, and the willingness to serve others. ❤️🌏

🕊️ This International Day of Peace, we reaffirm our commitment to investing in young people—helping them develop their character, strengthen their leadership, serve others, and become active builders of peaceful and inclusive communities.

🌱 Invest in character.
🤝 Invest in relationships.
🌍 Invest in young people.
🕊️ Invest in peace.

Peace begins with us. Peace begins at home. Peace begins today. ❤️

🌟 Celebrating Learning in Action! 🌟

Congratulations to our GPLP VI Fellows, Lata Ojha and Goma Devi Koirala, for successfully completing their capacity-building sessions and turning their learning into meaningful, participatory experiences. 👏

💡 Lata’s “What Matters to You? — An Auction of Values” encouraged fellows to reflect on their choices, priorities, and what they truly make room for, connecting values with Ownership and Living for the Greater Good. 🌱

🤝 Goma’s “When the Flood Is Over, But the Fear Remains: Understanding Psychological Trauma After Disaster” helped fellows understand psychological responses after disasters and explore how peacebuilders can listen, notice, support, and connect people to help. 💙

🌍 These experiences reflect the Global Peace Values Framework—Living for the Greater Good, Dream Big, Ownership, and Teamwork—reminding us that peacebuilding begins with the values we practice and extends through the actions we take for others.

🕊️ As peacebuilders, the call is clear: learn with purpose, take ownership, stand with others, and turn our values into action for a more compassionate and peaceful society.

From learning to facilitating, from values to action—our GPLP fellows continue to grow as Moral & Innovative Leaders and peacebuilders. ✨🕊️

🌟 Celebrating Our GPLP Fellows: Voices for Peace, Prevention & Change 🌟

Kudos to our GPLP Fellows—Radha Kumari Mahato, and Anuja Rimal—for successfully presenting their capacity-building sessions and sharing ideas that remind us of the power of knowledge, and responsible leadership. 🎤🌱

Each Fellow explored a different topic, yet all two presentations reflected a shared commitment to creating a more peaceful, just, and inclusive society.

🌍🕊️ Radha Kumari Mahato | War & Conflict
Radha focused on the far-reaching consequences of war and conflict, inviting us to revisit difficult realities and reflect on how they affect individuals, communities, and societies.

Through powerful video footage from the war in other countries, as well as events from Nepal, she created space to pause, revisit, and think about the human impact of conflict. Her presentation highlighted the psychological trauma, child soldiers, the collapse of health systems, economic hardship, gender-based violence, and disruption to education that can result from war and conflict.
Radha emphasized why peace matters and encouraged us to reflect on the human costs of conflict and the importance of building a more peaceful future. 🕊️🌱

🛡️ Anuja Rimal | Preventing Sexual Violence
Anuja explored the prevention of sexual violence from multiple perspectives, discussing its major causes and risk factors, as well as the legal and institutional frameworks designed to address it.
She also highlighted the global situation of sexual violence and reflected on the role of peacebuilders in taking meaningful action to prevent and combat it. Her session emphasized that creating safer and more peaceful communities requires awareness, accountability, strong institutions, collective responsibility, and sustained action. 💜🤝🌍

Together, the sessions encouraged us peacebuilders to look critically at the realities of violence while reflecting on the role each of us can play in building safer, more peaceful, and more just communities. 🕊️🌱

Radha and Anuja’s willingness to share, and lead reflects the spirit of the GPLP Fellowship—developing young leaders who use their knowledge, ideas, and voices to contribute to something greater than themselves. 🌱✨

Keep learning. Keep leading. Keep using your voice for peace and positive change. 🕊️💙

📸 Photography for Peacebuilding

In the wake of the devastating flash floods in Nepal, we are reminded that every image we share carries responsibility.

GPLP Fellow Prithu Dahal explored the role of Photography in Peacebuilding during his capacity-building session. He highlighted how visual storytelling can connect people, share lived experiences, foster empathy and understanding, amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard, and ultimately contribute to building peace.

Photography can help us see people beyond labels, understand different perspectives, and create connections through shared human experiences. 📷🕊️❤️

At a time of crisis, let’s also be mindful of what we post, how we frame stories, and the dignity of those we capture.

Pause. Reflect. Share responsibly.

🕯️ In Remembrance, We Stand Together

Today, on Nepal’s National Day of Mourning, we paused—not just to remember, but to feel, to listen, and to stand together.

The Global Peace Foundation Nepal brought together GPLP Fellows, volunteers and staff to remember the lives lost in the recent Rasuwa flood and to hold space for the pain and uncertainty experienced by families and communities affected by the disaster.

We began by sharing what we have seen, heard, and felt. Some Fellows who had been to the affected areas spoke about their experiences in the field—the heartbreaking realities faced by the affected communities.

Through our sharing, there was a shared understanding: recovery is not only about rebuilding homes and infrastructure; it is about rebuilding lives, restoring dignity, and reminding people that they are not alone.

We asked ourselves what we can do—not simply as Fellows, but as fellow human beings and as a community—to support recovery and rehabilitation.

We then lit candles and observed a minute of silence for those whose lives were lost. In that quiet moment, we remembered that behind every number is a person, a family, a story, and a life that mattered.
🕯️ May we carry their memories with us.
❤️ May we hold space for those who are grieving.
🤝 And may our solidarity become action for those who are rebuilding.

A disaster may take away lives, homes and livelihoods, but it does not have to take away our sense of humanity and community. In moments of loss, our greatest strength is our willingness to care for one another.

Let us remember. Let us listen. Let us stand together. And let us turn our compassion into meaningful action.

URGENT PLEA: STANDING TOGETHER IN THE FACE OF DISASTER

Global Peace Foundation Nepal stands in solidarity with everyone affected by yesterday’s devastating floods across Nepal.

Our thoughts are with those who have lost loved ones, homes, livelihoods, and their sense of safety. Peace is not merely the absence of conflict; however, it is the presence of compassion, dignity, solidarity, resilience, and collective action. In times of disaster, peacebuilding means coming together, supporting one another, protecting dignity, and strengthening the resilience of individuals and communities.

As affected communities begin the difficult journey of relief, recovery, and rebuilding, let us foster social cohesion, mutual support, empathy, and hope ensuring that no one faces this crisis alone.

We encourage those who are able to contribute to the Prime Minister’s Disaster Relief Fund and support rescue, relief and recovery efforts for affected communities.

Together, let us turn compassion into community service, strengthen community resilience, and build a more peaceful and resilient Nepal.

In light of today’s devastating flood and the ongoing emergency situation, timely information and quick access to the right support can save lives. Please save these important emergency and helpline numbers, and share them with your family, friends, and community.

Our thoughts and prayers to those who were affected by this disaster.

Stay alert, stay safe, and avoid spreading unverified information. 🙏🇳🇵

🎤 Presentation: It Isn’t Just About Good Slides

A powerful presentation isn’t about showing how much you know. It’s about helping people understand, feel, and remember your message. 💡❤️

This was one of the key takeaways from the Presentation Skills Training organized for our GPLP Fellows. 🌱

The session was all about learning by doing. Our Fellows engaged in hands-on activities where they:
🎣 Practiced writing powerful hooks to capture their audience’s attention
🔧 Fixed and reshaped a sample presentation, turning a scattered message into a clear and compelling one
🎤 Presented their ideas and practiced communicating with confidence
🤝 Learned through peer feedback, listening, and collaboration
💡 Explored how to turn ideas into messages that inspire action

The Fellows learned that presentation skills are about more than speaking confidently. They are the ability to use our voice, ideas, presence, and communication tools to connect with others, communicate with clarity and confidence, and inspire meaningful action.

It is also about using our voice responsibly for the Greater Good, articulating bold aspirations, taking Ownership of our message and impact, and building understanding through Teamwork. 🌍🌟👐🤝

We look forward to seeing our GPLP Fellows take the stage, share their ideas, and use their voices to contribute to something beyond themselves. 🌱🎤✨

Your voice matters. Your message matters. And what you choose to do with it matters even more. 💫

🌱 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.
