The food security situation in the flood affected districts of Eastern and Western Terai remains precarious, requiring close monitoring, while in the majority of other districts the food security situation is likely to improve in November-December due to harvesting of the paddy crop. Decreased maize and paddy production in some districts may indicate a deteriorating food insecurity situation from January onwards. this period.

  • The Kamaiya System of Bonded Labour in Nepal
    Nepal Case Study on Bonded Labour Final1 1 THE KAMAIYA SYSTEM OF BONDED LABOUR IN NEPAL INTRODUCTION The origin of the kamaiya system of bonded labour can be traced back to a kind of forced labour system that existed during the rule of the Lichhabi dynasty between 100 and 880 AD (Karki 2001:65). The system was re-enforced later during the reign of King Jayasthiti Malla of Kathmandu (1380–1395 AD), the person who legitimated the caste system in Nepali society (BLLF 1989:17; Bista 1991:38-39), when labourers used to be forcibly engaged in work relating to trade with Tibet and other neighbouring countries. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Gorkhali and Rana rulers introduced and institutionalised new forms of forced labour systems such as Jhara,1 Hulak2, Beth3 and Begar4 (Regmi, 1972 reprint 1999:102, cited in Karki, 2001). The later two forms, which centred on agricultural works, soon evolved into such labour relationships where the workers became tied to the landlords being mortgaged in the same manner as land and other property. These workers overtimes became permanently bonded to the masters. The kamaiya system was first noticed by anthropologists in the 1960s (Robertson and Mishra, 1997), but it came to wider public attention only after the change of polity in 1990 due in major part to the work of a few non-government organisations. The 1990s can be credited as the decade of the freedom movement of kamaiyas. Full-scale involvement of NGOs, national as well as local, with some level of support by some political parties, in launching education classes for kamaiyas and organising them into their groups culminated in a kind of national movement in 2000.

I was amazed by the beauty of Nepal and its people. Besides being amazed, I have learned many valuable lessons, many people have influenced my life and I believe I have influenced theirs too. We have become each other’s guides and even friends during this academic adventure.

  • STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal
    STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal Order number: AID-367-O-16-00004 March 12, 2017 Anders Eklund Worldwide Rehabilitation Ltd. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nepal, like other countries in the region, has a substantial number of people who need physical rehabilitation. The 10-year civil conflict and the earthquake in April 2015 contributed to increasing that need. The Strengthening Rehabilitation in District Environs (STRIDE) program seeks to ensure that sustainable, accessible and quality physical rehabilitation services and community-based follow-up are provided for people with physical disabilities. The program is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Handicap International (HI) with sub-awards to five physical rehabilitation centers (PRCs) in four of the country's five regions. It was launched in January 2010 and is now in its second three-year extension (ending in January 2019). STRIDE plays an important role in the Nepali rehabilitation sector. To date, STRIDE PRCs have successfully provided physical rehabilitation services to more than 40,000 persons, including the delivery of more than 7200 prostheses and orthoses, 1200 wheelchairs and 4300 mobility aids. Services are normally center-based, but are also provided through outreach rehabilitation camps and field visits (so far reaching 52 of Nepal's 75 districts), with community disability workers (CDWs) conducting follow-up in the field. The main question that the present service coverage assessment sets out to answer is to what degree the physical rehabilitation services in Nepal, and in particular those of the five STRIDE PRCs, are able to meet the country's rehabilitation needs.

  • A Study Report on Disabilty Survey in Kailali District
    A Study Report on Disabilty Survey in Kailali District Chapter I: Introduction 1.1 Background Ecologically Nepal is a very diverse country with large areas of hilly and mountainous terrain. Due to this difficult terrain infrastructure tends to be very underdeveloped. Nepal is also one of the poorest countries in the world (In the UNDP HDI they are 136 out of 175 countries). In addition to this the population of Nepal includes many different ethnic groups and the majority of the population conforms to very specific caste hierarchies. There are wide discrepancies between different caste and ethnic groups in terms of their relative wealth and also their access to education. All of these factors inevitably affect the situation of disabled people in Nepal. According to WHO, Disabilities is an umbrella term, covering impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions. Impairment is a problem in body function or structure; an activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action; while a participation restriction is a problem experienced by an individual in involvement in life situations. Thus disability is a complex phenomenon, reflecting an interaction between features of a person‟s body and features of the society in which he or she lives. Disability and poverty are intricately linked. Disability causes poverty and poverty exacerbates disability – people with disabilities are among the poorest and most vulnerable. Global estimates indicate that at least ten percent of the world‟s population lives with some form of disability. In the South Asia Region, a vast number of people are disabled and lack basic support such as access to social safety nets, education, health services, and gainful employment.
