Two days VCs meeting of Himalayan University Consortium concluded at Nepal. The member countries resolved to collaborate together to strengthen the linkages within the members countries and members of the HUC Country chapters. Vice Chancellor KIU Prof. Dr. Attaullah Shah while giving his suggestions at the concluding session stressed for the closer integration of thematic research groups.

He recommended that member countries may form TRG  within universities and the focal persons may collaborate with each other part if the research finding must be dedicated to Mountain Focused Research. The Country chapters may jointly organize seminar workshops and Conferences. They may also develop joint programs and courses to be offered through online modes.
