District Background Out of the total population of Nepal (26,494,509), 38 percent are children (CBS, 2011). Approximately 45 percent of children die before their 5th birthday whereas 21 percent are under weight. Only 84 percent children attend the schools after their 11th birthday. Child labor has also been the real issues in Nepal. About 25 percent girls and 17 percent boys work as the child labor. 51 percent of girls are married before 18 years old. Children remain to be a vulnerable sector of society. Dailekh District is located in Bheri Zone of the Mid-western Development Region of Nepal. It borders with Jajarkot district to the East, Achham district to the West, Kalikot to the North and Surkhet to the South. The district has four municipalities & seven rural municipalities, and two constituency areas. The total area of the district is 1,502 km2. The district lies mostly in the Mid-Hills. The lowest elevation point is 544 meter whereas the highest is 4,168 meter from mean sea level. Because of the elevation differences, the district has three different types of climate: tropical up to 1,000 m (16% of area), subtropical from 1,000-2,000 m (69%) and temperate above 2,000 m (15%). The annual rainfall is about 1,500 mm and temperatures vary from 4 ºC to 34 ºC. Subsistence agriculture, mainly small-scale livestock, is the main source of livelihood of the majority of the population (79%). Due to low level of agricultural production, the majority of the households face acute food shortages for a large part of the year. According to the National Census 2011, the total population of the district is 261,770 comprising with 48% female and 52% male residing in 48,915 households. Dailekh district has an average population density of around 174 people per square km. The average family size is 5.35. Life expectancy of the people is 58 years. The average literacy rate is about 48% (32% female and 65% male are literate). Dailekh district has a multi ethnic composition with Chhetri, Kami, Thakuri, Brahman, Magar, Damai, Sarki, Newar, and Sanyashi (Giri and Puri). The most common language is Nepali (98.98%) followed by Magar (0.46%) and others (0.56 %). Although accessibility to Dailekh is limited, this is improving rapidly. The district has access to the Karnali Highway (Surkhet-Jumla) which is currently being upgraded to bituminous standard by Department of Road (DOR). The DOR is also currently upgrading a 67 km feeder road between the district headquarters and Surkhet to bituminous standard. Mid-Hill highway is under construction. 2 Besides this, there are many cultural and traditional mal-practices prevailed in the district.
