Pritha Dahal

Pritha Dahal has over ten years of experience as a high school teacher in Nepal, where she has worked with students from a variety of social backgrounds. She has trained community schoolteachers from community schools and has served as a visiting faculty member at the School of Education at Kathmandu University. In addition, Pritha has collaborated with several non-governmental organizations on various educational projects. Through these experiences, she has developed a strong belief in the importance of collaboration among all education stakeholders—including learners and teachers—to find effective, long-term  contextual solutions rather than just temporary fixes.

Currently, Pritha is pursuing her PhD at the School of Education, University of Glasgow. Her research focuses on exploring learner-centred education models that are relevant to the context of Nepali community schools. She aims to gain a deeper understanding of the daily teaching and learning experiences of both students and teachers. Additionally, Pritha is committed to amplifying the voices of learners and educators to better understand the current pedagogical practices in Nepali schools.
