I am involved in journalism and working actively as a journalist since last 11 years in Nepal. I have some knowledge on peace journalism while working in print and electronic media. Further more, I have worked as a station-manager/ Editor in chief in Radio Tulsipur, Nepal. I think Community Radios have played a significant role for social changes in our country. As radios have played vital role for the peace establishment and positive changes in Nepal, it has been regarded as a prime denote and praised world wide. Now, Nepal is under the peace process and due to the role that the community radio played for peace establishment in past 10 conflict years, it is being imitative in Asia pacific regions. There are still the remnants of past 10 years' conflict in Nepalese societies and the achievements of great agitations has not been completely institutionalized. In the context, the community radios have been working to achieve the result in a positive way. I would be want to membership, which is very important for my success courier.
