South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics and Environment (SAWTEE) organized
a discussion programme titled “Assessment of Nepal’s public debt, and
experiences of Pakistan and Sri Lanka” on 1 September 2023 as part of a seminar
on "Small State Capabilities: Navigating Competition and Foreign Policy
Priorities in Nepal", supported by The Asia Foundation (TAF). The
discussion programme aimed to initiate a dialogue on Nepal’s public debt
and assess whether Nepal is veering towards an unsustainable path of
debt accumulation.
