Dr. Anuj Gurung and MU students of Jan 26 This presentation, led by MU students who have visited Nepal, explores the unprecedented role of Nepal’s Generation Z in challenging entrenched political systems and catalyzing a change of government. Drawing on on-the-ground accounts, social media campaigns, and youth-led organizing, it examines how a digitally connected, socially conscious generation transformed frustration into coordinated action. We will trace the movement’s origins, tactics, and leadership, highlight the cultural and political context that gave rise to it, and consider its implications for democratic participation, governance, and intergenerational power dynamics across South Asia and beyond.
