RISE Bajura: Resilient, Inclusive, Sustainable Development and Empowerment of Farmers and Vulnerable Households
This project employs the Community-Led-Inclusive-Development Approach (CLIDA), a participatory approach focused on empowering target community groups through self-determination and responsibility for project activities. The aim is for 1.600 households to develop sustainable self-help structures within the target group by working closely with communities and focusing on their needs. This includes planning, implementation, observation, and evaluation with active participation from village communities, utilizing various Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) tools. The project targets two main objectives: improving living conditions through sustainable agricultural practices and income-generating activities, and enhancing resilience against disasters and climate change impacts. Actions include training in climate-smart agriculture, sustainable livestock farming, disaster preparedness, and climate change adaptation. Additionally, preparatory measures like assessments and various training sessions are carried out to enhance the knowledge and skills of the target groups, thereby sustainably improving their living conditions and resilience.

SDG 4, Just Education: Ensure equal access to education and opportunities for children and young people from remote communities in Bajura Nepal.
In Nepal, recent federal restructuring coincides with educational challenges: while primary school enrollment is high (91%), secondary rates are low (38.9%). Access to education remains limited, depriving children of prospects. Poverty, unemployment, and unproductive agriculture plague project communities, hindering Nepals development. In Bajura district, despite a 97% enrollment rate, learning outcomes for grade 8 students range from 41-46%. This project aims to address these disparities by providing equitable education and development opportunities, aligning with SDG 4. The goal is to ensure 10,000 children and 2,100 youth in 13 communities have equal access to quality education and future opportunities. Subgoals include establishing monitoring mechanisms, enhancing schooling systems, and strengthening rural economies to reduce vulnerability among children and youth. Structural and social sustainability will be achieved through community involvement and the establishment of Civil Society Organizations.

Energy for Food
The project aims to increase agricultural productivity and food and nutrition security by enhancing the use of reliable and affordable energy solutions for production, irrigation, processing, storing, packaging, and marketing of locally grown farm products. The project will work with local and provincial governments, cooperatives, traders, and service providers to enhance their knowledge on the use of modern technology for food production and sustainable food system management through capacity building and provisions for climate information, policies, finance and research. Extensive use of energy-based and climate smart technology will help the farmers reduce the cost of production and increase local food supply throughout the year. At the same time this will also support women and marginalized groups through economic empowerment through job creation while contributing to environment.Focus will also be on support to increase cultivation of local indegenous crops thar are climate resilience. Increased crop diversity a focus. The project will be implemented by UNDP in 11 local governments of Sudurpashchim and Karnali provinces (5 in Karnali and 6 in Sudurpashchim) in close collaboration with the local governments and in partnership with Alternative Energy Promotion Center (AEPC), WFP, ICIMOD and other local partners (like LiBird, CEAPRED, SAPROS etc) working on food security issues. To some extent the project builds on earlier investment in the renewable energy sector in these districts. The intended impact is Improved Food and Nutritional Security of the communities of selected areas of Nepal. There are three outcomes that are expected to contribute to the overall impact. One outcome is that Households have enhanced access to enough food to meet their dietary needs. For this to happen it is expected that Renewable energy solutions will play a key role in the improvement of the agriculture value chain.

Smart buildings and green infrastructure for improved human security and sustainable development in Nepal
Nepal is warming at nearly twice the global average, with urban areas facing severe heat stress. In the southern Terai, extreme heat and humidity are driving rapid growth in energy demand for cooling, increasing emissions and placing significant stress on energy infrastructure. Dhangadhi Sub-Metropolitan City (DSMC) in Sudurpaschim Province experiences recurrent heatwaves during May–August, with temperatures frequently exceeding 40°C. Climate variability, rapid and unplanned urbanization, loss of green spaces, and limited energy-efficient infrastructure exacerbate risks to public health, livelihoods, and essential services, disproportionately affecting low-income households, outdoor workers, and residents of poorly insulated housing. Impacts include heat-related illness and mortality, school disruptions, and reduced functionality of public facilities.
