ABOUT NEPAL
Namaste and Welcome to Nepal! A Himalayan republic conjures up the images of snow-capped mountains and rolling green hills. Indeed, out of ten worlds tallest mountains, eight stands in Nepal, making Nepal a mountaineers dream. But Nepal has much more to offer than just the high breathtaking Himalayas. A small country with an area of approximately 52,818 sq miles is diverse geographically as well as ethnically with more than 61 ethnic groups and 70 spoken languages. You will find rich cultures and vibrant traditions, exquisite temples and monuments as well as fast flowing rivers and tropical jungles teeming with wildlife, making your trip an unforgettable experience. All the people from different races and religions live in harmony and there is an ideal blending of Hinduism and Buddhism. To cross a street in Kathmandu is to travel across centuries. Shrines, temples, palaces, palace squares, ageless sculptures and legends that are parts of every brick and stone and gilded masterpiece, make Kathmandu Valley a verifiable living museum. Nepal is the place where the ice-cold of the mountains meets the steamy heat of the Indian plains. Its a land of yaks and yetis, stupas and Sherpas and some of the best trekking on earth. The Himalayas most sophisticated urban cultures took shape here, in the three great minikingdoms of the Kathmandu Valley Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur - home to a world-class artistic and architectural heritage. Nepal, as a state, was established when an ambitious Gorkha king named Prithvi Narayan Shah embarked on a conquering mission that led to the defeat of all the kingdoms in the valley (including Kirtipur which was an independent state) by 1769. Instead of annexing the newly acquired states to his kingdom of Gorkha, Prithvi Narayan decided to move his capital to Kathmandu establishing the Shah dynasty which ruled unified Nepal from 1769 to 2008 when the last Shah ruler, Gyanendra relinquished his power to make way for total democracy under the rule of a Prime Minister.
ABOUT CONFERENCE
Tomorrows pharma education and research for superior health care pose a challenge to policy makers, statutory authorities, educators and researchers.
There are four major partners in the healthcare system- Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing and Dental. Pharmacy happens to play an important role as it presents to the other three partners medications, devices and pharmaceutical care services which are a pre-requisite for any health care program for amelioration of disease and pain. Pharmaceutical care practice areas can be broadly classified as Industrial, Community, Hospital and Clinical. Each of the four classes can be sub divided in to several categories/specialities which keep increasing with the development of the professional facets. Knowledge is a living organism which grows, replaces obsolete parts with new functional ones and prevents an individual/society from becoming inert, sterile and insular by acquisition transmission, extension and discovering applications. The agencies which assist in this process are universities, developed academic institutions, professional societies, information technology, industry, ethical pharmacies and hospitals. The foremost parameter is the individual who wishes to learn throughout ones life. One should clearly understand the scope of literacy, education and knowledge and differentiate between them. In the twenty first century a new definition has emerged learn, and relearn for survival. The objective of this conference is to provide scientific, professional and technological training to all aspects relating to identification, standardization, formulation, preparation, distribution, quality assurance and use of drugs and medicines, dissemination of drug information and methodology in the prevention and management of disease, prevention of misuse of drugs and implementation of laws governing drug misuse and development of innovative ideas to further strengthen pharmaceutical healthcare. The education should enable one to apply scientific methods, thoughts and expertise to fill positions of responsibility in education, pharmaceutical production, drug control, marketing and community, hospital and clinical practice areas.
