Dhungentar's Post-earthquake Journey to Recovery and Resilience

This photobook shows the progression of Dhungentar’s recovery, from the agonising destruction wreaked by the earthquake to the hope and resolve that slowly permeated people’s lives. The locals’ inherent resilience is reflected in their efforts to rebuild from the rubble, and their willingness to adopt new practices and lifestyles shows their appreciation of the need for change. The book is interspersed with short narratives of locals who present distinctive outlooks regarding their hardships following the earthquake, their fears and hopes, and their experiences with the project activities in Dhungentar.
