On the development front, it is encouraging to note that the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Progress
Report 2010, prepared in partnership between the Government of Nepal and the UN Country Team indicates
that Nepal is likely to achieve most of its MDG targets by 2015, except for those relating to full employment and
climate change. Despite the decade-long conRict and political instability, progress has been remarkable in a
number of areas. For example, people living below the national poverty line has gone down to 25.4%, net
enrolment rate has increased to 93.7% in 2010 from 86.8 in 2005, gender parity has been achieved in enrolment
for primary education, under Qve mortality reduced from 91 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2001 to 61 in 2006
and 50 in 2009, and maternal mortality per 100,000 live births has reduced by half in ten years time.
