Whilst many researches have focused on the biophysics of climate change, the social dimensions have been neglected at least until recently. This research focuses on the socio-economic aspects of climate change. Such types of studies are more important for policy implications compared to the bio-physical studies as factors like temperature and rainfall are beyond the immediate influence of the policy makers.

Abstract Information Structure and Coordination in Vegetable Supply Chains by Mahendra Prasad Khanal The purpose of this study on Nepalese fresh vegetable supply chains is to identify factors that impact on the environment external to these chains, information flows along them, and relationships between actors within them. It identifies the role that information structure plays in chain coordination, and so contributes to the emerging literature on this, while also providing policy insights for the Nepalese government. A theoretical framework was developed by incorporating principles of coordination theory, transaction cost economics and network theory, to postulate relationships between information structure and coordination in a supply chain. Empirical research on four Nepalese vegetable supply chains was conducted using an embedded multiple case study approach.

Box 1738, 3000 DR Rotterdam, The Netherlands. E-mail: [email protected] cTel Aviv University, Felsenstein Medical Research Center, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Ramat Aviv, Tel Aviv, Israel. This paper reports on two voluntary, contributory, contextualised, community-based health insurance (CBHI) schemes, launched in Dhading and Banke (Nepal) in 2011. The implementation followed a four-stage process: initiating (baseline survey), involving (awareness generation and engaging community in benefit-package-design), launch (enrolment and training of selected community members) and post-launch (viable claims ratio, settled within satisfactory time, sus- tainable affiliation). Both schemes were successful on four key parameters: effective planning; affiliation (grew from 0 to ~10,000) and renewals (>65 per cent); claims ratio (~50 per cent); and promptness of claim settlement (~23 days). This model succeeded in implementing CBHI with zero premium subsidies or subsidised health-care costs. The successful operation relied in large part on the fact that members trust that they can enforce this contract. Considerable insurance education and capacity development is necessary before the launch of the CBHI, and for sustain- able operations as well as for scaling. The Geneva Papers (2014) 39, 280–303.
