  • Population Situation Analysis of Nepal (With Respect to Sustainable Development)
    Population Situation Analysis of Nepal (With Respect to Sustainable Development) UNFPA Nepal 2017 Population Situation Analysis of Nepal Executive Summary The year 2014 marked the end of the successful implementation of a 20-year Programme of Action (PoA) endorsed by the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cairo, Egypt in 1994. In September 2014, in its resolution 65/234 on the review of the implementation of the PoA of the ICPD and its follow-up beyond 2014, the General Assembly underscored the need for a systematic, integrated and comprehensive approach to population and development, one that would respond to new challenges relevant to population and development and to the changing development environment, as well as reinforce the integration of the population and development agenda in global processes related to development1. The findings and conclusions of the operational review suggest a new framework for population and development beyond 2014 built on five thematic pillars: (i) health; (ii) dignity and human rights; (iii) place and mobility; (iv) governance and accountability; and (v) sustainability. At the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit on 25 September 2015, world leaders adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to tackle pressing global issues by 2030. The Government of Nepal, National Planning Commission (NPC) produced a national preliminary report in 2015 on the SDGs and is currently refining the targets and integrating them in national plans. This is expected to guide Nepal in translating SDGs into actions at all levels, national, regional and local. It contains indicators by goals and their quantitative benchmark data and targets.
