This report focuses on GIS based analysis of spatial patterns in the use of land-based environmental resources and cultural landscapes, with particular reference to the impacts of development interventions over the past 40 years in the Koshi Hills region of Eastern Nepal. GIS technology has long been an important tool for spatial and integrated analysis of environmental resources and when combined with several other non-spatial factors helps in judicial planning of development activities and policy decision making. The GIS database and mapping work for this research has been carried out by the Central Department of Geography (CDG), Tribhuvan University in Kathmandu, on a service contract basis with the GRM International and the CDG‟s Ms Puspa

  • Agricultural Transformation Around Koshi Hill Region: a Rural Development Perspective
    95 NJ: NUTA Agricultural Transformation around Koshi Hill Region: A Rural Development Perspective Tirtha Raj Timalsina Lecturer, Dhankuta Multiple Campus, Dhankuta Eastern Nepal Email for correspondence:[email protected] Abstract Agriculture is considered to be the basic segment and the backbone of developing economy. In the same way it is a prime and domonent sector of Nepalese rural livelihood. By considering this fact, the true value of rural development lies on the rapid transformation of existing agricultural sector. The aim of this study is to analyze the role of agricultural transformation for rural development of Koshi Hill Region (KHR) of eastern Nepal. Both the primary as well as secondary data and information have been used to obtain the required findings. The study reveals the fact that agriculture is inevitable for rural people and its transformation is essential for the development of rural areas and the nation as a whole. Including primarily to the road network, the development of infrastructure can play the detrimental role to change the backward and rural scenario of this country. Key words: Agricultural transformation, rural development, Koshi-Hill, essential, backbone, access. Conceptualization Agriculture is an important segment of traditional (feudal) economy, the transformation from feudalism to capitalism necessarily implies a transformation of agriculture (Lekhi, 2005). Thereby, agriculture is the prime occupation and also the backbone of most of the developing economies. The countries that are in the low profile of international comparision, no doubt they are moving on stagnat and backward agriculture with under or misutilized physical as well as human resources. The country which are backward and underdeveloped are not always facing the scarcity of resources but the techniques or to know how to manage the scarcely available means and reslurces is accepted as the principal understanding of development science.

  • Socio-Economic Background of the Women Workers in Guranse Tea Estate, Dhankuta
    DOI: https://doi.org/10.3126/tgb.v6i0.26170 Socio-economic Background of the Women Workers in Guranse Tea Estate, Dhankuta Anita Thapa1 Abstract Abundance of female workers in tea estate is common phenomena in the context of Nepalese tea industry. Women are main work force especially for leaf picking in any tea industry. So, the role of women participation is notable in this sector. This study focusses on socio- economic background of women workers in Guranse Tea Estate, Dhankuta. Both qualitative and quantitative methods have been used to collect data and information through questionnaire, interview, focused group discussion, key informant interview and observation. Various types and nature of tea workers are found in the tea industry. Different types of socio-economic background such as caste/ethnicity, age group, educational status, land ownership, income level etc. have been found in this tea estate. Most of the workers are represented from indigenous and ethnic group with 20-40 age group. Similarly, a large number of tea workers are illiterate and landless as well as having low level of income. Key words: Women worker, Guranse tea estate, tea plantation, participation, income Introduction Tea is an important commercial cash crop in Nepal. Tea farming in Nepal has appeared as a significant agro-based industry that has been contributing vastly to the national economy in terms of generating employment opportunity as well as raising the revenue in the present days (Karki, 1981). Tea plantation was started in 1863 from Ilam, its expansion in the real sense, took place only after the establishment of Nepal Tea Development Corporation Board (NTDCB) in 1966 when first Rana Prime Minister Janga Bahadur Rana came in power.

  • Nepal: Children Caught in the Conflict
    Previous Nepal Children caught in the conflict Nepal has been gripped by a brutal internal armed conflict between the security forces and Communist Party of Nepal (CPN) (Maoist) rebels for the last nine years, during which more than 12,000 people have died. Nepal’s civilians are caught between the two sides and are experiencing extreme violence and hardship. While the violence is affecting all sections of society, Nepali children are being impacted particularly harshly and in very specific ways. The most fundamental rights of children, provided by general human rights treaties and particularly by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), as well as by international humanitarian law treaties and rules of customary international law, have been violated. Children are being killed deliberately or in indiscriminate attacks, illegally detained, tortured, raped, abducted and recruited for military activities. Many Nepali children have for a long time experienced extreme poverty, lack of access to basic services, discrimination against girls and Dalit children, trafficking and sexual and commercial exploitation. The conflict is exacerbating many of these already existing abuses and eroding recent progress towards improving the lives of children. Children killed in the conflict According to children’s NGOs(1) at least 400 children have died in conflict related violence since 1996. However, with little information available from Nepal’s most remote districts and with many families inhibited from reporting killings due to widespread fear and no hope of justice, the true number of children killed is likely to be far higher. Extrajudicial executions by the security forces have been a constant feature of the conflict and the scale of these killings has increased significantly in the last year(2).

    Dinesh Adhikari/ Utilization of..... 17 Rupantaran : A Multidisciplinary Journal Vol. III : 17-23, March, 2020 ISSN : 2091-0061 Research Management Cell (RMC) Dhankuta Multiple Campus, Dhankuta Tribhuvan University, Nepal Utilization of Remittance for Rural People’s Needs: Study of Chhathar Rural Municipality of Dhankuta District Dinesh Adhikari1 Email: [email protected] Abstract Remittance is an enormous source of income for developing countries as well as Nepal. It contributes largely to the national economy in Nepal and it has also transformed the socio-economic lives of a large number of rural people. Number of remittance receiving household has reached more than 50 percent in the country. The remittances sent home by the migrants affect development of household, community and national levels. At the household level, remittances help to reduce poverty, improve living standard and attain educational needs. remittances could be used for entrepreneurship and productive investment which increases job opportunities and income of the people. Basic needs are fulfilled and released from landless or homeless condition by the use of remittance of rural people. Remittance inflows help to improve the lifestyle of rural people and their account position too. Many of the remittance used to consumption function or unproductive sector in rural area. It is suggested that policies and programs need to be developed for encouraging the utilization of remittances for productive use in order to promote rural growth. Key words: remittance, basic needs, repayment and lifestyle Introduction Remittance is a transfer of money by a foreign worker to an individual in his or her home country. The government’s statistics show that 74 percent Nepali workers employed in foreign labor markets are unskilled.

  • Sankhuwasabha
    DTMP Sankhuwasabha 2012 FOREWORD It is my great pleasure to introduce this District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) of Sankhuwasabha district especially for district road core network (DRCN). I believe that this document will be helpful in backstopping to Rural Transport Inffrastructure Sector Wide Approach (RTI SWAp) through sustainable planning, resouurces 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, and commercialization and industrialization of agriculture and other economic sectors, as well as harmonization of social centres. 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 reiinforcing 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 framewwork of available resources in DDC comprising both inteernal and external sources. Viewing these aspects, DDC Sankhuwasabha has prepared the DTMP by focusing mostt of the available resources into upgrading and maintenance of the existing road networks. This document is also bbeen assumed to be helpful in lobbing and fascinating the donor agencies through central government towards generating needy resources through basket fund approach. Furthermore, this document not solely will be supportive in avoiding pervasive duplication approach in resources allocation under the rural road network development sector but also will be helpful in supporting overall development management of the district.
