Food Security Bulletin - 21 United Nations World Food Programme FS Bulletin, November 2008 Food Security Monitoring and Analysis System Issue 21 Highlights Over the period July to September 2008, the number of people highly and severely food insecure increased by about 50% compared to the previous quarter due to severe flooding in the East and Western Terai districts, roads obstruction because of incessant rainfall and landslides, rise in food prices and decreased production of maize and other local crops. The food security situation in the flood affected districts of Eastern and Western Terai remains precarious, requiring close monitoring, while in the majority of other districts the food security situation is likely to improve in November-December due to harvesting of the paddy crop. Decreased maize and paddy production in some districts may indicate a deteriorating food insecurity situation from January onwards. this period. However, there is an could be achieved through the provision Overview expectation of deteriorating food security of return packages consisting of food Mid and Far-Western Nepal from January onwards as in most of the and other essentials as well as A considerable improvement in food Hill and Mountain districts excessive agriculture support to restore people’s security was observed in some Hill rainfall, floods, landslides, strong wind, livelihoods. districts such as Jajarkot, Bajura, and pest diseases have badly affected In the Western Terai, a recent rapid Dailekh, Rukum, Baitadi, and Darchula. maize production and consequently assessment conducted by WFP in These districts were severely or highly reduced food stocks much below what is November, revealed that the food food insecure during April - July 2008 normally expected during this time of the security situation is still critical in because of heavy loss in winter crops, year. -

People's Perceptions of Sanitation: Report Findings from Nepal
Report People’s perception on sanitation: Findings from Nepal This document provides people’s insights on why some sanitation interventions successes and others fail. The study showed that awareness among the people about the importance of sanitation and hygiene for better health was higher than expected. Therefore, ignorance of community members cannot be an excuse for not investing in sanitation. The results of the national research, which has been conducted as part of a regional study to gauge people’s perception about water, sanitation and hygiene, emphasis that active engagement of community members coupled with responsive leadership and a strong management ––including aspects of monitoring and evaluation –– is essential for the sustainability of any sanitation intervention. Access to sanitation is directly related with self-esteem. The production of this document was led by Mr Rabin Lal Shrestha from WaterAid in Nepal with support of Advocacy Team Members comprising of Ms Shikha Shrestha, Ms Anita Pradhan and Mr Govind Bahadur Shrestha. Colleagues from WaterAid’s partners in Nepal Federation of Drinking Water and Sanitation Users Nepal, Lumanti Support Group for Shelter and Nepal Water for Health contributed in the collection of cases. Mr Bipin Acharya supported in compiling the national report which was later edited by Mr Abhaya Joshi. This document should be cited as WaterAid in Nepal (2011) Report - People’s perception on sanitation: Findings from Nepal.

The Current Food Security Qtr
Nepal Food Security Bulletin Issue 25, July - October 2009 Situation Summary • The total number of food insecure people across Nepal is Figure 1. Percentage of population food insecure estimated to be 3.7 million, this represents approximately 16.4% of the rural population. WFP Nepal is feeding 1.6 17.0% million people which has had a significant impact on reducing 2009 winter drought this figure. 16.5% • July—August is typically a period of heightened food insecurity across Nepal. This year’s lean period was particularly severe in several areas of the country due to the 2008/09 winter 16.0% drought which led to reduced household food stocks and in the worst affected areas household food shortages. 15.5% • During the coming months, short term food security should continue to improve across most of Nepal as the current 15.0% harvest of summer crops (paddy, millet and maize) will be completed. However, the longer term outlook is that food security will decline within the next 6 months as summer crop 14.5% production at a national level is expected to be generally weak. Oct-Dec 09 Jan-Mar 09 Apr-Jun 09 Jul-Sep 09 Poor summer crop production is the result of late plantation (caused by late monsoon rains) combined with erratic and generally low rainfall during the monsoon. • Of the 476 households surveyed by WFP between July and September, summer crop losses of more than 30% have been experienced or are expected by more than 40% of households. Of critical concern is the situation in Bajura, Achham, Darchula, Jumla, Humla, Mugu, Dailekh, Rukum, and Taplejung where the main summer crops (paddy,millet and/or maize) have failed by 30-70% across multiple VDCs. -

No.: Kathmandu, Nepal Foreword Nepal has made significant progress in achieving good results in school enrolment by having more children in school over the past decade, in spite of the unstable situation in the country. However, there are still many challenges related to equity when the net enrolment data are disaggregated at the district and school level, which are crucial and cannot be generalized. As per Flash Monitoring Report 2014- 15, the net enrolment rate for girls is high in primary school at 93.6%, it is 59.5% in lower secondary school, 42.5% in secondary school and only 8.1% in higher secondary school, which show that fewer girls complete the full cycle of education. -
