Dr. Sara Shneiderman and Dr. Jeevan Baniya jointly discuss how funding from the European Union is flowing into Nepal to support infrastructure development and “good governance” at the local level, while young people are leaving the country through labour migration to global locations including Europe. They consider how these dynamics unfold within the broader geopolitical contexts between the EU, China, and India. This lecture took place in the Jean Monnet Center of Excellence in Critical Infrastructure Studies at UBC. The UBC Centre for European Studies podcast, and this episode is supported by funding from the Faculty of Arts and the 2024-27 Erasmus+ Program of the European Union through the Jean Monnet Actions in the field of Higher Education: Centers of Excellence program.
