ISET-Nepal organised a capacity building workshop during the second week of February, 2013 for its junior researchers. The trainers Ms. Kiran Pereira (Consultant at Waterwise) and Jayendra Rimal (Chief Operating Officer at ISET-Nepal) provided some useful tips to improve verbal and written skills. The researchers were also given an opportunity to enhance their analytical skills by critically reviewing scientific papers and presenting their comments to the group. The training is one of the first such initiatives taken by ISET-Nepal to strengthen the written, verbal and presentation skills of its junior researchers.
