‘We are still Nepali’: Students in Korea rally for flood victims

Students and faculty at Hoseo University in South Korea organized a fundraising campaign to support disaster relief efforts in Nepal following devastating flash floods. Over 100 Nepali students at the university, who are currently studying abroad, joined faculty members in promoting the initiative, which includes raising awareness, collecting donations, and advocating for carbon neutrality. Ajit Yadav, president of the Nepali Students’ Association at Hoseo University, emphasized the global impact of climate-related disasters and called for international solidarity. The campaign, titled 'Save Nepal, Save Us, Save Earth,' runs until early October. The university is also assessing whether any of its Nepali students or their families were affected by the floods and plans to offer special scholarships if needed. While no direct impacts on students have been confirmed yet, communication disruptions in Nepal mean the situation remains uncertain.
