The caste/ethnic representation of the 74 participants largely reflected the demographic composition of the proposed Karnali province, including 80% hill castes (including 18% Dalits) and 15% percent Janjati. Many represented the major political parties, as well as civil society and Dalit organizations. The participants represented all eleven districts of the proposed province. Women constituted nearly one-third of the total participants.
