SONP-UK Podcast

The Society of Nepalese Professionals UK produces and takes part in podcast discussions with prominent voices from Nepal and from the Nepalese community in Britain. The conversations examine the challenges facing the diaspora, the opportunities it can open up for Nepal, and the professional expertise our members bring to both.
Episodes are published on the SONP-UK YouTube channel and are listed below, newest first.
