Germany is also contributing through the United Nations Nepal Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) and European Union in Nepal humanitarian funding. We are responding today and building resilience for tomorrow, in close coordination with the Government of Nepal and National Disaster Risk Reduction & Management Authority.

Our thoughts are with the victims of this disaster and their families. Germany stands with the people of Nepal in this difficult time. Our support reflects the deep partnership between our two countries and our shared commitment to protecting human life and dignity in the face of natural disasters.

Young people are not just the future; they are shaping the future today. 🌱

As part of the SDG Ambassador Fellowship Program, Kantipur City College students visited the German Development Cooperation-GIZ Nepal to learn about GIZ’s work, exchange ideas, and share their experiences and challenges from their communities.

The exchange offered a valuable opportunity for young people to reflect on the issues that matter most to them, the changes they want to see in Nepal over the next five years, and the role international partnerships can play in achieving that future.

Their perspectives remind us that meaningful progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals requires listening to young people, creating space for dialogue, and supporting them to turn ideas into action.

🚀 A milestone for Nepal's entrepreneurial ecosystem!

The successful introduction of SME Loop—GIZ’s SME coaching approach—marks an important step toward strengthening the country's entrepreneurial support ecosystem. 🇳🇵

Through , GIZ and GFA Consulting Group trained coaches from four local organisations - FWEAN, NEFSCUN, Daayitwa, and Duhabi Municipality, equipping them with a globally proven coaching methodology that will continue creating impact. 🌱

Young theatre practitioners shape the future of Nepali storytelling : one story at a time.📖

As we celebrate International Youth Day, we mark the milestone of welcoming the third cohort of the Mandala Drama School's 1.5-year residential program, empowering young theatre practitioners since 2020. What began as a collaboration between the German Development Cooperation - GIZ and Mandala Theatre has grown into a sustainable institution continuing with support from the European Union.

Over the past 5 years, the Drama School has empowered young theatre practitioners from across Nepal to become cultural leaders, educators, and changemakers. Combining theatre with civic education, they have strengthened dialogue, inclusion, critical thinking and peacebuilding in their communities.

The successful transition to EU support reflects the lasting impact of investing in youth-led creative spaces ensuring that the next generation of Nepali storytellers will continue to inspire, question and lead.

Thank you European Union in Nepal for carrying this vision forward.🙏
