A Work in Progress: Nepal’s Bold Bet on Federalism
•
The Asia Foundation
InAsia explores Nepal's transformative journey into federalism following a civil war and political deadlock. With the 2015 constitution, Nepal embarked on a new governance path, decentralizing powers to provincial and local governments. We delve into the successes and challenges of this shift with insights from Professor Bipin Adhikari of Kathmandu University and Professor John Warhurst of Australian National University.
They share perspectives from the recent International Conference on Federalism in Kathmandu, discussing the global implications and lessons of Nepal's federalism experiment. Join us for a concise yet enlightening discussion on Nepal's political evolution and the broader impacts of federal governance.
