Disaster Preparedness Network-Nepal (DPNet), established in 1996, stands as a key national umbrella organization dedicated to enhancing disaster management in Nepal through a unified approach involving national and international agencies. The core focus of DPNet is on fostering coordination, collaboration, learning, and sharing of experiences in strengthening disaster management practices. The organization plays a crucial role in knowledge management, capacity building, policy advocacy, and in facilitating networking among government and relevant stakeholders.
More than 30 representatives from NGOs, INGOs, academia, government institutions, and the technology community came together for a multi-stakeholder workshop on “Data, Technology and Disaster Response in Nepal,” aimed at exploring how data and innovation can strengthen disaster preparedness and response systems in Nepal.
DPNet participated in the Project NEAR Nepal / Nepal Localization Lab Review Meeting held at NSET Hindol Hall to discuss localization, civic space, and the sustainability of civil society organizations in Nepal.
The Swiss Consortium and DPNet jointly organized an interaction program titled “Streamlining ReCAP Project Outputs in Policy and Practice” at Burja Hall, Civil Engineering Department, Pulchowk Campus, bringing together national and international experts to strengthen collaboration on climate resilience and multi-hazard disaster risk reduction in Nepal.
