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.

  • A 50Th Anniversary Report
    Memories and Meaning: A 50th Anniversary Report Peace Corps Nepal Group 17 December 2018 i Foreword In his November 2, 1960 speech at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, then- Senator John F. Kennedy proposed "a peace corps of talented men and women" who would dedicate themselves to the progress and peace of developing countries. This report explores the experiences and impacts of the 17th such group to be sent to the fifth poorest country in the world: Nepal. The year was 1968, a time of political and social turmoil in the United States; it was a time for taking sides in the struggle for or against peace, justice, and equality. Each of the 32 lives reported here was transformed dramatically, unpredictably, and irreversibly with respect to those moral choices and guiding human values, impacting their career paths, life partners, and enduring personal relations, inside Nepal and out. Taken together, these writers attest to an amazing diversity of backgrounds at the time of entrance into the Peace Corps. They were intellectuals; farmers; foresters; recent graduates in economics, business, political science, linguistics, math, history, psychology and philosophy; and teachers of English and agricultural science. But thanks to intensive training in pre- mechanized agriculture, four South Asian languages and Hindu culture in both Cactus Corners, California and Parwanipur, Nepal, they were transformed into a dedicated team of volunteers ─ open, willing to learn, courageous, sincere, energetic, and peace-loving ─ in a word, fundamentally good people equipped as well as at all possible for the challenges ahead. Those challenges saw a total of 76 of us scattered far and wide into single postings across the taraai and middle hills of a 9-million-person country (see map, page 7).

Rokaya Secretary Mr. Bishal Khanal 4 Foreword Slavery had long been found exploitative and was therefore, disbanded by international community. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights also disapproved it as against life of dignity and contrary to norms of justice and equality .Even then; there is slavery like practices which are subversively carried out through trafficking of women and children or unsafe labour migration to foreign countries. Men, women and children are vulnerable to this modern form of slavery due to economic, social, cultural and political environment of the country in which they live. Comparatively, it is women and girl children who are more vulnerable and seriously affected. The cycle of Trafficking in Persons in the perspective of origin, transit and destination affects all countries around the world. Thus, Trafficking in Persons is a global issue.
