National Stakeholders Identification (Nepal)

[GCRI]

Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for Nepal!
This thread identifies and maps key stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in Nepal. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework
1- Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions focusing on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity in Nepal.
Example: Institutions like Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu University, and think tanks such as the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD).

2- Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
Example: Hydropower companies, renewable energy startups, financial institutions promoting green investment, and agribusinesses implementing sustainable practices.

3- Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
Example: NGOs like WWF Nepal, Nepal Red Cross Society, Practical Action Nepal, and local community groups working on climate adaptation, biodiversity conservation, and community resilience.

4- Government and Public Sector: National, provincial, and local government agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
Example: Ministry of Forests and Environment, National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA), and local municipalities focusing on urban resilience and climate adaptation strategies.

5- Natural Environment: Organizations managing ecosystems, protected areas, and promoting biodiversity conservation across Nepal.
Example: National Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC), Sagarmatha National Park management, and initiatives focused on conserving biodiversity in the Himalayas and protecting endangered species.
