Karmaiya, Rajghat and Shankarpur). For the complete understanding of the current status of the local level all the data in initial VDC/ Municipality level or Municipality level should be arranged in the patterns of newly formed local structure. So, each individual local level can formulate their plans by targeting the needy groups of the society. The profile needs to be prepared including the socioeconomic, cultural, environmental and many more aspects. 1.2 Objective The main objective of this study is to provide data on social, economic, geographical and other areas for the purpose of formulating the Profile of Bagmati Municipality. Another objective is to help in analysis and evaluation of the Municipality objective description by providing information and statistics. Other special objectives are as follows: • Providing an objective description of the Municipality. • Informing about the economic, social, infrastructural, geographical and political environment of the Municipality. • Analyze the Municipality’s different resources’ availability and conditions. • Providing unified description of sector wise offices and organizations of the RM. • Analyzing sector wise development possibilities of the Municipality. • Providing information of the Municipality’s overall sectors to formulate the Municipal’s periodical or annual plans. 1.3 Method To prepare this document, first of all an information collection form was formulated as per the format provided by Ministry of Local Development, Nepal. All the team members from surveyor collected data from individual household. Along with that, plans, policies and other publications of sector wise offices were also collected. Qualitative data is also collected through direct meeting with experts of sector wise offices, professionals in organization and interested scholars of the district and with the help

  • Annual Report
    ANNUAL2018 REPORT Message from the Country Director Last year, we commemorated the 30th anniversary of Adventist Development and Relief Agency- ADRA Nepal. One more year has been completed now. As the years pass on, we have felt added responsibility to serve people in Nepal. We had begun services in the year of 1987 with a focus in health sector. Today as per the needs of community and priority of the government of Nepal, we have expanded to multiple sectors. Currently, our programs are focused on Health, Livelihood, Disaster Risk Management and Education. Our initiatives have been closely connected to the long-term development priorities set by the government of Nepal that put emphasis on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the year 2018, we worked on dierent projects under four core themes ADRA Nepal has been working with as per its strategic direction. Some of the projects built on our previous initiatives targeted to the communities aected by the devastating earthquake of 2015 as it’s impacts on agriculture, education, and health sector remained critical. We work with people in poverty and distress to create just and positive change through empowering partnerships and responsible action. While translating this vision to an action, we have been indebted to several organizations and individuals. I would like to thank all the ADRA works with development partners including the government of Nepal, multilateral and bilateral organizations, ADRA International and ADRA supporting oces, consortium partners, people in poverty implementing partner NGOs and people we worked with throughout the year and ADRA and distress to Nepal colleagues for their continuous support and commitments.

  • STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal
    STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal Order number: AID-367-O-16-00004 March 12, 2017 Anders Eklund Worldwide Rehabilitation Ltd. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nepal, like other countries in the region, has a substantial number of people who need physical rehabilitation. The 10-year civil conflict and the earthquake in April 2015 contributed to increasing that need. The Strengthening Rehabilitation in District Environs (STRIDE) program seeks to ensure that sustainable, accessible and quality physical rehabilitation services and community-based follow-up are provided for people with physical disabilities. The program is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Handicap International (HI) with sub-awards to five physical rehabilitation centers (PRCs) in four of the country's five regions. It was launched in January 2010 and is now in its second three-year extension (ending in January 2019). STRIDE plays an important role in the Nepali rehabilitation sector. To date, STRIDE PRCs have successfully provided physical rehabilitation services to more than 40,000 persons, including the delivery of more than 7200 prostheses and orthoses, 1200 wheelchairs and 4300 mobility aids. Services are normally center-based, but are also provided through outreach rehabilitation camps and field visits (so far reaching 52 of Nepal's 75 districts), with community disability workers (CDWs) conducting follow-up in the field. The main question that the present service coverage assessment sets out to answer is to what degree the physical rehabilitation services in Nepal, and in particular those of the five STRIDE PRCs, are able to meet the country's rehabilitation needs.
