Biodiversity & ecology
Field-based observation of Nepal’s forests, wetlands, wildlife, and the relationships that hold living landscapes together.
Research & exploration
Nepal is one of the world’s most biodiverse and culturally rich landscapes—and one of the least systematically studied.
We explore the relationships between ecology, culture, and place through careful fieldwork, local collaboration, and long-term observation. Our research turns journeys into knowledge that can be shared, questioned, and carried forward.

What we research
Fieldwork shaped by curiosity, responsibility, and community knowledge.
Our work moves across disciplines because Nepal’s landscapes cannot be understood through a single lens.
Cultural heritage
Documentation of living traditions, sacred places, local histories, and the knowledge carried across generations.
High-altitude cultures
Research into adaptation, livelihoods, mobility, and everyday life in Nepal’s mountain communities.
Indigenous communities
Community-led learning centred on local voices, customary knowledge, identity, and stewardship.
Environmental change
Exploring how climate, land use, and development are reshaping ecosystems and community relationships with place.
Responsible travel
Practical inquiry into travel that supports learning, protects fragile places, and creates meaningful local benefit.
