Our Story
About Callijatra Foundation
Callijatra Foundation is a youth-driven organization established to promote and popularize Nepalbhasa and Nepal’s traditional scripts, including Ranjana script, Nepal Lipi, Devanagari, and others.
The word “Jatra” means festival in Nepali—reflecting Callijatra’s spirit as a “festival of calligraphy.”
Founded in 2017 as a creative challenge encouraging participants to submit calligraphy in any script on given themes, Callijatra has grown into a national movement. Over the years, it has expanded its impact through:
- Lipi mobile applications
- Script-based digital fonts
- Calligraphy and Lipi tools
- Video tutorial content and online courses
- Publication of books and learning materials
- Workshops, live calligraphy, exhibitions, and cultural events
Its multidisciplinary team includes calligraphers, script experts, designers, artists, teachers, developers, and media professionals who share a deep passion for language, type design, typography, and calligraphy. The Foundation also actively works to promote the Nepalbhasa language through structured learning programs and educational content.
