Since the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in 2006, Nepal has undergone a complex transition that entailed rehabilitating former combatants, supporting a participatory constitution drafting process, holding credible elections and mitigating potential conflicts. UNDP has worked closely with national institutions and other development partners to support Nepal and the Nepalese people through this transitional phase in order to overcome the challenges. Nepal’s primary challenge over the last several years has been formulating a democratic and inclusive constitution that is acceptable to all sections of society. But, with the dissolution of the first Constituent Assembly (CA) in May 2012 without a constitution, it became imperative to re-rail the constitution drafting process through a second election for the Constituent Assembly. After much wrangling among the political parties, Nepal held successful elections for the second CA in November 2013 with a high voter turnout. UNDP’s support to electoral reform contributed to making the 2013 elections inclusive fair and peaceful.
