Being established in 1990, Nepal Federation of Indigenous Nationalities (NEFIN) is the one and only umbrella federation of Organizations of enlisted Indigenous Peoples of Nepal; a legally recognized organization registered under "Organizations Registration Act, 2034" of Nepal. NEFIN truly represents Nepal's indigenous peoples who constitute 35% of total country population (Census 2021). From the day one of its establishment, NEFIN has been working for the protection of rights of Nepal's indigenous peoples over their ancestral domain, traditional lands, territories and natural resources as well as their cultural heritages, history, language, scripts, culture, traditions and identity. It has played a historical role in establishment of federalism, secularism and proportionate representation in Nepal.

 

In collaboration with its international collaborators, NEFIN is planning to initiate interventions on mapping of ancestral domains, traditional lands, territories and natural resources under the communal use of indigenous peoples of Baglung, Okhaldhunga (Rolpa, Solukhumbu and Dhankuta) districts of Nepal.
