Karnali Academy of Health Sciences is pleased to announce that Mr. Manish Rokaya, a final-year MPH student, received the Best Oral Presentation Award at the Public Health Conference 2026 for his research titled “Willingness to Pay and Enrollment in the National Health Insurance Program in a Remote District of Karnali Province, Nepal: A Community-Based Study,” presented during the conference held on 16–17 May 2026.

The study explored community willingness to pay for improved health insurance services and examined the factors influencing enrollment in the National Health Insurance Program in remote areas of Karnali Province. The findings provide valuable evidence for strengthening equitable health financing mechanisms, enhancing insurance coverage, and informing evidence-based public health policies aimed at underserved and geographically remote populations of Nepal.

In recognition of this outstanding academic achievement and meaningful contribution to public health research, Mr. Rokaya was also honored by Karnali Academy of Health Sciences. The felicitation was jointly conducted by Interim Director and Associate Professor Dr. Binamra Bista and Assistant Dean Prof. Seshananda Sanjel.

Pharmacognosy field tour!
Our B.Pharm 1st and 3rd semester students recently visited the Plant Resources Office and Dhitachaur Plant Garden in Jumla as part of a pharmacognosy field tour.
This educational visit aimed to bridge classroom theory with real-world observation, allowing students to explore medicinal plants in their natural habitat. The experience provided valuable hands-on learning in plant identification, ethnomedicinal uses, and conservation practices.
Faculty members of the Pharmacy School and botanist Susmita Chaudhary assisted throughout the learning process.
