Conservation and Development
Deepak Tamang describes himself as a conservationist and an activist, and is currently in the United States as a Senior International Research Fellow at the World Forestry Center. He has worked in development for over 30 years, and currently heads Search Nepal. He joins us to talk about how until the 1970s Nepal was at a self-sufficient level of food production, how the food crisis may help push alternative energies other than food fuel, and the political and business sense in ensuring that the New Nepal is a Green Nepal.
In Conversation is a weekly podcast on Samudaya.org, covering a wide variety of issues, from current affairs to arts, literature and society. It will also maintain a regular review of the week's news events from Nepal.
We hope you take part in the conversation and send us comments and feedback at inconversation@samudaya.org
