Promoting Sustainable Cities in Karnali

Hriti Foundation’s project, “Promoting Sustainable Cities,” currently being implemented in Birendranagar Municipality—the capital city of Karnali Province—focuses on advancing sustainable urban development. This project supports evidence-based planning and sustainable development practices in Birendranagar. It is primarily a research and dialogue initiative involving the compilation of relevant laws, policies, and strategies, identification of development partners, study of the city’s historical origins, and survey of local issues. Additionally, the project includes research on cultural sustainability, assessment of governance practices, and evaluation of major projects. It is executed in partnership with Purak Asia and in coordination with Birendranagar Municipality.
