Development projects in Nepal

The purpose of the Initiation Plan Document is to outline UNDPs efforts with the E-Governance Commission of Nepal to develop a comprehensive e-governance blueprint. This blueprint aims to utilize ICTs to enhance the efficiency, transparency, and accountability of government operations and services, ultimately building a more efficient, effective, and responsive public sector. The project aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Nepals national development goals, with a focus on promoting inclusive development and public participation. Under this partnership, UNDP will provide technical assistance and capacity building support to the E-Governance Commission.

Road accidents in Nepal bring heavy losses to lives and to the economy every year. Despite all efforts, casualties have increased by 155% in the last 15 years. Experts estimate that the number may reach 4,500 by 2030, which means 12 people dying on roads every day. Women, children, and people with disability are particularly at high risk of road incidents. The majority of casualties from road crashes are among those of productive age, resulting in an economic loss of USD 122,88 million (equivalent to nearly 1.5% of GDP) in 2017. Aligned to UN General Assembly resolution A/RES/74/299, “Improving global road safety”, with an explicit target of reducing 50% of road traffic deaths and injuries by 2030, Nepal developed the National Road Safety Action Plan (NRSAP) (2021 – 2030) in 2020. However, the implementation of NRSAP lagged due to poor regulations, limited technical capacity, and weak enforcement. The inadequate capacity of the National Road Safety Council (NRSC) to function as the lead agency for road safety
