Risk and Variables

We do not foresee security risk to the Conference or its participants.

Political instability leading to abrupt street protest and closure of the market and transportation may obstruct the organization of events. However, prior negotiations with political parties will be made in order to avert this risk and ensure that the week covering the conference dates, 10-12 January 2010, are left unhindered.

Availability of desired resource persons for the conference dates, despite positive indications given by several international experts with interest in Nepal, may prevent us to ensure their presence. While we see the possibility, we are convinced that we will have the important resource persons so important for this project.
