Highlights:
1. In the 3 quarter of 2009, rising food prices are still a key issue of concern for communities; but a slight recovery in terms of foreign employment can be observed, with an increase of remittances compared to 2 quarter of 2009.
2. Several coping mechanisms which negatively impact upon children’s education have seen a rate of decline between the 2 and 3 quarter of 2009, in particular the practice of parents reducing their children’s attendance in school for the purpose of working.
3. Nevertheless, many households affected by the 3F crisis still cope by increasing the burden of work for children (mainly household work) and reducing education related expenses.
4. Dalit households, households in the Karnali region, households who experienced food price increases in the last three months, large households, poverty-stricken households, and households using kerosene as a source for light are more likely to use education-related coping mechanisms.
