In Nepal, 18 million people are eligible to vote in this Thursday's parliamentary elections. More than 120 parties are running, over a third of them created after the September 2025 uprising, which was largely driven by Generation Z. Among their demands: an end to corruption and nepotism and above all, job creation. Every day, nearly 2,000 young Nepalis leave the landlocked Himalayan country to find work abroad.
