The term Non-Resident Nepali (NRN) refers to Nepalis irrespective of
their nationality (citizenship) living outside of Nepal. The
Non-Resident Nepali Association was instituted to represent the
interests, concerns and commitment of all NRNs and to encourage their
involvement in the economic and social life of Nepal. For practical
purposes Nepalis citizens living outside of the SAARC member countries
are considered NRNs and come under the told of NRNA.
The NRNA came into existence at the first Non- Resident Nepali
Conference held on 11-14 October 2003 where the assembled delegates
decided to join their hands together to create a common institution of
Nepalis residing outside of Nepal. NRNA is a global network of Nepalis
associations and is committed to streamline their energy and resources
for the transformation of Nepali society. From the nationality pint of
view both Nepali nationals and foreign nationals of Nepali origin are
regarded as NRNs.
