  • Nepal Earthquake District Profile - Gorkha OSOCC Assessment Cell 09.05.2015
    Nepal Earthquake District Profile - Gorkha OSOCC Assessment Cell 09.05.2015 This report is produced by the OSOCC Assessment Cell based on secondary data from multiple sources, including the Government of Nepal, UNDAC, United Nations Agencies, non-governmental organisation and media sources. I. Situation Overview Gorkha, with a population of more than 271,000, is one of the worst-affected districts.1 The epicenter of the earthquake was in Brapok, 15km from Gorkha town. As of 6 May, 412 people have been reported killed and 1,034 injured. In the southern part of the district, food has been provided, but field observations indicate that the food supplied might not be enough for the actual population in the area. Several VDCs in the mountainous areas of Gorkha are yet to be reached by humanitarian assistance. There are no roads in these northern areas, only footpaths. The level of destruction within the district and even within VDCs varies widely, as does the availability of food. A humanitarian hub has been set up at the Chief District Officer’s (CDO) premises in Gorkha town. Reported number of people in need (multiple sources) The figures featured in this map have been collected via multiple sources (district authorities, Red Cross, local NGO, media). Where multiple figures for the same location have been reported the highest one was taken. These figures are indicative and do not represent the overall number of people in need. 1 This is an updated version of the Gorkha District Profile that was published by ACAPS on 1 May 2015. As with other mountain areas of Nepal, Gorkha contains popular locations for foreign trekkers.

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.

  • Chapter 5 Recovery and Development of Regional Economy
    Gorkha District BBB Rehabilitation and Recovery Plan 2073/74–2082/2083 CHAPTER 5 RECOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL ECONOMY 5.1 Introduction Recovery of the agricultural sector is mainly composed of the reconstruction of agriculture related facilities such as warehouses and food processing facilities, and the improvement of farming such as improved seed and vegetable growing . The livestock industry was also damaged due to the collapse of sheds because of the earthquake and landslides. Since livestock is a major asset for farmers in the district, compensation of the loss of assets is also a priority of the economic development sector. The Gorkha District has various tourism sources such as cultural heritages and trekking routes with beautiful landscapes. Transportation to these sites and trekking trails were damaged by the earthquake and landslides including Manaslu circuit. After the urgent recovery, integrated tourism planning is essential for future economic growth. People engaging in cottage the industry lost their source of livelihood because their workplaces were at their homes which were built using low masonry structures. Providing new employment opportunities to the affected population should be prioritized.
