Ensuring quality of education through both formal and non-formal provisions of education has been the most crucial challenge towards achieving the Education for All (EFA) goals1 in Nepal. Equally challenging has been to systematically monitor progress towards EFA goals and strategies2 at the local (school, village, municipality and district), regional and national levels.
The Department of Education of the Ministry of Education (DOE/MOE) publishes the Flash Report I, the Flash Report II and the Consolidated Report of School Level Educational Statistics of Nepal each year. While these reports include detailed information with regard to core EFA indictors related to school education from early childhood development and pre-primary education (ECD/PPE) to secondary education (from Kindergarten to Grade 12) through formal means of education, it lacks information with respect to non-formal education (NFE) and literacy related activities, thus leaving a huge gap in data on formal and non-formal education provisions in the country. For data related to NFE and literacy, policy makers, planners and managers of education depend upon the population censuses and household surveys conducted by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) of the National Planning Commission (NPC).
This Non-Formal Education Management Information System (NFE-MIS) is designed to serve several purposes. At the national level, the NFE-MIS aims at providing policy-makers, planners and service providers with reliable, relevant and timely data to allow for informed decision making, realistic planning and effective delivery of NFE and literacy programmes and activities. In addition, it would assist in monitoring and evaluation of the overall development of NFE and literacy for all in Nepal.
