Financing the Higher Education in Nepal Final Report Financing the Higher Education in Nepal Submitted to: South Asia Network of Economic Research Institutes (SANEI) Pakistan Institute of Development Economics Islamabad, Pakistan Submitted by: Centre for Economic Development and Administration (CEDA) Tribhuvan University Kirtipur, Kathmandu, Nepal E-mail: [email protected] Telephone: 00977-1-4331721 Fax: 00977-1-4331722 January, 2007 STUDY TEAM Dr. Durga Lal Shrestha : Team Leader Cum Economist Mr. Tritha Bahadur Manandhar: Education Expert Mr. Krishna Man Manandhar: Statistician Mrs. Shakila Singh: Research Associate Mr. Indra Kumar Shrestha: Research Associate Ms. Subhechchha Shrestha: Data Analyst / Computer Programmer Acknowledgement To meet increasing rate of demand for higher education six universities and two specialized institutions at the university level have already been established and four other universities including two additional regional universities are in the process of opening. The faster development of higher education needs a lot of funds. The state funded universities namely TU and NSU are acutely facing the problem of cost recovery with highly influenced by the political intervention. The cost recovery position of other universities is also not at the satisfactory level. In this situation, the government of least developed countries like Nepal alone cannot meet the financial needs for higher education at the cost of other sectors' development. Ultimately, the private sector has to finance the higher education. Besides, the present day demand is the social inclusion in higher education i.e., increasing access for women, dalits, indigenous and backward people to the higher education. That’s why; higher education has now been treated as both social as well as economic goods and both public and private partnership is required for financing the higher education. Furthermore, the study team is grateful to South Asia Network of Economic Research Institutes (SANEI), Pakistan Institute of Development Economics, Islamabad, Pakistan for entrusting us and financing this study. The study team is also grateful to Dr. Ramesh Chitrakar, Executive Director of Centre for Economic Development and Administration (CEDA) for providing us opportunity to be involved in this study. Mrs. Laxmi Singh, Mr. Nayan Lamichhane, Mrs. Chitrakar, Mrs. Nilu Shrestha, Mrs. Subarna Shreshta and other CEDA staff deserve appreciations for full administrative support to the study team. Finally, I would like to thank all members of the study team, without their painful and hard work the study cannot be completed in this form.

  • Grandin Understanding Change Text Only
    Symposium on Music and Ritual in the Himalayas Department of Religious studies, Yale, November 2010 Understanding change in the Newar music culture: the bhajan revisited Ingemar Grandin Linköpings universitet, Sweden That a group of men gather to sing bhajan hymns is not something people appear to care very much about. It is just a part of everyday life. --picture 1-- This particular bhajan has its home in a neighborhood – twah – in the heart of the Newar town of Kirtipur, in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, not so very far from the great cities of Kathmandu and Lalitpur. The singers have their own room in a pati (resthouse), just inside the shrine to Ganadya, or Ganesh. --picture 2-- My paper here starts out from neighborhood bhajan singing. This type of cultural event, as we will see, is a good starting-point for exploring forms of change in Newar music-making. So let us stay with this particular bhajan session for a few more paragraphs! In certain respects, this is a social event where a group of friends and neighbors assemble to do something together. The man at the triangle, for instance, doesn’t sing much and the reason for his taking up this comparatively soft-sounding instrument seems to be that he doesn’t quite keep the time. Tea for a refreshment break is brought from a nearby shop, and more tea – cooked on an electric clay- stove inside the pati while the singing goes on – is taken before the party breaks up. Participation, rather than for instance musical accomplishment, is a key value in the event, and people invite each other to take turns at the harmonium and the nagara drum.

  • Journal of Newar Studies ISSN 1536-8661 Editorial 1131 Number-7 2010/11 Jwajalapā !
    Newāh Vijñāna Journal of Newar Studies ISSN 1536-8661 Editorial 1131 Number-7 2010/11 Jwajalapā ! Since the last issue of Newāh Vijñāna, there have been some monumental changes in the Newāh commu- nity worldwide, especially in the political field of Nepal. Most notably, on Dec 26, 2009, after centuries of struggle, we became witnesses to one of the most important historical moment in Nepal’s history as Newāh people from all walks of life assembled at Dasharatha Rangashālā, the national stadium of Nepal, to declare Newāh Autonomous State (NAS) under the Federal Republic Nepal. This declaration is to be endorsed by the Constituent Assembly formed after general election that took place in May 2008. However, the autono- mous state still needs a national mandate by the Constituent Assembly for it to be written under the New Constitution of Nepal. The struggle for recognition of Nepal Sambat is no longer a matter of dispute among the elite group; all Newāh supporters are in favor of Nepal Sambat. After all, it is the original calendar of Nepal. Historically Publisher speaking, Nepal Sambat fell into scrutiny for being a ‘Newāh’ Calendar to allow continuity of imported Intl. Nepāl Bhāshā calendar, Bikram Sambat. For decades, this has allowed for a misleading celebration of Nepali New year Sewā Samiti in foreign land by non-Newāh group of Nepalese community. The slogan ‘Nepal Sambat Rastriya Sambat’ had always been a thorny subject during the Panchayat period. It is the fall of Panchayat, as well as the Shah Center for Nepalese rulers, which has paved a way for Nepal Sambat to finally be recognized.

  • Roster of Trained Human Resources in Retrofitting of Private Houses in Nepal
    Government of Nepal National Reconstruction Authority Singhadurbar, Kathmandu Nepal ROSTER OF TRAINED HUMAN RESOURCES IN RETROFITTING OF PRIVATE HOUSES IN NEPAL March 2021 Government of Nepal National Reconstruction Authority Singhadurbar, Kathmandu Roster of Trained Human Resources in Retrofitting of Private Houses in Nepal March 2021 Roster of Trained Human Resources in Retrofitting of Private Houses in Nepal PREAMBLE Earthquake risk is one of the most significant threats to the safety of a population, its investments and its economy; thus, earthquake risk mitigation and reduction through the retrofitting of buildings is essential. As retrofitting is a relatively new concept to most stakeholders, training and demonstration will enhance a common understanding of retrofitting. To date, around 700 partially damaged houses have been retrofitted, using technologies such as the Strong Back approach and the Splint and Bandage approach. The enclosed roster contains detailed information on the builders and engineers who were trained on retrofitting approaches and practices during the retrofitting process of these buildings. This valuable information can be used to support retrofitting work at local levels in the future. Capacity building and demonstration ability is essential for our technical personnel, and these core competencies were enhanced through various trainings on retrofitting. Both engineers and local masons completed training in retrofitting technologies. More than 800 engineers received on the-job-training, whereas more than 2,600 received classroom-based training with field visits. Similarly, more than 2,200 local masons and builders were capacitated through trainings. The roster incorporates detailed information on all the personnel trained in 31 earthquake affected districts. This roster is a valuable resource to be used by all stakeholders who are working for the reconstruction at central and local levels.

  • Traditional, Folk, Fusion, and Confusion: Music and Change In
    Traditional, Folk, Fusion, and conFusion: Music and Change in the Newar Communities of Nepal Subhash Ram Prajapati A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Shannon Dudley, Chair Christina Sunardi David Henderson Ratna Maya Magarati Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music ©Copyright 2018 Subhash Ram Prajapati University of Washington Abstract Traditional, Folk, Fusion, and conFusion: Music and Change in the Newar Communities of Nepal Subhash Ram Prajapati Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Shannon Dudley Music This dissertation explores the musical changes in the Newar communities from the 1920s to 2018. For centuries, the indigenous people from Kathmandu, the Newars have been practicing predominantly Hindu and Buddhist culture, inviting comparison with India before the Mughal invasion of the sixteenth century. Since Nepal was never invaded by the Mughals, the scholars argue that the Newars and their music offer us a glimpse into an archaic South Asian culture. The Newar musical culture, which is often contemplated as untouched tradition that has been in practice for centuries, these days is undergoing a lot of rapid changes in content and the context mainly as a result of media, migration, and modernization. In a relatively short period of time, there has been a huge increase in women participation in traditional music, the caste barrier has been heavily relaxed and some traditional musicians have paved a way for commercialization. On the one hand, traditional and folk music has been revitalized in many communities through newly formed gender and caste inclusive music groups.
