I waited at the beautiful square today for a book launch. As the sun streamed in through the scaffolds, I discovered its wonders again. Joe Niemczura's new book 'The Sacrament of the Goddess' finds an eternally relevant space in Patan.

SOCIETY AT LARGE

While on a trip to Panauti village, I met this man and saw a shack he called his "home". He shared that he had constructed this house himself. While in the urban area, we look for latest gadgets and never ending comforts. We embrace our humanity by sharing pics on facebook whereas in the rural area, there isn’t even proper place to shelter their head and protect themselves from  the heat and the cold.

'Development was founded in 1957 as the journal of the Society for International Development. Since then, the journal has provided a space for debate and cross-fertilization on the most topical issues in the development arena. By providing articles by a wide variety of actors such as development practitioners, academics and activists, it has brought to international attention issues that were left on the margins, being one of the first publications to talk about gender issues or the link between development and the environment.'

'For more than twenty years Water.org has worked with local partners and communities to solve the water and sanitation crisis. Over 75,000 people have donated their online voice to help inform and educate others online. When you tell your social networks about the water crisis, you are helping others become more aware of the challenges associated with not having access to safe water and sanitation.'
