Her Majesty The Gyaltsuen graced the opening of the Civil Society Fair 2016 at the Thimphu Changlimithang Centenary Park, yesterday.
Thirty Four Civil Society Organisations in Bhutan took part in the two-day fair.
The fair, entitled “Celebrating Civil Society”, is a thematic exhibition of Civil Society Work, designed to advocate presence of CSOs and the roles the fraternity plays in complimenting government efforts to achieve the development goals of the country.
As the Royal Patron of a number of civil society organisations, including the Ability Bhutan Society, the Royal Society for Protection of Animals, and Bhutan Kidney Foundation, Her Majesty works closely with CSOs in Bhutan.
