Integrated Rural Accessibility Planning (IRAP) is a local-level planning tool with a participatory and bottom-up approach. It provides an objective basis for local development planning and facilitates need-based project identification and prioritisation,
and has wide applications in rural development planning. As an area-planning-tool IRAP can focus on identifying the real needs of the community, while it can also be applied in prioritising individual projects on economic basis. Starting in a broader perspective of area development planning it can focus on planning of individual projects that improve the accessibility of the people in general. Within an existing local-level planning system IRAP can be adapted to the country situation for using it as a tool. In Nepal’s context IRAP fulfils the need of an objective tool in the existing local-level planning system, and therefore, these guidelines are proposed in a way of adapting IRAP to the country context.
