  • And Alternative Schooling Program
    VDC Workshop for ASP implementation from CASP experience Workshop Report Activity: VDC workshop on ASP Implementation rom CASP Experience Dates: 21st June 2009 (7 ASAR 2066) Venue: WTC, Tripureshwor, Kathmandu Hosted by: NFEC/JICA/CASP/ DEO/DDC 1 VDC workshop on ASP Implementation rom CASP Experience A REPORT Background of the Workshop Why Alternative Provision of Education is necessary in Nepal? Despite 85 years since educational promotion programs were launched in Nepal, formal education, which had been provided by GoN, remained incomplete. There are still a considerable number of school-aged children who cannot or do not go to school despite the governmental effort to make primary education universal under the Tenth Five-Year plan (2002-2007). About 280,000 of children are out of school, called “the hardest to reach group”. Meanwhile, Nepal government has been committed to international agreement to reach Education for All (EFA) goal (see The Box of “What is Education for All”?) namely after 2000. Particularly for children the main goal is for all to access to and complete, free and compulsory primary education of good quality. There are two major obstacles to prevent school-aged children from schooling, eventually making them Out–of-School Children. The first obstacle is for especially those living in remote villages situated in the middle mountainous place and the high place in the Himalaya Mountain. For these children, School Outreach Program (SOP) has been conducted. SOP offers small classes near village for the first to third grade students who cannot go to primary school. After the end of the third grade children will be transferred to formal schools that are normally far from the village they are live.

    Nepal Joint Submission to the UN Universal Periodic Review 37th Session of the UPR Working Group Submitted 9 July 2020 Submission by CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation, NGO in General Consultative Status with ECOSOC And Freedom Forum CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Freedom Forum Participation [email protected] Lisa Majumdar +977-4102030/4102022 [email protected] www.freedomforum.org.np +41 (0)22 733 3435 www.civicus.org 1. Introduction 1.1 CIVICUS is a global alliance of civil society organisations (CSOs) and activists dedicated to strengthening citizen action and civil society around the world. Founded in 1993, CIVICUS has members in more than 180 countries. 1.2 Freedom Forum is an independent, non-governmental and not-for-profit CSO mainly working in the areas of freedom of information, expression and association, and media freedom and governance through research, evidence-based advocacy, policy review and dialogue, capacity development and field engagement. 1.3 In this document, the authors examine the Government of Nepal’s compliance with its international human rights obligations to create and maintain a safe and enabling environment for civil society. Specifically, we analyse Nepal’s fulfilment of the rights to the freedoms of association, peaceful assembly and expression and unwarranted restrictions on human rights defenders (HRDs) since its previous UPR examination in November 2015. To this end, we assess Nepal’s implementation of recommendations received during the 2nd UPR cycle relating to these issues and provide a number of follow-up recommendations. 1.4 During the 2nd UPR cycle, the Government of Nepal received three recommendations relating to the space for civil society (civic space).

Here in editorial context, I extend words of gratitude that express themselves, though they might have remained apparently unexpressed. All of your accepted / unaccepted self-reflections shall become collages on the canvas of the history assimilated in this anthology. Dear Feelers! Wherever and whenever questions evolve, the existential consciousness of man keeps exploring the horizon of possibilities for the right answer even without the ultimate support to fall back upon. Existential revelations clearly dwell on the borderline, though it might be in a clash. In the present contexts, at places, questions of Nepali identity, modernity, representativeness, poetic quality, mainstream or periphery, temporal boundaries and limitations of number evolve – wanted or unwanted. Amidst the multitude of these questions, Dancing Soul of Mount Everest has assumed this accomplished form in its attempt to pervade the entirety as far as possible.
