In the immediate aftermath of the earthquake on 25th April 2015, UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, in coordination with the Ministry of Health and Population, the Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare, and many other partners, reached out to the most vulnerable population in the 14 most-affected districts to deliver SRH services, with a special programme for adolescents, and to prevent and respond to GBV.
The period August through September was a period of significant political unrest in Nepal, with demonstrations and strikes effecting implementation. Furthermore, at the time of writing, the country was in the grips of a nationwide fuel crisis, further restricting implementation.
