The UNDP/CCD organized its 4th Federalism Dialogue in Charikot for the proposed
Sunkoshi province. Sunkoshi province includes 176 VDCs (including two municipalities) of five districts − Dolakha, Okhaldhunga, Ramechhap, Sindhuli and Udayapur. Non-ethnic Brahmin/Chhetri communities comprise the largest population group in the province, along with several major ethnic groups such as Tamang, Newar, Magar, Sherpa and Rai, and small minority groups.
The objective of the workshop was to sensitize the participants to the concept of federalism and federal structure, its advantages as well as challenges in relation to the general context of Nepal and to explore the existing facts on opportunities and challenges for the implementation of a federal structure. The program aimed to provide social and political activists with general insights into various dimensions of federalism from the experts, and to promote discussion on the local context, enabling people to make recommendations to the Constituent Assembly to address their needs. The program was designed to take forward the momentum of dialogues on federalism in relation to the general context of Nepal as well as particular local contexts.
