Date of submission: February 27, 2018 (Sukriti Koirala) iv Abstract The nutritional status of school children influences their health, intellect, and subsequently their educational achievement. Yet, school children are not usually included in health and nutrition surveys. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 274 students; 137 students from each private and public schools in Babiya VDC, Sunsari to assess and compare the nutritional status of primary level school children and to determine the associated factors. Weight and height of students were measured using standard instruments and semi-structured questionnaires were administered to parents or care takers to assess the factors affecting nutritional status of children. Information about food consumption was collected by 24 hour dietary recall method. Prevalence of malnutrition was determined based on WHO classification and food composition table was used to calculate the nutrients contents. The survey data were analyzed using WHO Anthro Plus version 1.0.4 and SPSS 20.0. Chi-square test was used to identify the associated factors of malnutrition. In private schools, 10.2% children were stunted (2.2% severely stunted and 8.0% moderately stunted) and 28.4% were thinned (5.1% severely thinned and 23.3% moderately thinned). In public schools, 27% children were stunted (2.9% severely stunted and 24.1% moderately stunted) and 26.3% were thinned (6.6% severely thinned and 19.7% moderately thinned). The prevalence of stunting was higher in female students in both private and public schools. Thinness was more prevalent in male students of private schools whereas its prevalence was equal in both genders in public schools. Gender (p=0.013), adequacy of protein (p=0.000), adequacy of calorie (p=0.037) and age of mother (p=0.007) of private school children were significantly associated with stunting. While in public schools, birth weight of children (p=0.013) and knowledge of mother about malnutrition (p=0.014) were significantly associated with stunting. Knowledge about malnutrition of mothers (p=0.012) was found to be significantly associated with thinness in private school children whereas caste (p=0.01) was found to be significantly associated with thinness in public school children. v Contents Approval Letter .............................................................................................................. iii Acknowledgements ......................................................................................................... iv Abstract ............................................................................................................................ v List of Tables .................................................................................................................... x List of Figures ................................................................................................................. xi List of Abbreviations .................................................................................................... xiii 1 Introduction ........................................................................................................... 1-4 1.1 Background .......................................................................................................... 1 1.2 Statement of problem ........................................................................................... 2 1.3 Objectives ............................................................................................................ 3 1.3.1 General objective........................................................................................... 3 1.3.2 Specific objectives......................................................................................... 3 1.4 Research questions ............................................................................................... 4 1.5 Significance of the study ...................................................................................... 4 1.6 Limitations ........................................................................................................... 4 1.7 Assumptions ......................................................................................................... 4 2 Literature review ................................................................................................. 5-21 2.1 Nutrition ............................................................................................................... 5 2.2 Malnutrition ......................................................................................................... 5 2.3 Forms of malnutrition .......................................................................................... 5 2.4 Causes of malnutrition ......................................................................................... 6 2.5 Malnutrition and infection cycle .......................................................................... 8 2.6 Nutritional status .................................................................................................. 9 2.6.1 Factors affecting nutritional status ................................................................ 9 vi 2.6.2 Nutritional requirements ............................................................................. 12 2.6.3 Methods of assessment of nutritional status ................................................ 13 2.6.4 Nutritional status indicators ........................................................................ 15 2.7 Nutritional status of Nepal ................................................................................. 17 2.8 Causes of low nutritional status in school children in developing countries ..... 17 2.9 Literature review from previous studies ............................................................ 18 3 Methods and

  • District Transport Master Plan (DTMP)
    Government of Nepal District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development Department of Local Infrastructure Development and Agricultural Roads (DOLIDAR) District Development Committee, Morang February 2013 Prepared by the District Technical Office (DTO) for Morang with Technical Assistance from the Department of Local Infrastructure and Agricultural Roads (DOLIDAR), Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development and grant supported by DFID i FOREWORD It is my great pleasure to introduce this District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) of Morang district especially for district road core network (DRCN). I believe that this document will be helpful in backstopping to Rural Transport Infrastructure Sector Wide Approach (RTI SWAp) through sustainable planning, resources mobilization, implementation and monitoring of the rural road sub-sector development. The document is anticipated to generate substantial employment opportunities for rural people through increased and reliable accessibility in on- farm and off-farm livelihood diversification, commercialization and industrialization of agriculture sector. In this context, rural road sector will play a fundamental role to strengthen and promote overall economic growth of this district through established and improved year round transport services reinforcing intra and inter-district linkages . Therefore, it is most crucial in executing rural road networks in a planned way as per the District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) by considering the framework of available resources in DDC comprising both internal and external sources. Viewing these aspects, DDC Morang has prepared the DTMP by focusing most of the available resources into upgrading and maintenance of the existing road networks. This document is also been assumed to be helpful to show the district road situations to the donor agencies through central government towards generating needy resources through basket fund approach.

ALL CHILDREN IN SCHOOL Global Initiative on Out-of-School Children © UNICEF Nepal/2016/NShrestha NEPAL COUNTRY STUDY JULY 2016 Tel.: Government of Nepal MINISTRY OF EDUCATION Singha Durbar Ref. 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.
