ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Improving the state of education in Nepal requires good policy and leadership. But it also requires a citizenry that is concerned about education and actively seeks to understand its issues and challenges. A citizen-led assessment (CLA) like ASER depends on the efforts of many volunteers. So we must begin by thanking the most important people in any CLA, the field volunteers that went walking from house-to- house and gathered data. We are very grateful to the 4844 youths from 136 palikas that gave up a week of their time to run this assessment. We would like to thank the Chief Minister, Ministers, Secretaries, Officers, Mayors and elected representatives of all the local governments in province 2 for their commitment to evidence-based decision making. We hope the evidence produced by this CLA will encourage mayors and local municipal governments to engage and trust the youth in their areas to gather evidence on important matters concerning local governance. We are also grateful to the various community organizations and schools that supported us in recruiting volunteers, hosting orientations and trainings, providing training and recruitment venues, and allowing us to store the large volume of paper needed to survey 45,550 households. We express our gratitude to all the civil society leaders from each of these institutions who welcomed us and made their personnel and resources available to us. We are very grateful to our Master Trainers for their critical work in making the CLA successful. The 136 master trainers volunteered 4 weeks of their time to adopt the multi-step training process. First, they learned how to conduct a CLA themselves, then they recruited the volunteers in each ward of Province 2, then taught the CLA methods to those local volunteers and finally supervised the data collection process to ensure the data was valid. We acknowledge the support from the training team that coached and mentored the Master Trainers. We would like to thank key members from the training team, Pavitra Bahadur Gautam, Prabesh Raj Joshi, Kriti Shree Giri, Anuradha Shrestha and Samjhana Balami, for their time and efforts to make the Master Trainers’ Training fruitful. Officers from the Central Bureau of Statistics, especially the Household Sampling Unit, and Statisticians from Tribhuvan University and Kathmandu University School of Management volunteered their time and expertise to set the assessment methodology. We are especially grateful to Anaraj Tiwari, Balkrishna Khadka, and Chandra KC for helping us finalize the assessment methodology. Without their support, it would not have been possible for us to navigate the many statistical and technical issues a CLA of this scale possesses. The assessment tools and survey questionnaires were developed with support from many intellectuals and experts. Ketan and Winny from the PAL Network Secretariat were instrumental during the final stages of building the Minimum Proficiency Framework and the ASER Assessment tools. Sincere thanks to Shyam Acharya from the Education Review Office, Ministry of Education; Prof. Ramesh Bhattarai, head of Nepali Curriculum Experts Committee at Curriculum Development Center; professors from Tribhuvan University; school teachers from Brihaspati Vidya Sadan (Kathmandu), Jana Uddhar Secondary School (Kathmandu), Churiyamai Secondary School (Makawanpur) and Kalika Secondary School (Sindhupalchowk) for their - 1 - support in developing the ASER assessment tools. Kumar Thapa, Pradip Giri, Keshab Khatiwada, Mamata Shankar Joshi, Anjila Shrestha, and Rajan Maharjan deserve special thanks for supporting our pilot test in Kathmandu, Makwanpur, Sindhupalchok and Sindhuli. Our designer Amogh Dhakhwa and printer Ram Kaji Khadgi supported us in the layout and production of the material we needed to conduct this assessment. Sabhyata Timsina from the Karkhana research team paid careful attention to minimize errors and simplify the language. We are grateful for their diligence and commitment. We also wish to thank the ASER India team and the PAL Network for their support over the years. We wish to extend a very special thanks to Ranajit Bhattacharya, Sujit Kumar and Vikash Kumar from the ASER India team who have been instrumental in the success of this assessment. They ensured that all of us in Nepal had opportunities to learn from ASER India’s 14 years of experience in citizen-led assessment. Nothing in this world is possible without a great team and we were lucky to have in our team Kshitiz Basnet, and other supporting hands from Street Child Nepal; Pramila Bisunke and Samjhana Balami from ASER Nepal; and Nawal Kishor Yadav, Dineshwar Shah, and several other encouraging friends from Aasaman Nepal who support our mission to ensure that every Nepali child learns. This assessment has been possible from the support from UK Aid Direct, and their support has been crucial in making this assessment happen.

The initiative was supported by Street Child Nepal’s Breaking the Bonds program (funded by DFID). The assessment work was jointly implemented by Street IChild Nepal, AASAMAN and ASER Nepal. Citizen assessors visited all wards in the 136 local government units or palikas in Province 2. In each ward, they visited households selected through random sampling. A total of 44,000 households were surveyed. In each surveyed household, basic demographic data was collected from all household members. Household members from age 5 to 16 were given an one-on-one oral learning assessment test in three areas - English literacy, Nepali literacy and Math. The testing tools for each of the three assessments were pegged to minimum competency at the 3rd grade level of the national curriculum. The consultative report is being released to start a conversation on the role citizen-led assessments can play in supporting the education ecosystem and education policy-making in Nepal. While some discussion about the results of assessments are appropriate, we encourage stakeholders to focus the discussion on the role a CLA could play in the education ecosystem focusing on the current learning levels and potential interventions/methodologies to address the learning crisis. The ASER has a rich history across South Asia of engaging youth, local governments and policy-makers around the common issue of learning outcomes. CLAs have also demonstrated value across the Global South. But as these efforts are new to Nepal, discussions on the specific forms they should take in Nepal are necessary. - 5 - This report aims to engage stakeholders on: 1. the aims of a CLA and the appropriateness of those aims in Nepal 2. identifying actors who may benefit from a CLA’s easy to execute methodology 3. locating a Nepali ASER within the wider set of learning data being generated, such as NASA 4. Identifying where ASER findings could feed into the policy-making and program development process Based on input provided during the consultative phase, a final analysis of the ASER Pradesh 2 data will be conducted. A final report will follow. QUESTIONS FOR CONSULTATION 1. How can a low-stakes, orally conducted, household-based assessment add to existing data on learning? Additionally, does an oral assessment give us more details on students who are recorded as failing on written exams because they lack foundational literacy and math skills? 2. Should special emphasis be given to improve the visibility of Out of School children whose learning outcomes are significantly worse than their in-school peers? 3. Would an assessment that is easy to execute and understand be useful to the subnational government or CSOs at the local level? Local governments now have greater responsibilities in the education

  • Government of Nepal Ministry of Forests and Environment Nepal
    Government of Nepal Ministry of Forests and Environment Nepal Forests for Prosperity Project Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) March 8, 2020 Executive Summary 1. This Environment and Social Management Framework (ESMF) has been prepared for the Forests for Prosperity (FFP) Project. The Project is implemented by the Ministry of Forest and Environment and funded by the World Bank as part of the Nepal’s Forest Investment Plan under the Forest Investment Program. The purpose of the Environmental and Social Management Framework is to provide guidance and procedures for screening and identification of expected environmental and social risks and impacts, developing management and monitoring plans to address the risks and to formulate institutional arrangements for managing these environmental and social risks under the project. 2. The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to improve sustainable forest management1; increase benefits from forests and contribute to net Greenhouse Gas Emission (GHG) reductions in selected municipalities in provinces 2 and 5 in Nepal. The short-to medium-term outcomes are expected to increase overall forest productivity and the forest sector’s contribution to Nepal’s economic growth and sustainable development including improved incomes and job creation in rural areas and lead to reduced Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and increased climate resilience. This will directly benefit the communities, including women and disadvantaged groups participating in Community Based Forest Management (CBFM) as well and small and medium sized entrepreneurs (and their employees) involved in forest product harvesting, sale, transport and processing. Indirect benefits are improved forest cover, environmental services and carbon capture and storage 3. The FFP Project will increase the forest area under sustainable, community-based and productive forest management and under private smallholder plantations (mainly in the Terai), resulting in increased production of wood and non-wood forest products.

I would like to thank WWF and all consortium partners (CARE, NTNC, and FECOFUN) for submitting the updated M&E Plan. The revised M&E Plan is consistent with the approved Annual Work Plan and the Program Description of the Cooperative Agreement (CA). This updated M&E has added/revised/updated targets to systematically align additional earthquake recovery funding added into the award through 8th modification of Hariyo Ban award to WWF to address very unexpected and burning issues, primarily in four Hariyo Ban program districts (Gorkha, Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot) and partly in other districts, due to recent earthquake and associated climatic/environmental challenges. This updated M&E Plan, including its added/revised/updated indicators and targets, will have very good programmatic meaning for the program’s overall performance monitoring process in the future.
