  • Covid-19 Nepal: Preparedness and Response Plan (Nprp)
    COVID-19 NEPAL: PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE PLAN (NPRP) April 2020 NPRP for COVID-19 | 2 COVID-19 Nepal: Preparedness and Response Plan (NPRP) Introduction The COVID crisis affecting the world today requires a level of response that goes beyond the capacity of any country. As the UN Secretary-General said: “More than ever before, we need solidarity, hope and the political will and cooperation to see this crisis through together”. The Government of Nepal is putting in place a series of measures to address the situation, but more needs to be done, and the international solidarity is required to ensure that the country is fully prepared to face the pandemic and address its impact in all sectors. The Nepal Preparedness and Response Plan (NPRP) lays out the preparedness actions and key response activities to be undertaken in Nepal, based on the trends and developments of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The plan outlines two levels of interventions; one that is the preparedness that should take place at the earliest possible and that constitutes an investment in Nepal’s health systems that will in any case benefit the people of Nepal, regardless of the extent of the COVID-19 pandemic in the territory. The second level is the effective response, across sectors, to an estimated caseload of 1500 infected people and 150,000 collaterally affected people. This can then be scaled up in case there is a vast increase in number of infected and affected people, beyond the original scenario of 1500 patients. Nepal is also vulnerable to natural disasters, including seasonal floods and landslides.

  • Parallel Report UPR Nepal FIAN 2
    Universal Periodic Review Violations of the Right to Food in Nepal Submission by FIAN International (July 2010) • Explanation of Organization The following information is submitted by FIAN International in Cooperation with FIAN Nepal in July 2010. FIAN, the Food-first Information and Action Network is an international human rights organization for the right to adequate food with consultative status at the United Nations. FIAN has 18th sections and coordinations in different countries and works in further countries together with partner organizations. FIAN International also has thousands individual members across the globe. FIAN Nepal is one of the national sections of FIAN International. • Summary The aim of the following report is to draw attention to the wide range of stakeholders on Right to Food violations, related to food access in Nepal. Many of these problems have existed for quite some time; some surfaced as early as 1970s. Yet, they have not been met with any solutions thus far. However, the International Human Rights treaties and other international law sources recognizing the Right to Food the state of Nepal has committed to, as well as its Interim Constitution, which was adopted in 2007, obligate the government to adopt measures to realize the right to adequate food in these cases. On May 14 th 1991 the South-Asian state of Nepal ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). In addition, Nepal has also ratified all other treaties, relevant to the Right to Food, such as the International Covenant in Civil and Political Rights, the Convention for the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women or the Convention on the Rights of the Child and adopted the FAO Voluntary Guidelines to support the progressive realization of the right to adequate food in the context of national food security.

  • Fate of Agricultural Areas of Kailali District of Nepal: a Temporal Land Use Land Cover Change (Lucc) Analysis
    The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XLIII-B3-2020, 2020 XXIV ISPRS Congress (2020 edition) FATE OF AGRICULTURAL AREAS OF KAILALI DISTRICT OF NEPAL: A TEMPORAL LAND USE LAND COVER CHANGE (LUCC) ANALYSIS. Niraj KC1, Lawaj Thapa1, Dericks Praise Shukla1* 1 School of Engineering, IIT Mandi, India ([email protected]; [email protected]) Commission III, WG III/7 KEY WORDS: Supervised Classification, LULC mapping, Temporal change analysis, Accuracy Assessment, Urbanisation ABSTRACT: Changes of agricultural land into non-agricultural land is the main issue of increasing population and urbanization. The objective of this paper is to identify the various land resources and its changes into other Land Use Land Cover (LULC) type. LANDSAT satellite data for 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2018 years of Kailali district Nepal was acquired for supervised LULC mapping and change analysis using ENVI 5.4 software. Sentinel-2 and Google earth satellite data were used for the accuracy assessment of the LULC map. The time-series data analysis from 1990-2000-2010-2018 shows major changes in vegetation and agriculture. The changes in LULC show that settlement and bare land is continuously increasing throughout these years. The change in land use and land cover during the period of 1990-2018 shows that the settlement area is increased by 204%; and agriculture is decreased by 57%. The fluctuating behavior of vegetation, agriculture and water bodies in which the areas decrease and increase over the selected periods is due to natural calamities and migration of the local population. This shows that human influence on the land resources is accelerating and leading to a deterioration of agricultural land.
