I was born in Nepal and grew up there. My educational background is diverse:
B.Sc. in Microbiology, Nepal; MA in Rural Development, Nepal and currently
doing another Masters’ in Anthropology, Canada. My
current thesis is to do an anthropological study about the interaction between
local women and medicinal plants in Marpha Village of Nepal. I’ll be working on
the medicinal plants and the way it is intermixed with the life of Thakali
women of Marpha Village in Nepal. The
three words that describe my work are gender, economy and medicinal plants.
I don’t consider myself as an
ethnobiologist, but my field of work does touch a part of Ethnobiology. I just
want to know the point of view of women towards medicinal plants in their
locality. I yet don’t have any memories as I yet need to go to the field. My
future is to continue to pursue this line of interaction between women and
medicinal plants.
