NeST (Nepalese Society in Trondheim)
Established in 1998, the Nepalese Society in Trondheim is a registered non-profit making voluntary organization of the Nepalese students residing in Trondheim, Norway. The NeST is a voluntary and non-profit making organization of Nepalese students studying at NTNU and HIST.[1] It has about 80 members, mostly students, and other alumni and permanent residents living in Trondheim (Mar 2016).
Following its constitution, members are elected in the Annual General Meeting to form the Executive Committee every year. It has passed more than a decade uniting Nepalese students together, building a rapport with Norwegians and other international students through various kinds of programs like ‘Nepalese Cultural Evening’ and other recreational activities.
Nepalese Cultural Evening
NeST organizes Nepalese Cultural Evening program every year in Spring. The main motive behind the program is to introduce Nepal, its culture, and typical Nepalese food to non-Nepalese. The tradition has been going on since 2008 and getting popular each year.[2][3][4] The Program starts with a small exhibition of items imported from and representing Nepal. The main program usually lasts for one and half hour to two hours in which cultural dance, musical performances, theatrical acts, documentaries and quiz games are conducted. The final and the most popular part of the program is the dinner where typical Nepalese cuisines are served along with typical Nepalese desserts.
