Ms. BI Xiaohan, Deputy Director of UNESCO-ICHEI, delivered remarks on behalf of the UNESCO-ICHEI, and Mr. LI Hao, Regional Director for Southeast Asia and South Asia at MAXHUB, delivered the keynote address. Unveiling Ceremony of the Smart Classroom Held at Tribhuvan University, Nepal This unveiling ceremony marks a pivotal milestone in the UNESCO-ICHEI Smart Classroom project's journey in Nepal. In September 2024, the UNESCO-ICHEI Smart Classroom project team and MAXHUB engineers traveled to Nepal—known as the &quot;Land of Mountains&quot;—and, despite challenges including frequent power outages during the rainy season and difficult transportation conditions, worked closely with Tribhuvan University to complete the hardware installation and deliver initial teacher training within just seven days. On the morning of 19 May 2026, the UNESCO-ICHEI and MAXHUB teams returned to Tribhuvan University for a second round of Smart Classroom training. The training was designed to familiarise a broader group of local faculty and students with the operation and day-to-day maintenance of the Smart Classroom. After more than a year of localized trials, instructional refinement, and continuous capacity-building, the Smart Classroom—&quot;grown&quot; from the foothills of the Himalayas—has now been officially inaugurated as a key venue for teacher training and learning services in the region. Smart Classroom Training Session The Smart Classroom is equipped with interactive touchscreens, a lecture recording and broadcasting system, and a built-in Learning Management System (LMS), enabling hybrid online-offline teaching and learning with data analytics capabilities. Following its inauguration, the classroom will serve four core functions: supporting teaching and learning activities within Tribhuvan University; facilitating the implementation of the IIOE Micro-Certification Programme in Nepal; conducting digital capacity-building training for teachers; and extending outreach to partner institutions across Nepal and the broader South Asian region. In her address, Ms. BI Xiaohan, Deputy Director of UNESCO-ICHEI, noted that the Smart Classroom is &quot;not merely a classroom, but an action platform.&quot; She noted that, on May 20, the 2026 Leadership Policy Dialogue in South Asia was held at Tribhuvan University, during which the IIOE Nepal National Centre was officially unveiled. The launch of the Smart Classroom would provide a powerful implementation engine for the IIOE Nepal National Centre, accelerating the digital transformation of higher education in Nepal. In his remarks, Mr. LI Hao, Regional Director for Southeast Asia and South Asia at MAXHUB, said that for MAXHUB, education &quot;is never just a business.&quot; Where the traditional blackboard once confined teachers and students to &quot;receiving information through a single sensory channel,&quot; he noted, MAXHUB's donated Smart Classrooms in Nepal now allow both to engage in learning through interactive touchscreens, video playback, and online classes. Through its recording and AI analytics capabilities, the Smart Classroom enables students in remote regions to access quality educational resources — echoing the global consensus on educational equity. In the future, UNESCO-ICHEI will continue to work with MAXHUB and other partners to provide technical support, system upgrades, and capacity-building programmes, while collaborating with government agencies, universities, and industry partners to collectively advance the digital transformation of higher education in Nepal and across South Asia.
