  • Public Open Spaces in Crisis: Appraisal and Observation from Metropolitan Kathmandu, Nepal
    Vol. 13(4), pp. 77-90, October-December, 2020 DOI: 10.5897/JGRP2020.0797 Article Number: B74E25D65143 ISSN 2070-1845 Copyright © 2020 Author(s) retain the copyright of this article Journal of Geography and Regional Planning http://www.academicjournals.org/JGRP Full Length Research Paper Public open spaces in Crisis: Appraisal and observation from metropolitan Kathmandu, Nepal Krishna Prasad Timalsina Department of Geography, Trichandra Multiple Campus, Faculty of Humanities and Social Science, Tribhuvan University (TU), Nepal. Received 10 September, 2020; Accepted 13 October, 2020 There is an emerging debate in the literature of urbanism that public open space is in crisis in the cities of developing countries due to the increasing trends of urbanization and in-migration. With the significant growth of the urban population and rapid expansion of the city, the land demand for housing and other infrastructure development is very high. The high rate of urbanization due to which encroachment, high speculation, use change, etc. are the major reasons for decreasing public open spaces. There are many inferences that public open spaces are decreasing in Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) as Tundikhel; an important public open space located in the heart of Kathmandu is decreasing in its size and has changed in its use over time. At present, KMC does not have a sizable public open space for emergency uses such as evacuation, relief, recovery, and reconstruction during the catastrophic hazards. Analysis of historical imagery and the changing patterns of land use reveal that the decreasing trends of open spaces may lead more vulnerable to the city as it does not have public open space for disaster management in an emergency need.

  • Community Readiness for Self-Managed School
    1 COMMUNITY READINESS FOR SELF-MANAGED SCHOOL CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background of the Study The history of formal school education in Nepal begins with the establishment of Durbar School in 1853, mainly for educating children of ruling elites. Children of general public had no access to this school. In this regard, Ministry of Education [MoE] (2003) stated: “Modern education began in Nepal with the establishment of first school in 1853. However, this school was only for the members of the ruling families and their courtiers. Schooling for the general people began only after 1951 when a popular movement ended an autocratic family regime and initiated a democratic system” (p. 2). Khati (2003) argued that the Rana regime of 104 years were completely against any form of educational development, the opinion behind their motives of suppressing educational development was that the education would awaken the people and in turn weaken their power. For Khati, educations during Rana Regime were only for the chosen few of their own Rana circle and not as a right of everybody as the masses of Nepalese people were kept uneducated and illiterate. In those days, general public were deprived of education and were forced to engage in sustenance agricultural activities. However, aspirations of some people to educate their children were met to some extent by sending their children in ‘Patha sala’, ‘Gumba’ and ‘Bihar’ organized by community as guthi, caste group and religion groups. The 2 education facility that they rendered was poor in quality, and education, therefore, was also inaccessible to many. After the inception of democracy in 1951, it was realised that education system should be enhanced, where community took the first step in organizing the school for their children, which was referred as the community managed school.

  • WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12Th 2015
    WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12th 2015 Please find following the analysis of the 4W data – May 12th Introduction (Round 2) This is the second round of the 4W analysis. As this is the second round and still early in the emergency response, many agencies are still planning their interventions and caseloads, hence much of the data is understandably incomplete. In the coming week/s we will receive far more comprehensive partner data and will be able to show realistic gaps. In addition, we are receiving better affected population data and there are many ongoing assessments, the results of which will help us to understand both the response data and the affected population data and enable us to deliver a far more profound analysis of the WASH response. Please assist us as we have a lot of information gaps in the data provided so far and hence the maps are not yet providing a true picture of the response. We would like to quickly move to VDC mapping including planned/reached beneficiaries. Since the first round of reporting, agencies have provided substantially more VDC‐level data – as of today, of 740 WASH activities identified, 546 of these (74%) are matched to an identified VDC ‐ this is a big improvement from last week (which had VDC data for 192 of 445 activities, or 43%) The Highlights ・ 47 Organisations – number of organisations that reported in Round 1 and/or Round 2 of the WASH 4W ・ 206 VDCs – where WASH interventions taking place/planned (in 15 districts) 4W – WASH May 12th 2015 Water0B Spread of water activities ‐ targeted Temporary
