<p>Kamdhenu Dairy Development Cooperative is a farmer led organization in the eastern part of Nepal with a dual membership model. Membership is open for primary cooperatives (45) and also for individuals (230). Members come from the entire supply chain of dairy products: dairy farmers & cooperatives for milk supply staff members of the cooperative for processing & distribution and retailers for the sale to consumers. About 10.000 (small) dairy farmers are indirect members of the cooperative and deliver milk to the cooperative. <br>The cooperative provides two main services to the members: dairy processing and financial services. Since April 2016 a new Board of Directors and Audit Committee was elected. The daily operation is managed by a management team with both experienced and junior managers. Since April 2016 the previous Finance and administrative officer is taken up the position as interim general manager.<br>The current product portfolio includes milk yoghurt ghee paneer khoa and butter selling around average 14.000 litres per day with some seasonal fluctuations. Production of milk is around 14.000 liters per day in line with the sales. Market opportunities are good . <br>The capacity of the current factory is 25.000 litres large enough for the coming 2 years to handle the current production. Aim is to grow in two years time towards 22.000 liters a day. This will require cleaning up and rearranging of the current factory requiring limited investments only. A clear strategy and focus on the implementation of the strategy will help KDDC to make a gradual grow and get ready for the possible next step: moving and expanding the processing factory after 2 years time.</p>

Labour migration is a central pillar of the Nepalese economy, remittances contributing to more than 20% of the GNI. According to the Constitution of Nepal (2015) foreign labour migration should be made safe and beneficial. To this end, Switzerland will continue to support the three spheres (federal, provincial and local) of the Government of Nepal through the pioneering Safer Migration project (SaMi) exit phase, aiming at institutionalising, professionalising and upscaling migration services offered across the country.

On April 25, 2015, a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Nepal and was followed by a series of large aftershocks. The earthquakes resulted in over 8,700 deaths and 22,000 injuries, 2.8 million displaced and 3.5 million in need of food assistance. In response to the earthquake, Canada established the Nepal Earthquake Relief Fund that committed the Government of Canada to matching eligible private donations to approved Canadian organizations. With funding from the Nepal Earthquake Relief Fund, the project improves the wellbeing of 260,000 people by increasing access to and use of safe drinking water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services in severely and crisis-hit earthquake affected areas in Nepal. The project trains local government officials and community organizations to respond to the current and future WASH needs of these communities, building resilience for the long-term. Beneficiaries are people unserved or under-served by adequate WASH services and include women, children and people of lower castes. Local governments and community organizations educate over 250,000 people, at least half of whom are women, on how to use WASH services and practice healthy hygiene behaviours. The project advances women's participation as decision-makers on critical WASH and health issues, and ultimately reduces gender inequalities in access to and control over WASH-related resources and benefits of development. The project focuses on the districts of Dolakha, Sindhupalchowk, Nuwakot and Kavrepalanchok. Activities are implemented by a national Water Expertise and Training Centre, hosted by the Environment and Public Health Organization.

This initiative seeks to close existing gaps between demand from non-governmental organizations, communities and citizens for services, and supply by governments of services through the use of integrated technologies. This project focuses on women and marginalized groups to increase their access to and skills in using technology and supports them in developing the leadership capacities necessary to use integrated technologies effectively to voice their concerns collectively and to influence decision-making within government structures at the local and national levels. Project activities include: (1) capacity building through training, coaching and technical support; (2) developing and/or adapting specific technological mechanisms and tools (for example mobile applications); (3) establishing infrastructure technology facilities, namely techno hubs, at the national, district and local levels to facilitate information sharing; and (4) implementing an awareness campaign on the importance of civic engagement and participatory monitoring of public service delivery.
