NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
| The Mid-West region of Nepal is characterized by poor access to markets and economic opportunities and minimal provision of basic government services, leading to low health and education indicators. These adversities, often experienced with stark differences along lines of caste/ethnic/gender and geographic isolation, are a significant threat to the country's peace process and development. Education and training opportunities to foster economic growth must take into account and correct these inequities if they are to mitigate - not exacerbate - further conflict. This program will increase food security, reduce malnutrition and improve household environment among vulnerable communities in the district through creation of productive assets including multiple use water services, fish ponds, and terraces. The program will build on tested and proven approaches and previous successful collaboration between Winrock International and WFP. |
