Tripadvisor and Trip.com have issued warnings regarding travel to Nepal following recent disasters.
Former Nepal Tourism Board CEO Deepak Raj Joshi is leading the challenge against these blanket warnings.
They argue that a single disaster should not deter tourism for the entire country and call for support from global tourism organizations.
Nepal's tourism leaders are seeking assistance from UN Tourism and the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC).
