Towards a sustainable Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha

The film is a result of a joint collaboration between UNESCO Office in Kathmandu and UNDP Country Office in Nepal under the UNDP/UNESCO Lumbini Support Project. The UNDP/UNESCO Lumbini Support Project was established to help national authorities in garnering international support for the development of Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha and an UNESCO World Heritage Property in Nepal since 1997. The film is for everyone who has been inspired by the incredible journey and teachings of Lord Buddha. Lord Buddha was born as Prince Siddhartha Gautam in Lumbini, where he began his inspirational journey. The film addresses the overall importance of Lumbini and what it means to people from all walks of life. The message of the film is that we can all honour the birthplace of Lord Buddha by collectively preserving and safeguarding the rich heritage of Lumbini and surrounding areas by working with the local communities while ensuring that the heritage and culture of Lumbini are directly linked to improving their living conditions and livelihoods. In this way, culture can be used as a dynamic force for human development, and the sacredness of the sites in and around Lumbini can be passed on to future generations.
