TA 7182-NEP PREPARING THE SECONDARY TOWNS INTEGRATED URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Volume 1: MAIN REPORT in association with KNOWLEDGE SUMMARY 1 The Government and the Asian Development Bank agreed to prepare the Secondary Towns Integrated Urban Environmental Improvement Project (STIUEIP). They agreed that STIUEIP should support the goal of improved quality of life and higher economic growth in secondary towns of Nepal. The outcome of the project preparation work is a report in 19 volumes. 2 This first volume explains the rationale for the project and the selection of three towns for the project. The rationale for STIUEIP is the rapid growth of towns outside the Kathmandu valley, the service deficiencies in these towns, the deteriorating environment in them, especially the larger urban ones, the importance of urban centers to promote development in the regions of Nepal, and the Government’s commitments to devolution and inclusive development. 3 STIUEIP will support the objectives of the National Urban Policy: to develop regional economic centres, to create clean, safe and developed urban environments, and to improve urban management capacity.

This is our small attempt to address some of those questions and generate debate and discussion on the increasingly changing security dynamics of Nepal.

In this regard, the theme of the 49th SEACEN Governors’ Conference/High-Level Seminar on “Financial Sector Development Strategy for Inclusive Growth” was timely and valuable for moving forward to a new financial architecture as well as on reassessing the role of the financial system in supporting sustainable and broad-based growth. In addition to this theme, the topic of “Regional and International Financial Issues” was also discussed during the Governors’ Conference. The discussion was useful towards developing capacity and enhancing resilience of the domestic economies at the time of global shocks.

  • Inequality—Measurement, Trends, Impacts, and Policies
    DRAFT This paper is a draft submission to Inequality—Measurement, trends, impacts, and policies 5–6 September 2014 Helsinki, Finland This is a draft version of a conference paper submitted for presentation at UNU-WIDER’s conference, held in Helsinki on 5–6 September 2014. This is not a formal publication of UNU-WIDER and may refl ect work-in-progress. THIS DRAFT IS NOT TO BE CITED, QUOTED OR ATTRIBUTED WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM AUTHOR(S). Inclusive Growth Experiences – the case of Nepal Discussion on the Paradox from a conventional and a holistic perspective Nephil Matangi Maskay, PhD* and Shiva Raj Adhikari, PhD** JEL classification: O15, Key words: Inclusive Growth, Nepal Abstract (words: 99) The experience of Nepal seems paradoxical, experiencing a costly domestic insurgency situation simultaneously with a sharply decreasing trend in poverty headcount rate: from 41.8% in 1996, to 25.16%in 2011.. This result is attributed to outflow of domestic labor, and sharp growth of remittances. However remittance-receiving households use this largely on consumption activity; that is “short” term IG. However, analyzing from a broader system perspective suggests that there are both intended (positive/negative externalities) and unforeseen consequences. This changes the analysis and suggests the need for a thorough understanding of the interaction for providing an accurate diagnosis of the IG process. * Director, Nepal Rastra Bank, Office of the Governor ** Associate Professor, Tribhuvan University, Patan Multiple Campus.

Similarly, the world today is also one that is a global race for investment, where funds can largely how to countries that offers safe ecosystems of policies, infrastructure and a talented workforce for these investors that thrive.

  • Nepal: Readings in Human Development
    Nepal: Readings in Human Development Four Essential Pillars of Human Development Nepal: ReadingsinHumanDevelopment Equity Equity is a powerful concept that lies at the heart of the human development paradigm. Equity should be understood as equity in life opportunities, not necessarily in results. If development is to enlarge choices, the people must enjoy equitable access to social, economic and political opportunities. Ensuring equity in access to opportunities demands a fundamental restructuring of power. Sustainability Central to the concept of sustainability is the notion of distributional equity – of sharing development opportunities between present and future generations and ensuring intragenerational and intergenerational equity in access to opportunities. It is the sustainability of all forms of capital – physical, human, financial and environmental– that must lie at the centre of human development concerns. What must be sustained are worthwhile life opportunities, not human deprivation. Productivity Productivity is another essential component of the human development paradigm. In contrast to human capital based development models which treat people only as a means of development, productivity is just one part of the human development paradigm - with equal importance given to the other components of human development. Economic growth is therefore a subset of the human development model - an essential part but not the entire structure. Empowerment Human development paradigm envisages full empowerment of the people on all fronts - social, economic and political- meaning that people are in a position to exercise their choice of their own free will. In contrast to the basic needs model, which is generally limited to economic choice, the human development paradigm embrace all critical choices – social, cultural, economic and political.
