The team thanks Andy Murray, Craig Irwin, Nina Schuler, Gareth Weir and Benjamin Zeitlyn from DfID for their support in establishing and managing the grant. The study was conducted by a team from the World Bank, led by Thomas Walker, with Hanan Jacoby, Yasuhiro Kawasoe, Upasana Khadka, Jui Shrestha and Savant Shrestha, and under the guidance of Pablo Gottret and Stefano Paternostro. Inputs and comments on the study design were also received from Yasuhiko Matsuda, Jyoti Pandey, Jasmine Rajbhandary, Emmanuel Skoufias, Sailesh Tiwari, Hiroki Uematsu and Gabriel Aguirre. Suravi Bhandary, Soyesh Lakhey, Ami Shrestha and Anupama Shrestha provided excellent assistance in finalizing the report.

The authors are also grateful for the support and advice of the Nepal country team, in particular Takuya Kamata, Faris Hadad-Zervos, Bigyan Pradhan and Roshan Bajracharya. We are immensely grateful to the households who participated in the survey—in all three survey rounds in most cases. Their willingness to be interviewed and the assistance they provided to the field teams made the survey a success. We also thank the Government of Nepal for its support, especially the National Planning Commission, which provided letters of introduction for the field team, the Central Bureau of Statistics, which provided the sampling frame and advice on sampling, and the Nepal National Reconstruction Authority, which shared data on earthquake grant recipients.

The survey covered 6,000 households in rural and peri-urban areas nationwide. The objective of the survey was to better understand the exposure of households to major natural and socio- economic shocks, their means of coping with these shocks, and the impact of shocks on household welfare. While most households appear to be able to withstand a range of smaller shocks to assets and income, larger and more covariate shocks continue to pose a major risk to household assets, food security and overall welfare. These effects persist for up to two years following the shock. Our findings point to the importance of having established formal social assistance to help the chronically poor build their resilience, and assist all households to cope in the event of major shocks. Frequency and Size of Shocks Almost 90 percent of households reported at least Figure 1. Frequency of Shocks by Type one shock during the study period. Each year, on Earthquake average one in three households was affected by a Flood and landslide shock.

Forty-four percent of the population in Humla and Bajura are reportedly facing a high level of food insecurity. Other districts with households that are facing a high level of food insecurity are Mugu, Kalikot, Rukum, Surkhet, Achham, Doti, Bajhang, Baitadi, Dadeldhura and Darchula. These households have both very limited food stocks and limited financial resources to purchase food. Most households are coping by reducing consumption, borrowing money or food and selling assets.

    Food Security Bulletin - 21 United Nations World Food Programme FS Bulletin, November 2008 Food Security Monitoring and Analysis System Issue 21 Highlights Over the period July to September 2008, the number of people highly and severely food insecure increased by about 50% compared to the previous quarter due to severe flooding in the East and Western Terai districts, roads obstruction because of incessant rainfall and landslides, rise in food prices and decreased production of maize and other local crops. The food security situation in the flood affected districts of Eastern and Western Terai remains precarious, requiring close monitoring, while in the majority of other districts the food security situation is likely to improve in November-December due to harvesting of the paddy crop. Decreased maize and paddy production in some districts may indicate a deteriorating food insecurity situation from January onwards. this period.

I would like to thank WWF and all consortium partners (CARE, NTNC, and FECOFUN) for submitting the updated M&E Plan. The revised M&E Plan is consistent with the approved Annual Work Plan and the Program Description of the Cooperative Agreement (CA). This updated M&E has added/revised/updated targets to systematically align additional earthquake recovery funding added into the award through 8th modification of Hariyo Ban award to WWF to address very unexpected and burning issues, primarily in four Hariyo Ban program districts (Gorkha, Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot) and partly in other districts, due to recent earthquake and associated climatic/environmental challenges. This updated M&E Plan, including its added/revised/updated indicators and targets, will have very good programmatic meaning for the program’s overall performance monitoring process in the future.
