The Mountain Trust has been asked to make a regular contribution of four pages (A4) covering our ongoing programme of volunteering and internships in the UK and Nepal. Here is the first four page spread on Volunteering with the Mountain Trust. Subsequent issues will address volunteering for a high altitude genetics study, voluntering in the UK and so on and featuring Volunteers' and Interns' experiences. We hope you enjoy the read!

The Trust was featured in the second edition of the Humanitarian Centre's journal on innovations in international development, promulgated from Cambridge.
Our work with UCL, Oxford, the Wellcome Trust, Sanger Institute et al on high altitude genetic research on hypoxia will be covered in the next issuie and more widely in due course.

Masters Thesis In 2006, the Mountain Trust agreed to sponsor the field research of Prabodh Raj Regmi, a Master's Student at Tribhuvan University. His thesis was on how and why Western tourists arriving in Nepal on holiday decide to volunteer to help Nepal through the NGO / INGO sectors. We felt that his findings would not only help the Mountain Trust but could be of use to many other (I)NGOs active in Nepal. A part of the agreement from the outset was that we'd have permission to publish and publicise the results of Prabodh's research to a wider community - and we're delighted to publish his final thesis here: Acknowledgements For further information on the Mountain Trust, please Contact Us.
