ANA Youth Forum 2006: ├втВм┼УOpportunities in Nepal and the North Americas├втВм┬Э
├втВм┬ж with a creative eye towards the solution
Vision
The Youth have the ability to shape the today and the tomorrow of their career and their community. Let├втВмтДвs utilize this energy towards a prospering Nepali community.
Opportunities in Nepal: Many of the Youth in the North Americas are interested in learning about and/or investing in the opportunities in Nepal. Some are keen on carving out a return path while others want to partake in these opportunities from abroad. Whereas the picture is nowhere close to rosy today, is it really that dismal? Are there some issues that we have the capability of resolving but offhand, seem insurmountable?
Opportunities in the North Americas: Many exciting opportunities surround the Nepali Youth in the North Americas. Information regarding the prospect and strategies to succeed in such opportunities is much lacking. Awareness and preparedness can help us attain our personal and professional goals more surely.
