This poster presentation focuses on the role of the Mahidol University Alumni Association Nepal in enabling regular and frequent exchange of knowledge, ideas and skills among graduates of Mahidol University in order to promote their common academic, professional and other mutual interests. The Association has met in Kathmandu since 2006 and carries out a number of functions, including academic and developmental project collaborations between Mahidol University and other universities in Nepal such as Kathmandu University, Tribhuvan University and Pokhara University. One of the most significant contributions has been the Higher
Education Scholarship, giving successful candidates the opportunity to attend graduate programmes at Mahidol University, Thailand. A south-to-south partnership model has been explored through a series of meetings between the Graduate School staff at Mahidol University and the graduate-enrolled students.
