Over the last three decades, the number of species has been decreasing due to infrastructure developments- roads, hydropower’s. Reportedly, 277 species of plants 24 species of mammals and 37 species of birds were recorded in 2003 has come down to 244 species of plants, 20 species of mammals and 32 species of birds only in the present study. It has led mis-balance between biodiversity conservation and livelihood strategy. The present paper tries to discuss on overview of plant and animal diversity between 2003-2012, common relationship between bio-diversity resources and their implication in the livelihood, conservation issues and their threats. The findings of the work are based on the fieldwork carried out field survey between 2003 and 2012. Key words: Biodiversity, development interventions, plant species, mammals and agriculture. Introduction Biological Diversity in Nepal is closely linked to livelihoods of many people and their economic development, and touches upon agricultural productivity and sustainability, human health and nutrition, indigenous knowledge, gender equity, building materials, climate, water resources and aesthetic and cultural well being of the society (MOFSC, 2002). Therefore, in addition to terrestrial biodiversity, it also covers marine and other aquatic biodiversity as well. As such, biodiversity means richness and variety of living things in the world as a whole or any location within it. -

Annual Report
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. I would like to thank all the ADRA works with development partners including the government of Nepal, multilateral and bilateral organizations, ADRA International and ADRA supporting oces, consortium partners, people in poverty implementing partner NGOs and people we worked with throughout the year and ADRA and distress to Nepal colleagues for their continuous support and commitments. -
STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal
STRIDE Service Coverage Assessment USAID, Nepal Order number: AID-367-O-16-00004 March 12, 2017 Anders Eklund Worldwide Rehabilitation Ltd. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nepal, like other countries in the region, has a substantial number of people who need physical rehabilitation. The 10-year civil conflict and the earthquake in April 2015 contributed to increasing that need. The Strengthening Rehabilitation in District Environs (STRIDE) program seeks to ensure that sustainable, accessible and quality physical rehabilitation services and community-based follow-up are provided for people with physical disabilities. The program is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Handicap International (HI) with sub-awards to five physical rehabilitation centers (PRCs) in four of the country's five regions. It was launched in January 2010 and is now in its second three-year extension (ending in January 2019). STRIDE plays an important role in the Nepali rehabilitation sector. To date, STRIDE PRCs have successfully provided physical rehabilitation services to more than 40,000 persons, including the delivery of more than 7200 prostheses and orthoses, 1200 wheelchairs and 4300 mobility aids. Services are normally center-based, but are also provided through outreach rehabilitation camps and field visits (so far reaching 52 of Nepal's 75 districts), with community disability workers (CDWs) conducting follow-up in the field. The main question that the present service coverage assessment sets out to answer is to what degree the physical rehabilitation services in Nepal, and in particular those of the five STRIDE PRCs, are able to meet the country's rehabilitation needs.
