Business and Economics

Nepal has ample of natural resources including mountains, water resources, forests, hubs, mines, and wild animals. Besides that, we are also rich in terms of cultural diversity, historical places, religious spots, trail routes, and humanitarian love. We have had hundreds of herbal medicines, manufacturing industries, and export based economy. Nepal has also the locational advantage of the world's big markets i.e. China and India.

Nepal had started it's hydropower production for the first time in 1968 B.S., although we have been facing inadequate power supply. Nepal has been promoting tourism programs frequently, yet we could not capitalize on it. More than 60 percent of the population is in the agriculture sector but the contribution of agriculture to GDP is declining. Therefore, here a big question arises, why? Whether the policy that we are adopting is suitable? Are the priorities correctly defined? Are our agencies working in the right way to achieve an economic goal? Are the resources allocated correctly? To figure out these questions, Business and Economics has been initiated.

Business and economics is a common platform to discuss business and economic policies through different aspects. The research and advocacy is the core strategy to achieve our aim. We believe in teamwork and participatory contribution. The business and economics work for the business and economic policy research and policy advocacy through interacting with stakeholders including government agency, private sector, national and international agencies working with corresponding objectives.
