FACES OF HOPE
Experts reflect on one nation’s resilience
Friday 22 April - 5:30 PM at Alliance Française de Katmandou
As we fast approach the one-year anniversary of the April 2015 earthquake we are once again reminded of the resilience of the Nepalese people.
>> TALKS WITH THE NGOs
To mark this milestone the AFK will play host to a number of esteemed experts who will be discussing topics as diverse as Seismology, Humanitarianism and Re-construction, in presence of:
- Eric Sauvage, Engineer working for National Seismological Center who will talk about the previous earthquake and what is suppose to come
- Christian Manhart, UNESCO Director, who will present initiatives in rebuilding heritage sites
- Denis Blamont, Geographer & Researcher, who will introduce the relief provided by the NGOs after the earthquake
It is also a unique opportunity to meet the representatives of several organizations who work in Nepal as Action Against Hunger, Alliance et Protection du patrimoine asiatique, Réseau Chercheurs Népal, National Seismological Center, Planète Enfants, Rock'n'Wood & Shechen Foundation.
Throughout the evening you will hear how leaders on the ground have overcome challenges in the face of monumental adversity.
>> PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION
Photographer Christopher Phillips will also be displaying his work post-earthquake of Nepalese life through his first exhibition: "Life in Nepal". The exhibition will take place from the 22th of April until the 8th of May.
