This publication is a themed paper presented under Public Administration Association of Nepal (PAAN), focusing on Nepal’s changing political and governance landscape through the lens of Generation Z (Gen-Z) youth activism. It highlights how Nepali youth have historically played central roles in major political transformations, and how that legacy continues today through modern civic and digital movements.
The book explains that today’s youth movements are not only protests against governance weaknesses, but also a call for accountability, inclusion, social justice, democratic practice, and better public service delivery. The discussion explores how Gen-Z expectations are shaping public discourse and placing pressure on state systems to evolve toward more transparent, responsive, and citizen-centered governance.
It further emphasizes that youth-led activism in Nepal should be understood as part of a long-term governance journey, reflecting the country’s broader struggle for reform and institutional effectiveness. The publication positions youth participation as a national strength and an essential force for long-term political stability and sustainable development.
