Hidden Himalaya - Humla and Mugu , Nepal

Humla district, one of Nepal’s highest and most inaccessible district, is located in the far northwest of Nepal and has a population of around 45,000 living in scattered enclaves in the lower valleys of the Himalayas, between 1500-7300m altitude. Simikot, the district headquarters (indicated with the yellow dot in the map below), has a dirt airstrip that lands only a few flights per week in good weather.

The closest road-head in Nepal to Humla is nine days walk to the south; and from Tibet six days walk away to the northeast. These isolated mountain communities rely on subsistence farming and minimal trade with Tibet and India.

Mugu : The Conscience of karnali

The Conscience of Karnali looks at the status of development in the Mugu district of Karnali. The film raises questions on where issues such as employment, technology, education and health stand amidst a largely isolated community in a highly globalised world. The film is a visual journey across a long and arduous trek to some of the most remote villages in Nepal and an interaction with the locals and what they would like to see happening. Development will perhaps eventually come in, but then, what exactly are we looking for when we think of 'developing' a place?

Mugu Girls Football Team - Nepal #Nepalisawesome

Mugu, one of the poorest districts in Nepal, doesn’t have a single football stadium. But it does have a star football player as revered as Argentina’s famous son Lionel Messi – and she happens to be a girl.Sunakali and her team were welcomed home there after winning the women’s national football tournament as if they had won the World Cup in Brazil.


These young women left their mountainous district for the first time to compete in the tournament in Kailali, a journey of hundreds of kilometers. They walked two days to reach the airstrip, and travelled in a plane, rickshaw and bullock cart for the very first time in their lives. There are no direct roads between Kailali and Mugu, and the ones that do exist are in poor condition.
