Career enhancement through Masters in Applied Conflict Transformation Studies from Cambodia, and Graduate Certificate in Conflict Transformation Across Cultures from USA made me more professional in conflict transformation, sensitivity and peace-building. My professional growth is shapping myself as a head of Peace Department in Caritas Nepal. With Caritas Nepal the framework for integrating conflict sensitivity into the project, program cycle and mainstreaming the conflict sensitivity and peacebuilding took abundence initiatives. The initiatives were also with development and humanitarian support programs.
