The Chepang, also known as Chewang, are an Tibeto-Burman ethnic group from the rugged ridges of the Mahabharat mountain range of central Nepal. With increasing populations, lack of arable land and few irrigation options, malnutrition has been a historic problem for the Chepang despite forest supplements. The Chepang have often been characterized as the poorest of Nepal's poor. Forced teenage pregnancies are common. Chepang men and women are basically egalitarian and no social ranking exists as it does in caste Nepalese society. Many Chepang cannot read and write due to a lack of education beyond elementary school, and this illiteracy stands in contrast to the great gains Nepal has been making in reducing illiteracy. They are mostly located in Dhading District, Chitwan District, Gorkha Dist

  • Чепанг — народ, проживающий на территории Непала. Большая часть проживает в долинах рек Лотхар-Кхола и Мале-Кхола, а также на склонах горного хребта Махабхарат. Отдельные группы представителей народа чепанг населяют территорию в южной части Непала, к северу от реки Рапти. По данным на конец 90-х годов, численность народа составляла 30 тыс. человек. (ru)
  • 切彭人，是尼泊爾中部馬哈巴拉特山脈地區的汉藏语系土著民族，人口約68,399人。 在過去兩、三世代，切彭人已開始慢慢地從半游耕（刀耕火種）的生活方式轉向更加安定的生活方式，越來越依賴於永久性的玉米，小米和香蕉的種植。然而，嚴峻的地形使永久性耕作變得困難，森林仍然是切彭人食物的重要來源。歷史上，野生山藥和塊莖的收集，從附近河流捕獲的魚，以及附近森林捕獵的蝙蝠和野生鳥類，野鹿，補充了他們對碳水化合物和蛋白質的需求。 儘管有森林食物的補充，但隨著人口的增加，耕地的減少和灌溉系統的不足，使營養不良一直是切彭人一個歷史性問題。 切彭人男女基本上是平等的，不像尼泊爾印度教民族的社會結構，但強迫少女懷孕很常見。儘管國家在減少文盲方面取得了巨大成就，但許多切彭人仍不能讀寫和適時入學。根據2001年尼泊爾人口普查，全國共有52,237名切彭人。其中67.13％為印度教，23.38％為佛教徒，7.49％為基督徒，1.25％為其他。他們大多生活於Dhading區、奇特旺區、廓爾喀縣、馬克旺普爾縣、塔納胡縣。 (zh)

  • Les Chepangs (ou Shepangs) forment un peuple indigène et groupe ethnique particulier vivant dans les parties centrale et méridionale du Népal. Peuple très isolé et longtemps discriminé, les Chepangs, qui étaient à l'origine nomades, se sont partiellement sédentarisés et cultivent le maïs et l'orge mais récoltent aussi des produits de la forêt pour la fabrication du thé, savon, miel, épices et huiles essentielles. La région traditionnelle des Chepangs est devenue une destination prisée des amateurs de trekking au Népal, particulièrement autour des villages de Hattibang, Juatesh, Changa Dinglang, Jyandala, Shaktikhor. Bien qu'hindous de religion et d'organisation sociale (système des castes), les Chepangs ont conservé une forte tradition chamanique où le pande (chaman en ) intervient afin de guérir et d'aider dans ses tâches la communauté.
