Oxford Diplomatic Society Nepal Trip

We are thrilled to announce the Oxford Diplomatic Society's upcoming international trip to Nepal, taking place from April 8-18, 2025. This 10-day journey offers a rare opportunity for students and members to engage directly with high-level policymakers, diplomats, international organizations, and nonprofits. Participants will explore Nepal's dynamic landscape of diplomacy, governance, development, and culture through a series of official meetings, site visits, and immersive experiences.
Led by Asmod Khakurel, Director of the Tourism and Cultural Exchange department at IRD and a valued member of the Society, this trip marks a milestone as the first official exchange program organized in partnership with IRD. From discussions at the Prime Minister's Office to cultural walks through the historic Kathmandu Valley, the program promises a rich blend of intellectual engagement and cultural discovery.
