Nepal ranks at 144th out of 174 countries in terms of the Human Development Index (UNDP,1999). It is the poorest social sector performer in the entire South Asia region,the situation of children and women is worse. Nepal has ratified both Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and Convention on the Rights of the Child and is fully committed to meet the goals of the two conventions. The mid-decade review of the World Summit goals shows there have been some improvements but major efforts are still required in order to achieve all the changes needed to improve the situation of children and women.
