  • Performance Evaluation of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay of Kawasoti Municipality in Nawalpur, Nepal

    Performance Evaluation of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay of Kawasoti Municipality in Nawalpur, Nepal

    IOSR Journal of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 7, Series 4 (July. 2020) 01-10 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Performance Evaluation of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay of Kawasoti Municipality in Nawalpur, Nepal Dr. Rajan Binayek Pasa Assistant Professor at Central Department of Rural Development Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Kathmandu ABSTRACT:This study analyzed performance evaluation of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay (ABCH) of Kawasoti Municipality. This study followed post-positivist paradigm and survey methodology by applying evaluation indicators such as relevancy, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability. The research issueshave been theorized from social capital, ecotourism, asset based community developmentand sustainability approach on development.The survey result shows that relevancy got highest mean value 3.9922 with std. deviation 0.90575 which is followed by impact mean value 3.7871 with std. deviation 0.78242 and sustainability mean value 3.6325 with std. deviation 0.79901. It signifies that majority of respondents are relatively satisfied with relevancy, impact and sustainability related variables. More so, effectiveness secured least mean value 3.5145 with std. deviation 0.85903 that is followed by efficiency mean value 3.6052 with std. deviation 0.78690. The value its self is not disagreed views of the respondents but from evaluation perspectives it requires more attention. However, ABCH has performed effectively due to the strong social capital, conservation and mobilization fund, good networks of physical assets, as well as quality leaderships that has brought positive impacts in community and social level. Finally, this study has high implications in the sector of improving the lives of people residing around bufferzone through the tourism activities.

    Tourism in Nepal: the Models for Assessing Performance of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay in Nawalpur

    NJDRS 51 CDRD DOI: https://doi.org/10.3126/njdrs.v17i0.34952 Tourism in Nepal: The Models for Assessing Performance of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay in Nawalpur Rajan Binayek Pasa, PhD Lecturer at Central Department of Rural Development Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Kathmandu Email for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract This study assesses performance of Amaltari Bufferzone Community Homestay that received best homestay award in 2017. For the survey study, the datacollected from 236 sample respondents were theorized based on social capital, ecotourism, asset-based community development and sustainability approach that are then supported by the empirical findings. An index was developed to describe the overall performance of the homestay by compositing five thematic indexes: relevancy, efficiency, effectiveness, impact, sustainability. The index value 92.65 from the range of minimum 48 and maximum 240 for the overall performance provides the strong quantitative evidence to answer the question “why did Amaltari receive the best award among”. The multiple regression model (R-square value 0.99) for overall performance also proves that independent variables describe the dependent variables by 99 percent. Among the independent variables relevancy and effectiveness indexes are more likely to describe dependent variable- the overall performance index. The evidence shows that Amaltari homestay has performed well due to the technical/financial supports of WWF, proper mobilization/utilization of conservation fund and homestay community fund, strong social capital, and quality leadership that has transforming the livelihoods of Tharu, Bote and Mushar indigeneous people. However, they have some concerns like waste management in bufferzone areas, reviving the cultural organizations for preserving and transmitting culture from generation to generation, minimizing the modernization and demonstrative effects due to the excessive flow of the tourists and upgrading road connectivity.

    A Case of Gaindakot As Fringe of Bharatpur Metropolitan City)

    Proceedings of 8th IOE Graduate Conference Peer Reviewed ISSN: 2350-8914 (Online), 2350-8906 (Print) Year: 2020 Month: June Volume: 8 Impacts of Urbanization on Land Use in Urban Fringe (A case of Gaindakot as fringe of Bharatpur Metropolitan City) Seema Pandey a, Ajay Chandra Lal b a, b Department of Architecture, Pulchowk Campus, IOE, TU, Nepal Corresponding Email: a [email protected], b [email protected] Abstract The urban fringe areas go through lots of transformations due to urbanisation but lack of proper planning and policies in such fringe areas leads to haphazard and unplanned growth, placing enormous pressures on natural resources, existing services and infrastructures. Bharatpur Metropolitan City is one of the fastest growing cities in Nepal which serves as commercial centre of Chitwan district. The city has been growing bigger and it will have its impacts on its fringe areas. Since migration rate is increasing in Bharatpur, this is likely to spread urban sprawl in adjoining areas, Gaindakot municipality being one of them.This paper uses multiple theoretical framework and qualitative research approach to find out the effects of urbanization on various aspects and the patterns of land use changes in Gaindakot with the increasing urbanisation over the years. Managing rapid urbanization poses challenges that require urgent policy attention. Otherwise, this may lead to rapid and uncontrolled sprawl; irregular, substandard, and inaccessible housing development; loss of open space, and decreased livability as in Kathmandu valley due to unplanned urban development. Keywords Urbanization, Urban fringe, Urban sprawl, Land use, Gaindakot (Nepal) 1. Background [5,6]. Nepalese cities have been urbanizing haphazardly.

    Groundwater Research in NEPAL for Tiger Conservation

    GROUNDWATER RESEARCH IN NEPAL FOR TIGER CONSERVATION A reconnaissance study to groundwater dynamics in an alluvial mega-fan in Bardiya National Park (Terai), focusing on the interaction between groundwater and the Karnali river. Author: Hanne. Berghuis. MSc. Thesis. Program: Earth, Surface and Water at Utrecht University. 1st Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Jasper Griffioen. 2nd Supervisor: Dr. Derek Karssenberg. Date: 28-06-2019. Student No.: 6190987. Contact: [email protected]. Photo credits: Esther Leystra (2019). Nepal: Bardiya National Park. Acknowledgement I’d like to thank my supervisor Jasper Griffioen for the opportunity to hydrologically explore Bardiya. His enthusiasm for the project was inspiring and his close involvement was very motivating. My friend Ewa van Kooten introduced me to this project. Together we travelled to Nepal for three months. Thanks to her I enjoyed every single day of our time in Bardiya. She often came up with new ideas for field measurements, creative ways to fabricate field equipment or interpretations for unexpected observations. I am grateful for the Himalayan Tiger Foundation (HTF), who took the initial initiative for hydrological research in Bardiya. I very much appreciate their efforts for the conservation of the wild tiger. During the meetings in the Netherlands and around the campfire in Bardiya with the members and co of HTF, I have learned and laughed a lot. Moreover, I like to thank them for getting us in touch with the National Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC). The staff of NTNC heartily welcomed us in Bardiya and at their office. They made us feel like a part of the NTNC-family by letting us join their festivals, dinners and campfires.

    ANNUAL2018 REPORT Message from the Country Director Last year, we commemorated the 30th anniversary of Adventist Development and Relief Agency- ADRA Nepal. One more year has been completed now. As the years pass on, we have felt added responsibility to serve people in Nepal. We had begun services in the year of 1987 with a focus in health sector. Today as per the needs of community and priority of the government of Nepal, we have expanded to multiple sectors. Currently, our programs are focused on Health, Livelihood, Disaster Risk Management and Education. Our initiatives have been closely connected to the long-term development priorities set by the government of Nepal that put emphasis on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the year 2018, we worked on dierent projects under four core themes ADRA Nepal has been working with as per its strategic direction. Some of the projects built on our previous initiatives targeted to the communities aected by the devastating earthquake of 2015 as it’s impacts on agriculture, education, and health sector remained critical. We work with people in poverty and distress to create just and positive change through empowering partnerships and responsible action. While translating this vision to an action, we have been indebted to several organizations and individuals.
