NEPAL LEADERSHIP ACADEMY

Nepal Leadership Academy (NLA) is a signature component of Daayitwa Abhiyaan, which envisions a resilient and thriving Nepal where all citizens embrace their responsibilities to collectively transform societal challenges into innovative opportunities. Towards this vision, NLA builds leadership capacity in young change-agents—who are guided by the shared values of collaborating, innovating, and serving and the shared principles of community, justice, and sustainability—to architect effective policy, business and civic solutions that tackle the most grueling adaptive challenges in Nepal. NLA conducts research, develops curriculums and provides in-practice leadership coaching to policy, business, and social innovators in Nepal.

NLA’s genesis can be traced to the Nepal Leadership Lab at Daayitwa (learn more about Daayitwa here), which offered leadership courses that aspired to nurture competent leaders by not only invigorating their zeal to lead, but also by providing them with practical tools to sharpen their competencies.

The Partnerships and Communications Associate is responsible for providing critical support and leadership in planning and development of partnerships and disseminating information of NLA’s programs and activities. The Associate will also provide necessary program-level support for meaningful and productive experience for the course participants. The Partnership and Communications Associate receives supervision from the Director, Nepal Leadership Academy.
