The draft country program document (CPD) for Nepal is presented to the Executive Board for discussion and comments. The Executive Board is requested to approve the aggregate indicative budget of $34,160,000 from regular resources, subject to the availability of funds, and $109,952,095 in other resources, subject to the availability of specific-purpose contributions, for the period 2013 to 2017.
Nepal is a landlocked country with diverse ecology and culture. Half of its 26.6 million people live in the low-lying southern terai plains, followed by 43 per cent in the middle Hills and 7 per cent in the northern Mountains. 1 The population can be divided into the Hindu castes (57.5 per cent), Janajati (37.2 per cent), and Muslim/other minorities (4.3 per cent). Forty-eight per cent of the population is under 18 years of age, making investments in children and adolescents especially relevant in shaping national development.
