About Us
“Far Western Nepalese Society of Victoria (FWNSV) was incorporated in Melbourne Victoria on 3 December 2017 under the Associations Incorporation Reform Act 2012”
Association’s Objectives
This association aims to bring together all the people migrated from the Far Western Development Region of Nepal (Now Province No. 7, Far Western Province) to Australian state of Victoria to promote, share and conserve their culture, language and festive events. Far Western part of Nepal has more diversity in terms of culture and language in comparison to other parts of Nepal. The main objectives are:
‣ To organise not-for-profit social activities, festival events, cultural activities and sports events,
‣ To promote networking among community members,
‣ To provide financial and moral support to community members in times of need,
‣ To promote and conserve culture and languages of far-western part of Nepal so that they can be transferred to next generation.
Our Mission
The mission of the association is to promote and conserve traditional cultures and foods of Far Western part of Nepal by organising different community events and activities. Being away from the country of birth and in new environment, effect of new culture, food and other activities are prominent and community members tend to forget their traditional cultures. The members of second generation who are born in Australia or elsewhere outside Nepal will not know about our traditions, cultures and foods if not transferred and taught to them. Therefore, FWNSV aims to bring together all community members to share their knowledge, experiences and talents among other members of the community through festival events, sports activities and other cultural programs.
Why Join Our Society?
FWNSV provides a unique platform for individuals and community members to share their talents and knowledge among other members and help develop communication and leadership skills. With increasing number of immigrants from different parts of Far Western part of Nepal to different cities of Victoria, Australia we realised that it is essential to connect each other through a formal channel. Joining the association will thus provide you with a platform to network, share experiences and talents and access to up to date information on different cultural, social, historical and spiritual aspects of Far Western part of Nepal. It also provide chance to support community members or other individuals through financial, moral and other contribution.
How to Accomplish Goals ?
Our objectives will be accomplished through the active participation of community members in organising different activities such as festival events (Guara, Holi and Dashain), sports events and other literary and social activities. We also collaborate with other community organisations, charity forums and national and international bodies to raise funds, share our community views and help people during natural disasters.
