OUR PROGRAMMES:-
1. Development Dialogue:-
Initiative Nepal (Steps for Better lives) through participatory youth engagement in collaboration with Leading Minds have initiated to bring democratic dialogue to the public and aspire to travel around what democracy and sustainable development mean in the different cultural and civilization milieus and how they are realized at personal and public levels.
We are working to bring the Development Dialogue forum accessible to citizen's participation from all walks of lives thus making it attractive for more and more citizens to public life. The idea of participation is extremely important for peace and social balance of the society. It also stimulates them to talk, cooperate and take part in areas of their concern.
All the way through this endeavor Initiative Nepal seeks to influence state policymaking, help in shaping public opinion and collective will formation.
