School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science Signatures: Advisor:______________________________ Blair Orr Dean:______________________________ Margaret Gale Date:______________________________ ii PREFACE After completing my Bachelors degree, I knew I was not destined for the business career it was assumed I would follow. I moved to the Sierra Mountains in California and began working outdoors. It would have been difficult for me not to become impassioned about the environment there. When I found the Master’s International Program in Forestry at MTU, it seemed the program was created for me. I was ready to learn how to make a difference in both community development and natural resource conservation……. A Community Development Story: Once upon a time, a development office helped build grain storage sheds in a community. Field workers observed rats getting into the sheds and spoke with the villagers about killing the rats. The villagers did not believe it was worth the effort. The agency staff decided to give a small fee for each dead rat as an incentive to kill them. So, people began killing rats and getting paid by the office.

  • FUTURE ENERGY SCENARIOS of HOUSEHOLD in BHAKTAPUR DISTRICT Yogesh Bajracharya Abstract 1. Introduction 2. Research Objective
    FUTURE ENERGY SCENARIOS OF HOUSEHOLD IN BHAKTAPUR DISTRICT Yogesh Bajracharya Department of Electronics and Communications Engineering, Khwopa Engineering College, Libali-2, Bhaktapur, Nepal Abstract Energy plays a pervasive and critically important role in economic and social development. So, energy planning is important area of study. For Bhaktapur district energy plan, the survey was done by using the questionnaire. Total of 91 samples from rural area and 112 samples from urban area were taken to prepare primary database. The total energy demand was 952 TJ in rural area and 458 TJ in urban area in 2013. LEAP (Long-Range Energy Alternative Planning System) software was used for energy planning. Five scenarios, Business as Usual (BAU), Reference (REF), Accelerated Growth Rate (ACC), and Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL) in REF and ACC case scenarios were developed. Total energy demand in 2030 will be 2,748 TJ for BAU, 3,799 TJ for REF and 6,203 TJ for ACC case whereas total demand limits from 766 TJ and 1,241 TJ in SE4ALL scenario in REF and ACC case respectively. Again the total energy demand for 2045 will be 4,945 TJ, 9,104 TJ and 22,592 TJ for BAU, REF and ACC case respectively. Total energy demand for SE4ALL scenario will be 1,807 TJ and 4,381 TJ for REF and ACC case respectively. The GHG reduction up to 2045 by SE4ALL approach is 1.79 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent in REF and 3.54 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent in ACC Scenario. Keywords: Bhaktapur, LEAP, Energy, scenarios 1.

  • Brief Analysis of Preliminary Results
    Brief Analysis of Preliminary Results 1. Total number of establishments was 922,445 in Nepal. (Refer to Table 1 and Map 1.) The preliminary results of the National Economic Census 2018 (NEC2018) provide the current situation of establishments in Nepal in the recovery process after the huge earthquakes which occurred in April and May 2015. The figures were aggregated from the enumerator’s control forms (summary sheets) which were filled in by enumerators and checked by supervisors. Therefore, the preliminary results might slightly be different from the final results which are based on Form B and will be released around June 2019. There were 922,445 establishments in Nepal as of 14 April 2018 as the preliminary results of the NEC2018 implemented by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS). The NEC2018 covered all areas in the country without exception and all establishments excluding the following establishments: non-registered establishments which belong to “Agriculture, forestry, and fishery” (Section A) of International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC) Rev. 4; and all those establishments which belong to “Public administration and defense; compulsory social security” (Section O), “Activities of household as employers” (Section T), and “Activities of extraterritorial organizations and bodies” (Section U) of ISIC. In addition, Mobile establishments were also excluded. These exclusions are in accordance with international common practices in economic censuses. (Refer to Outline and Appendix 2.) Nepal has 922,445 establishments and the number of establishments per 1,000 persons is 31.6 establishments. As compared with other countries, Japan has 5.8 millions and 45.4; Indonesia 26.7 millions and 104.6; Sri Lanka 1.0 million and 50.3; and Cambodia 0.5 million and 34.6; respectively.

Keywords: Place marketing, local governance, socio-economic development Introduction Governance as a composite function of the state, private sector and civil society. Governance includes the state, but transcends it by taking in the private sector and society. All three are critical for sustaining human development. The state creates a conducive political and legal environment. The private sector generates jobs and income. And civil society facilitates political and social interactions (Mehata, 1998). Local Government is a confluence of two philosophical 'self-government' and 'good' government. Self-government is both a psychological and pragmatic necessity.
