In case of Nepal, an easy access between the Capital City and Terai, the store-house of the country and is very necessary. To facilitate this promotion of an improved core road network, Government of Nepal has launched the Kathmandu Terai Fast Track Project. Many concerned personalities and sectors had considered this project to be number one in the list of seventeen projects of national pride declared by the government. The main objective of this study was to identify the impacts of proposed project implementation on physical, biological, socio-economic and cultural environment of the project area and propose mitigation measures to avoid or mitigate such impacts. Primary information collection and secondary data review was the source of data with cross sectional descriptive study design. Data was taken purposively in the project affected area. Length of 72.6 km fast track from Kathmandu – Lalitpur – Makawanpur and up to Nijgadh in Bara district to link with the East West Highway will be of four lanes with 50 m on each side.

  • Endline Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Survey in Kathmandu District Under Community-Based Alternative Schooling Programme (CASP)
    Final Report Endline Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Survey in Kathmandu District under Community-Based Alternative Schooling Programme (CASP) Submitted to Community-based Alternative Schooling Project (CASP) Non-formal Education Centre (NFEC) Sano Thimi, Bhaktapur, Nepal By Institute for Integrated Development Studies (IIDS) P O Box 2254, Kathmandu Phone: 00977-1-4371006/4378831 Fax: 00977-1-4378809 E-mail: [email protected] August 2009 Acknowledgements Children constitute the future of any country. Therefore, enhancing their access to education is a moral obligation of the state. Unfortunately, many children do not have such access since their parents and guardians either do not realise the value of education or cannot afford their education, or both. This survey captures the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) of parents and guardians in relation to their children’s education after the completion of pilot activities on operational models of community mobilization by Community-based Alternative Schooling Programme (CASP). The Institute for Integrated Development Studies (IIDS) wishes to express its gratitude to the Community-based Alternative Schooling Project (CASP) for entrusting this survey to it. It also wishes to express its thankful to Mr. Sushil Pandey, Mr. Laxman Khanal, Mr. Diwakar Awasti and Mr. Pramod Sharma, the Director, Deputy Director, Deputy Director, and Section Officer, respectively, of Non-formal Education Centre (NFEC) for providing the IIDS research team with the overall guidance to accomplish this study.

ALL CHILDREN IN SCHOOL Global Initiative on Out-of-School Children © UNICEF Nepal/2016/NShrestha NEPAL COUNTRY STUDY JULY 2016 Tel.: Government of Nepal MINISTRY OF EDUCATION Singha Durbar Ref. No.: Kathmandu, Nepal Foreword Nepal has made significant progress in achieving good results in school enrolment by having more children in school over the past decade, in spite of the unstable situation in the country. However, there are still many challenges related to equity when the net enrolment data are disaggregated at the district and school level, which are crucial and cannot be generalized. As per Flash Monitoring Report 2014- 15, the net enrolment rate for girls is high in primary school at 93.6%, it is 59.5% in lower secondary school, 42.5% in secondary school and only 8.1% in higher secondary school, which show that fewer girls complete the full cycle of education.

    J Nepal Health Res Counc 2009 Oct;7(15):69-75 Original Article Original Health Impact of Indoor Air Pollution Joshi HD,1 Pandeya R,2 Dhakal B3 1Nepal Health Research Council, Ramshahpath, Kathmandu, 2Central Department of Environmental Science, Kirtipur Kathmandu, 3Asia Network for Sustainable Agriculture and Bio-resources. ABSTRACT Background: The domestic smoke exposure increases the risk of a range of common and serious diseases. Further, association of exposure with chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive lung disease is quite well established in recent researches. This work was carried out to determine the health impact of indoor air pollution in rural hill region of Nepal. Methods: A cross-sectional study on health impact of indoor air pollution to exposed kitchen dwellers and children, was done using random sampling method devised with probability proportion in Malikarjun Village Development Committee, Nepal. This study was conducted in two phases, in first phase. Adult kitchen dwellers were assessed for prevalence of respiratory disorder while in second phase, during three months Acute Respiratory Infection episodes of children below two years were recorded. Results: Eight kinds of respiratory ailments and related symptoms were prevalent in adult respondents of 42 households. Cough phlegm, breathlessness, wheezing, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchial asthma were significantly varied with higher exposure category (P<0.05) and smoking habit (P<0.01). Peak expiratory flow rate PEFR results significantly varied with both smoking habit and exposure level both in male and female (P<0.01). Correlation analysis denoted higher prevalence of diseases and symptoms in smokers (r = 0.464; P<0.01).
