Nepal Policy Institute organized a discussion session on its draft Strategic Plan (2022-2025). Given that NPI’s experts were located all across the globe, we had the discussion on two separate days, one with experts based in North America and the other with experts based in Europe, Asia, the Pacific region, and elsewhere.
