  • Tor for Service Providers
    UNITED NATIONS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME Terms of Reference for implementation of COVID-19 Response and Socio-Economic Recovery Projects for Implementing Partners (service providers/ NGOs) 1. BACKGROUND The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and its aftermath poses severe challenges for Nepal’s economy and the livelihoods of the population. Nepal is ranked as among the most vulnerable economies in the Asia-Pacific region, with a continued heavy reliance on agriculture and a majority of the economically active population engaged in the informal economy. The economy is also, to a large extent, dependent on the tourism and construction sectors, as well as remittances from migrant workers. The decline of the tourism and hospitality sectors, suspension of construction activities, declining remittances, potential for food and fuel shortages, and the return of migrant workers can cumulatively render a large section of Nepal’s population highly vulnerable. With weak social protection systems with limited social assistance or social insurances, the poor and vulnerable households will bear the brunt of the slowing down of economic progress in Nepal. The socio-economic aspects of the COVID-19 crisis will lead to increased challenges for many groups in precarious employment situations, including migrant workers and their families, informal labourers and daily wage workers, small businesses, and rural communities, due to potential loss of employment, debt obligations, travel restrictions, inflation, and food and fuel shortages. Conditions for already excluded groups will also worsen. These include, for example, elderly, unemployed, persons with disabilities, Dalits, religious and ethnic minority groups, disadvantaged women (single parents, single-headed households, women victims of gender-based violence (GBV)), disadvantaged children (neglected children, children from low income households, children subject to abuse), informal/undocumented workers, LGBTIQ persons and unemployed youth.

FREED BONDED LABOUR IN THE FAR WESTERN TARAI/29 FREED BONDED LABOUR IN THE FAR WESTERN TARAI Narad Awasthi, PhD Associate Professor Department of Geography Education Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur Abstract The bonded labourers (Kamaiyas) were mostly from the indigenous Tharu ethnic group, who are still socially and economically disadvantaged. They have been surviving on the agricultural labour practice for centuries in the mid and far western Tarai of Nepal. This paper concentrates on the socio-economic and demographic background and means of livelihood of the freed Kamaiyas in Kanchanpur district of the far western development region of Nepal. For study purpose, 55 heads of household were selected from Krishnapur, Daijee VDCs and Bhimdatta municipality. All of them were from the Tharu community. They were from 20-55 years of age group and average age of the freed Kamaiyas was 38 years. Educational background was unsatisfactory and they all were married. The Kamiyas were not well settled from the side of government. Therefore, they were compelled to change their continuous means of livelihood. The study shows that they have been employed in different sectors of economic activities. Agriculture wage labour, share cropping, non-agriculture wage labour, government and private services within and outside the country, carpentry, masonry and many other types of occupation have been conducted by the freed labour (Kamaiyas) in the study area. They were economically in the worst condition and the average income was only NRs 3400 per month. They have raised some concerning issues viz landlessness, education, employment and rehabilitation.

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.
