UNRCPD Celebrates 5 Years in Asia-Pacific

Start Date: Sep 20 2013
Location: Kathmandu, Nepal

This year UNRCPD marks the 5th anniversary of its presence in the Asia-Pacific region. Since its relocation in 2008 from New York to Kathmandu, Nepal, UNRCPD has been working hard to enhance engagement with states and other stakeholders across the region. To celebrate the occasion, UNRCPD will host a reception in Kathmandu for the international community, government and civil society on 20 September. Artwork from the annual children’s drawing competition will also be on display.
