Recognizing the ongoing challenges in Nepal’s peace process, the United Nations Peace building Fund today released $8 million for Nepal. The funds will be administered by the local UN Peace Fund for Nepal, overseen by the Government, the United Nations and donors. The funds will be directed to a number of areas to help consolidate the peace, including improving policing, support to the courts, promoting dialogue and leadership and reinforcing national efforts to address the needs of women and conflict affected children. Acknowledging this contribution, the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Nepal, Robert Piper, noted the important achievements in the peace process to-date, including imminent completion of the discharge and integration process of the ex-Maoist army, successful and largely peaceful elections in 2008, removal of all minefields in the country and a smooth transition to a Republic.
