About 850 people, representing the six main ethnic groups of Nepal—the Magar, Newar, Gurung, Thakuri, Chhetri, and Dalits—live in the village of Jhumlawang. Although the village and its residents have a limited amount of documented history, we know from our family history and information passed down from generation to generation that our ancestors immigrated to our village hundreds of years ago from different regions of modern-day Nepal.

Due to its copper mining industry, this settlement used to be a hub of commercial activity in the area hundreds of years ago. However, the majority of community members today depend on agriculture, which is founded on traditional farming.

For jobs as unskilled laborers, rural adolescents are increasingly leaving their families behind to travel overseas, particularly to Gulf nations.
