Page | 4 Exhibit 2 Statement of Work ENVISION is an eight-year program funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) that aims to assist national programs to combat neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The program supports the control and elimination of seven targeted NTDs, specifically lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis, three types of soil-transmitted helminths (STH; roundworm, hookworm, whipworm), and trachoma. ENVISION aims to contribute towards the global goal of reducing the harmful effects of targeted NTDs so that they are no longer considered a public health problem. ENVISION’s overall strategy in Nepal is to support the national program to reach its goals for elimination of LF and control of STH. To achieve these objectives, ENVISION focuses on reaching the following intermediate results: IR1: Increased MDA coverage among at-risk populations in endemic communities IR2: Improved evidence base for action to control and eliminate targeted NTDs IR3: Strengthened environment for implementation of national integrated NTD control and elimination programs ENVISION is implemented by RTI International in partnership with CBM International, The Carter Center, Fred Hollows Foundation, Helen Keller International, IMA World Health, Light for the World, Sight Savers International, and World Vision. ENVISION’s implementation period runs from September 30, 2011 to September 29, 2019. Background Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a public health problem in Nepal and is a major cause of morbidity, primarily through lymphoedema of legs and hydrocele. It impedes socioeconomic development in many endemic areas of the country. Infection is transmitted by the mosquito vector, Culex quinquefasciatus. Based on baseline mapping data, 63 of Nepal’s 77 districts are endemic for LF, putting approximately 25 million people at risk of infection. In 2002, the Epidemiology and Disease Control Division (EDCD) of the Ministry of Health and Population formulated a National Plan of Action (2003-2014) for elimination of LF in Nepal. It was updated with National Guidelines and the Tentative Plan of Action for the Elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis in Nepal (2015-2020). The national target is the elimination of LF as a public health problem by the year 2020 by reducing the level of disease to a point where transmission no longer occurs. This is in line with the international World Health Organization-endorsed targets. The program aims to achieve this target primarily through the mass distribution of Diethylcarbamazine Citrate (DEC) and Albendazole to at-risk populations in all endemic districts. The campaign targets the whole community except for children less than two years, pregnant women, and very sick people. Albendazole is donated by the pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline GSK) through the World Health Organization’s global donation mechanism. DEC is purchased locally by the Government of Nepal. Following at least five rounds of Mass Drug Administration (MDA) with high treatment coverage, the program has been able to stop MDA in 38 districts where transmission assessment surveys have found transmission to be interrupted. Nepal hopes to stop MDA by 2019 in an additional 10 districts which passed Pre-TAS surveys in 2018. Therefore, in 2019, MDA for LF will be conducted in the remaining 15 districts by municipalities and rural municipalities. These municipalities will conduct a series

  • Covid-19 Nepal: Preparedness and Response Plan (Nprp)
    COVID-19 NEPAL: PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE PLAN (NPRP) April 2020 NPRP for COVID-19 | 2 COVID-19 Nepal: Preparedness and Response Plan (NPRP) Introduction The COVID crisis affecting the world today requires a level of response that goes beyond the capacity of any country. As the UN Secretary-General said: “More than ever before, we need solidarity, hope and the political will and cooperation to see this crisis through together”. The Government of Nepal is putting in place a series of measures to address the situation, but more needs to be done, and the international solidarity is required to ensure that the country is fully prepared to face the pandemic and address its impact in all sectors. The Nepal Preparedness and Response Plan (NPRP) lays out the preparedness actions and key response activities to be undertaken in Nepal, based on the trends and developments of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The plan outlines two levels of interventions; one that is the preparedness that should take place at the earliest possible and that constitutes an investment in Nepal’s health systems that will in any case benefit the people of Nepal, regardless of the extent of the COVID-19 pandemic in the territory. The second level is the effective response, across sectors, to an estimated caseload of 1500 infected people and 150,000 collaterally affected people. This can then be scaled up in case there is a vast increase in number of infected and affected people, beyond the original scenario of 1500 patients. Nepal is also vulnerable to natural disasters, including seasonal floods and landslides.
