| description |
With the adoption of federalism through
the 2015 Constitution, seven newly created provincial and
753 local governments are now placed at the frontline,
tasked to manage substantial amount of public resources and
deliver critical services to citizens. As result, Nepal is
now in the middle of the transition to federalism, and it is
understandable that the process will be a drawn-out one,
which could take decades. This policy note has been prepared
based on the findings, analyses and recommendations of the
Federalism Capacity Needs Assessment (FCNA) study. The FCNA
was conducted by the Georgia State University in 2018-2019
for the government of Nepal (GoN) with the joint support of
the World Bank and UNDP. It has identified the gaps between
the needs and the capacity in different levels of
government. This note provides a synthesis of the FCNA
findings as well as its forward-looking recommendations in
terms of actions the government could take in the immediate,
medium and long-terms towards a full realization of the
benefits of federalism implementation in Nepal. |
