International Rivers has played a key role in supporting civil society networks to understand hydro-power and to be better prepared to fight against bad projects, and advocate for their rivers and livelihoods. IR, along with Oxfam, has been key in supporting thedevelopment and operations of the regional Save the Mekong Coalition, and we continue to play a key convening and capacity buildingrole within that network. As a result of our ongoing campaigning to raise awareness in the region about the valueof the Mekong River and the need to protect this vital resource, regional governments have begun to recognize that critical knowledge gaps still remain in understanding dam impacts, and that timely scientific and economic analysis can help influence decision-making in the politicalrealm.

One year ago, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal, creating catastrophic damage, killing 7,500 people, and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless. Communities located in remote areas and ethnic minorities have been the most marginalized and are in greatest need of continued support. HOPE has partnered with a local organization, Women for Peace and Democracy Nepal (WPD), and identified two communities struggling to recover. A year after the quake, families are still working hard to rebuild.

A devastating earthquake has struck Nepal-and the epicenter is in Gorkha, where EDWON has long been working with the most impoverished women. Villages have been leveled and people have lost everything. EDWON, a human rights organization, is working at the grassroots with women of the "lowest" castes--who are profoundly discriminated against--even in disaster relief. EDWON is channeling desperately needed help to the community through our long established Dalit women's groups.

The overall goal of the project is to support the implementation of the constitutionally mandated federal system in Nepal. The work of the project will be divided between the two levels of parliamentary institutions – the federal parliament (HoR and NA) and the provincial assemblies) – with specific interventions for each, based on the baseline capacity of staff and MPs and what is realistic, achievable and feasible during the coming term of each parliament. To that end, the project will support the Federal Parliament and the seven provincial assemblies to fulfil their mandates such as: law making, monitoring of the laws and government programmes to ensure they are being effectively implemented. To achieve the goal of the project, it will seek to achieve the following key outputs: Output 1: Federal Parliament & Provincial Assemblies have enhanced capacity to scrutinize draft laws and to monitor implementation of legislation Output 2: Federal Parliament & Provincial Assemblies have enhanced capacity to conduct oversight of government spending, polices, and programmes Output 3: Federal Parliament and Provincial Assemblies have the practices and/or resources in place to promote GESI/LNOB and human rights principles Output 4: Federal Parliament & PAs have established routine constituent engagement as part of their decision-making processes

In Nepal women have been deprived of all opportunities and destined to remain as second grade citizens - excluded and subjected to subservient to men. The Dalits, the groups of people traditionally regarded as low caste and even untouchables, have remained discriminated against and marginalized. The plight of Dalit women is a double disadvantage. The recent political constitutional changes open up opportunities for them. But the non-functional governance the plight of Dalit women hasn't changed.

Il progetto ha l'obiettivo di favorire il sostentamento di 3500 agricoltori su piccola scala migliorando la produzione agricola e la commercializzazione di sementi e spezie di alto valore commerciale. Verranno realizzate attività incentrate sul miglioramento della produzione di semi di varietà locali che andranno a soddisfare la domanda dei mercati locali permettendo cosi un incremento del reddito medio dei produttori. Altre attività saranno rivolte al miglioramento della produzione, commercializzazione e trasformazione primaria di spezie con potenziale per l'esportazione, come lo zenzero, la curcuma e il peperoncino. Le attività proposte sono state costruite partendo dai bisogni delle popolazioni beneficiarie dei distretti di Kavre e Sindhupalchock in cui si riscontrano principalmente problemi legati alla produzione di semi di qualità, scarse conoscenze dei canali e modalità di commercializzazione e delle tecniche di produzione. Un importante intervento per migliorare la qualità nella produzione delle spezie e incrementare la competitività sui mercati è legato al corretto uso dei fitofarmaci sia di sintesi che naturali. La migrazione da parte di molti uomini verso Paesi esteri per la ricerca di lavoro ha lasciato un vuoto nella gestione familiare e aziendale; una particolare attenzione verrà data al ruolo delle donne nella gestione imprenditoriale, garantendo la partecipazione piena ed effettiva e pari opportunità di leadership a tutti i livelli del processo decisionale nella vita politica, economica e pubblica. Il cambiamento politico post elezioni del 2017 ha provocato un indebolimento delle politiche locali, non preparate all'autonomizzazione. Un processo di governance verrà attivato per supportare gli enti locali e governativi nella costruzione di strategie agricole nel territorio e per rafforzare la partecipazione popolare alle politiche locali.
