| NSET is providing technical
assistance to UNDP in assisting the Government of Nepal in preparing the
National Strategy for Disaster Risk Management (NSDRM) in Nepal based on
Hyogo Framework of Action (HFA) with financial support form European Commission
through its Humanitarian Aid department. The project will prepare draft
strategy documents for eight specified sectors: Agriculture and Food Security,
Health, Education, Shelter, Infrastructure and Physical Planning, Livelihood,
Water and Sanitation, Information, Coordination and Logistics, and Search
and Rescue, Damage/Need Assessment and will also address cross cutting issues
such as Human Rights and Protection, Gender and Social Inclusion, Staff
Safety and Security and Decentralization and Local Self Governance. All
these collectively will constitute the consolidated National Disaster Strategy
on DRM. The strategy is expected to provide the road map for all sectors
to prepare sector specific programs for DRM and formulate the necessary
policy decisions for facilitating mainstreaming DRM into the development
process.
In this regard, we request all the concerned stakeholders to help us
in this Strategy Development Process by fulfilling the Nepali questionnaire
(general and sector specific)below and give further suggestions if any
to be mentioned in the Strategy Document. Please go through the Information
Brochure to know more about the Development of National Strategy for Disaster
Risk Management (NSDRM).
