On stage …
Naisula Lepariyo, IOB alumna (2015, Kenya), featured in a new theatre show by
Belgian performer Pieter Embrechts called ‘A Street Concert’. Using music, words and
video, Pieter Embrechts tells the life stories of nine different people he encountered
on the ‘Turnhoutsebaan’, arguably the most multicultural street in Antwerp and
the starting point of each of the stories. Life stories, like Naisula’s, bring the whole
world onto the stage and entice the audience to reflect on this crossroads of cultures,
nationalities and stories.
In a journal
Dilip Bhatta, IOB alumnus (2015, Nepal), is currently working as a researcher and
team leader on the ‘Promoting Resilience in Nepal’ research project at the University
of York. He has recently published his research paper ‘Forest-based micro and small
enterprises in Nepal: review of status, constraints, scope and approach effectiveness’
in the International Forestry Review (IFR).
In action …
