From October 2023 to July 2024, a research team from Kathmandu University partnered with Mobile Arts for Peace (MAP) to develop a pilot Nepal Arts Education Framework. The goal was to adapt and integrate MAPs art-based exercises into existing secondary school curricula for Culture and Arts Education. This was a need articulated at the UNESCO-MAP Roundtable in September 2023. The pilot Framework provides a case study and resource to inform the implementation of the UNESCO Framework on Culture and Arts Education (February 2024) and support the UNESCO Creative Cities designation of Kathmandu (January 2024), as well as the Local Education planning.
