I map stories carried by land and memory—blending GIS, TEK, and community voices to reveal the quiet truths of place. My work supports Indigenous stewardship, IPCAs, and land justice.

I had the great opportunity to present my paper on Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs) today at the MGUG Annual Conference at the University of Manitoba. It was inspiring to connect with passionate people.

I created this beautiful creature on QGIS while playing with layer overlays! Then, I added a brand “नक्शा" in Nepali language, which means map (relates to vision in some sense). We do not need paid GIS software for mapping, as the open-source alternative is still competitive!

Please sign and share this petition to repeal the ban on eight students from school basketball sports just because they're in a basketball academy housed at their school. The students don't attend preparatory training in the academy. Students from other schools attending similar programs can play.
