Group work: Participants are divided into smaller teams (ideally 4 to 8 people) to complete specific tasks. This setup encourages more focused discussion, teamwork, and shared problem-solving. Group discussions: Open discussions allow participants to express their thoughts, listen to others, and possibly rethink their own views. These exchanges help understand personal values, attitudes, and behaviors. Facilitators ensure everyone gets the chance to speak, and often designate a rapporteur to summarize the key points of the groups. Case studies: Real or hypothetical stories will spark discussion and draw lessons. These can be delivered through text, images, video, or storytelling. Facilitators prepare guiding questions, give participants time to analyze the case, and lead a debrief to capture key insights. Energizers: These quick and fun activities will break up monotony and keep energy levels high during longer sessions. These helps refresh participants and maintain engagement. Classroom exercises: These activities are conducted within the full group, without breaking into smaller teams. They often involve individual reflection or collective brainstorming. Group exercises: Conducted in smaller, mixed-background groups (ideally 5 to 8 people), these exercises encourage diverse contributions and active collaboration.

Population management should make maximum utilization of demographic dividend which is linked with population distribution (1). A recent preliminary report of the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) reveals that Nepal’s population grew by 0.93 percent annually on average, the lowest in the last 80 years, while the average population growth rate of the previous census was 1.35 percent (2). Nepal witnessed a decrease in overall population in two consecutive censuses in 1920 and 1930, and its population has been growing remarkably (3). In the last six decades, the country saw over two percent population growth in the first four decades. The population growth had started to decrease significantly since the 2011 Population census, according to the bureau’s records. Though international out-migration has also been touted as the reason behind the low population growth over the last decade and as per CBS, a total of 2.2 million Nepali living abroad currently (4). Ten years ago, a total of 1.9 million people were living abroad most of the time. The census also showed that Nepal’s international out-migrated population is not as large as it has been believed to be, though its effect has been well reflected in the national demographic structure.
