Introduction 1.1 Program Background The Government of Nepal (GoN) is committed to improving peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standards of living through the citizen-centric governance and effective service delivery based on democratic values and right based development approach. After the significant achievement in implementing first phase of the Local Governance and Community Development Programme (LGCDP), leads as a national programme in the area of local governance and community development. The importance of this programme is ensuring the accountability on delivery of local services through established institutions and systems and the commitments being expressed for its continuation, by the GoN and the LGCDP development partners (DPs). LGCDP Phase I, successes while it has addressed its emerging challenges, demonstrating value for money and practicing effective risk management in a transitional and politically uncertain environment. LGCDP I activities were planned to achieve three overarching outcomes related to citizen empowerment, local government operations and local government policy making and execution. Together they aimed to strengthen the demand and supply sides of local governance by empowering citizens to actively engage with local government bodies and to increase the capacity of the government to deliver basic public services through a devolved system of local government. The vision for the programme calls for LGCDP II to act as a key support mechanism to the GoNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poverty reduction efforts. By the positive experience of Phase I, LGCDP II will make pathways with a number of changes in focus and approach. As describe above; LGCDP - a national programme of Government of Nepal and is under implementation across the country from the last five years. Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development (MoFALD) is the executive agency for this programme and has implemented its activities in community level through the Local Bodies with financial support from a range of Development Partners. In order to co-ordinate/facilitate LGCDP's activities in local level and provide technical backstopping support to implementing agencies (LBs), LGCDP has established a six Regional Co-ordination Unit (RCU) in the country. RCU Dhangadhi is responsible for facilitating, monitoring and backstopping of 9 District Development Committees, 25 Municipalities and 314 VDCs being existed in the region. The RCU also serves as a link between the Programme Co-ordination Unit (PCU)/MoFALD and the LBs. Additionally, RCU is responsible in carrying out regular monitoring of field level activities and ensuring timely delievery of services along with preparing periodic and annual plan and progress reports. This report describes the major activities implemented by LBs under LGCDP-II in the region on Fiscal year 2072/73 (2015/16).

1.2 Introduction of Far-West Region (Province 7) The Far-West Development Region of Nepal covers 19,539 km2 out of 147, 181 km2 area of the country. It has nine districts with the regional headquarters at Dipayal of Doti district. The Far West Region is remote and developmentally challenged. About 44% of people in the Far-West Hills and 49% in the Himalayan districts live beneath the poverty line. The region has limited access to basic service delivery and increasing service delivery is always challenging because of its difficult topography. The region has complex socio-economic structures and there is both widespread gender and caste based discrimination. Traditional systems associated with religion, culture and customs also have a great impact on overall development. It has two zones: i.e. Mahakali and Seti. The main cities are; Dhangadhi is the district headquarters of Kailali District of Seti Zone. Mahendranagar is the districts headquarter of Kanchanpur District in Mahakali Zone. It is located on the Mahakali River, 6 km north of the India border. Kanchanpur is inhabited by people of various races, including the indigenous Tharu people. Dipayal Silgadhi municipality is the headquarters of Doti district as well as regional centre of Far-West Development Region. It is within trekking distance of Khaptad National Park. Dipayal is also the name of the scenic valley of Seti River. Amargadhi is the district headquarters of Dadeldhura district.

1.3 Topography of Far west Development Region Far west development region is a smallest development region of Nepal. The eastern boundary of the Far-west Development Region is Karnali River and its western boundary is Mahakali River. The region is influenced by the monsoon wind which is coming from the North West which brings enough rainfall in winter. Thus, FarWest Development Region gets more rainfall in winter than in summer. Hence, the Region is comparatively less dry than other region. During the summer 2|P a g e

| 2072/73(2015/16)

season extremely hot wind called Loo blows from the Thar deserts of India towards the terai of Nepal. Such winds affect Mahendranagar, Dhangadi and even Dipayal in the north.

1.4 Socio-economic Condition of Region Far-West Development Region is least economically backward in compression to other region. Most of the remote areas of the districts are not accessed by transportation and facing problems. However district headquarters' of all 9 districts are nearly linked with the roads, which makes people easy access to find job market to Nepal and India. But the condition of women is miserable in the region. Tharus live in different part of terai. They earn their living by agriculture, animal rearing, fishing, etc. Besides, other groups of people also live here like Brahmin, Chhettri, etc. The main crops grown in FarWest Development Region are millet, barley, wheat and oil seeds. Paddy is mostly cultivated in the terai. The important tourist centers are Shuklaphanta Wildlife Reserve, Khaptad National Park, Mount Api and Saipal. Because of less infrastructures and distance from the capital city, that very few tourists are visiting the Region. As from socio-economic indicators, about 44 % of people of Hills and 49% in the Himalayan districts is living below the poverty line. The region has limited access to basic services and to increase the service delivery is also challenging due to difficult topography. It has complex socio-economic structures and there is both widespread gender and caste-based discrimination. Traditional systems associated with religion, culture and customs also have a great impact on overall development of the region. Opportunities are in far western Nepal, thousands of people can cross the border at Kanchanpur / Kailali on their way to Bardia. As there is a good road network, have water supply and electricity, and plenty of natural beauty on offer the districts can easily attract transit passengers to stay over. Exclusive products like rice wine, banana wine, allo (a local fibre), and Tharu and Rana handicraft just need better branding to capture a wider international market.

1.5 Local Development Bodies in Nepal 1.5.1 District Development Committees District development committee (DDC) is a leading organization for district level development activities. It is considered as the central point of the local development. There are many government and non-government agencies in district for the integrated development. DDC plays an important role for coordinating all the development initiatives implemented by line agencies and I/NGOs. District Council is the supreme body for the formulation of district development plan. The Council should ratify the plans and programmes of line agencies, which are prepared following participatory planning process. District Development Committee is the executive body of the District

3|P a g e

| 2072/73(2015/16)

Council. The Committee conducts its activities in accordance with the decisions and direction of the District Council. The DDC implements its programme within the framework of district periodic plan. We have 75 districts i.e. 75 district development committees are in functional now. 1.5.2 Municipalities A municipality is usually an urban administrative division having corporate status and usually powers of self-government or jurisdiction. The term municipality is also used to mean the governing body of a municipality. A municipality is a general-purpose administrative subdivision, as opposed to a special-purpose district. Currently, there are 217 municipalities in Nepal. 1.5.3 Village Development Committees It is the lower administrative part of district has several VDCs, similar to municipalities but with greater public-government interaction and administration. Currently, there are 3,157 village development committees in Nepal. A VDC is further divided into wards; the number depends on the population of the district: the average is nine wards.

WCF and CAC have been gradually empowered through training/exposure with the support of SMs/LSPs at local level. WCFs with technical support from the trained social mobilisers have already played a significant role in local level planning process; especially in such transition period of Nepalese political situation. What is further needed is to get coordinated closely with VDC and locally available Line Agencies and other service providers for its institutional development and making WCF as entry point for all sorts of development intervention in local level.

Altogether Rs.249604000/- fund has been received from MoFALD of which total NRs. 224079000/- has been expended. The expenditure ration of DDC is more than 92% whereas 85% budget expended by MUNs. The expenditure ration of Municipality seem less than compression of last year due to the budget freeze of NRs.5000000 for comprehensive urban development plan.

7.3 Gender and Social Inclusion (GESI) Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) is a cross-cutting issue of the LGCDP II. Despites the integration GESI by all output, output seven intend roll-out the GESI in to the Local Bodies (LBs) in process of planning, budgeting, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and governance local actors. GESI acknowledge the diversity among women, the poor, socially/economically disadvantage and marginalized group of people. It recognize the specific need and analyzed the root causes of poverty, discrimination, gender relation, local power structure among different ethnicity group of people and men and women. Similarly, GESI focuses inequalities of access to services provided by government, access and control over the resource, decision making level and meaningful participation. According to the Global Gender Gap Survey (3GS) report 2015, the gender gap rank of the Nepal is 110 out of 145 countries. Likewise, the Gender Development Indicator (GDI) score of Nepal is 0.430, of which Mid-west and Far-west region have lowest value 0.423 & 0.442 respectively.

(Resource: The Global Gender Gap survey report 2015 and Gender Human Development report 2014). Therefore, fostering these issues, MoFALD have developed GESI policy 2066, Gender Responsive and Social inclusion budget implementation and auditing guideline 2068, Gender Responsive Budget Localization Strategic 2072 and included in other act and regulation too for addressing voices, needs and problems of women and socially excluded group. Similarly, addressing national and international commitment, MoFALD have made special provision of 35% capital budget and 33% of women GESI/GRB orientation and audit in Dashrathchand participation in all level of LBs activities Municipality, Baitadi to bring GESI mainstreaming. Furthermore, LGCDP II has been backstopping LBs towards effective service delivery to the entire group through internalization of GESI/GRB/GRBA and other national/international action plan. The women, children, Dalits and Disadvantage people are gradually involving in the process of planning, budgeting, implementation and monitoring. 7.3.1Major achievement in GESI: GESI and GRB adoption: All the nine DDCs have formed Gender Responsive Budget committee (GRBC) and Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Implementation Committee (GESIIC) according to the GESI policy and GRB localization strategic guideline 2072. However regarding the Municipalities and VDCs the GRB localization strategic is not internalized so far and GESI policy being revised. Therefore VDCs and municipalities have not formed GESIIC and GRB yet. Despites, the Gender responsive and Social Inclusion budget formulation and auditing guideline 2068 developed and approved from the government on 2069 but its implementation in the LBs seems poor. However, DDCs and Municipalities have gradually adopting GESI auditing guideline but expecting financial support from MoFALD or LGCDP. Regarding GRB sill LBs have understanding 35 percentage amount is GRB. Therefore, sometime they claimed to adopt GRB. But actually, single of LBs have not adopted GRB to date in case of this region. As per the DDCs report eight DDCs have endorsed GESI agendas in the District Periodic Plan for mainstreaming GESI.

GESI audit progress status of DDCs and Municipalities: GESI audit is a regular process of LBs to make effective service delivery system regarding budgeting, planning and implementation to the socially and economically discriminated group like women, children, Dalit and DAG. This process ultimately supports to establish good governance. During the fiscal year all nine DDCs and 18 Municipalities have conducted GESI audit according to the GESI budgeting and auditing guideline 2068. Only one Municipality have conducted GRB. It is observed that GESI audit is new activity for most of the Municipalities. During this programme DDCs and Muns have invited political parties, sectoral agencies, LBs staff, local journalist and likeminded agencies. Key findings are highlighted here below.  Built common understanding and importance of GESI audit among political parties, sectoral agencies, LBs staff and other likeminded participants. The participants also realized its importance in MCPM.  Five DDCs namely Dadeldhura, Kailali, Baitadi, Doti and Bajhang and Six Muns (Mangalsen, Dipayal-Silgadhi, Dashrathchand, Patan, jahalari-Pipladi and Attriya) prepared action plan in weak indicators. The remaining LBs decided and committed to prepare action plan.  All DDCs have formed GESIIC and GRB committee and assigned Social Development Officer as a GESI focal person.  More than 80% women have actively participated during the planning, budgeting and implementation process related to target programmes.  LBs including sectoral agencies and political parties made attention and committed to regularize GESI audit in regular basis by LBs council.  It is observed that due to the awareness and sensitization of GESI, the women and DAG participation in public activities have been gradually increasing trend. The spider diagram below shows the indicator wise status of the DDCs and Municipalities related to GESI. The spider diagram shows that the good governance indicator scored 10 in DDCs and 9 in Muns. Overall, this indicator seems in strong. The indicator of target group is moderate and scored 9 in DDC and 8 in Muns. Similarly, the indicator of internal structure scored 8 DDC and 6 Muns, planning monitoring and evaluation scrored 7 DDC and 6 Muns, capacity development scored 6 DDC and 5 Muns, national policy commitment scored 6 DDC and 5 Muns, local bodies policy/guideline scored 7 in DDCs and 4 in Muns and Human resource development/coordination/collaboration scored 4 in DDCs and 3 in Municipalities. Despites the various activities implemented by LBs to mainstreaming the GESI but lack of the proper documentation and less sensitive towards the indicators they get less or zero score the 50 | P a g e

simple indicators.The overall score shows that each indicator need to strengthened. However, LBs should focus more attention to those indicators which score is less than 6. Representation of the women in the CAC, WCF, ward level planning and LBs council This data is based on the RBM of the LBs. The total members of WCF are 76645 of which 50% are women, whereas last year the women representation was only 46%. The trend of women representation is increased by 4%. In addition, most of the WCF chairperson are women coordinator. Similarly, 25374 DAG people have involved in to the CAC of which 90% are women. However, last year, 12666 DAG community have participated in the CACs of which 88% were women. Likewise, 162133 citizens have participated in ward level planning process and of which 44% are women in the same case last year (f/y 2071-72) 41% women have participated total of 148,722. The current data shows the women become aware to participate in the planning process and puts their demands as well. In respect to the women participation in LBs council in this year is 32% only whereas has 36% women participated during the last year, which is decreased by 4%. Regarding the women participation in planning process and decision making it is gradually increasing trend in comparatively of last year. However, LBs need to ensure meaningful participation of the women in decision making and involvement in monitoring and supervision committee. Demand of WCF V/S addressed by LBs As per the RBM report 2072/73 all about 16631 demands were forwarded by WCF to the LBs for women, Children and DAG of which only 37% demands were approved and include in to the LB's annual plan, which is less than the last year (Last year 45%). Out of total approved projects women, 34%, Children 41% and DAG 35% demands are included in LBs annual plan. However, the actual ration of approved projects of VDC and Municipality council is more than 85% as those approved projects were included from WCF demanded projects. 51 | P a g e

Target group budget allocation v/s expenditure (in thousands.000) in FY 2072/73: As per the RBM and PFM report all about NRs. 230108 budget allocated by DDCs and Municipalities for the target group in fiscal year 2072/73 from their total capital amount. The data shows on an average 91% budget expended on 1953 projects of DDCs and Municipalities from the allocated budget. Despites the expenditure trend is seems good on the base of allocation. In an average LBs have allocated target budget 35% of total capital grant. However, the target budget mostly expended in infrastructure area i.e. school compound wall construction, community building, target group road, Early Child Development Center (ECDC) and so on rather than capacity building, income generation and institutional development.

Expand Child Friendly Local Governance A. CFLG Adoption:

Nepal Government committed national and international commitment regarding the ensure of Child right through four pillar of UNCRC i.e Child protection, Child Survival Child Development and Child Participation.

Reduced alcohol production and consumption leads reduced domestic violence

"People interest in self grows when their self awareness increases. Interest generates desire that leads to seeking opportunities. Such example set by the participants of 'Belauri Municipality Pragati Citizen Awareness Center of Ward no. 7." Citizen Awareness Center (CAC)situated in the Sitanagar Community Forest of the Belauri Municipality was formed in 10 March 2011 with the support of LGCDP. Since the inception, CAC members have been engaged in discussion

to identify pertinent community problems and scopes of community development via REFLECT classes. Members came to a consensus that causes for the domestic violence

and abuse against women usually stems from alcohol production at home and its uncontrolled consumption. Thus, members decided to raise awareness on discontinuing

such practices from every household. "Alcohol is traditionally needed for rituals and is considered a part of household hospitality. But it had more malpractices associated with it too. Hence, as a community we decided to stop the practice entirely weighing more negatives than positives behind it, assaid CAC member". CAC members

began campaigning to reduce and stop production of alcohol, starting from their own members.An action plan was pre-pared to remove alcohol from each household. For this, members starled door to door campaign explaining

communities about the negative effects alcohol can bring to individuals, family and communities. However, it was not with challenges. CAC members even received threats that they were trying to block people's main source of

CAC Members destroying home made alcohol income. Nevertheless, CAC members relentlessly continued their effort. Eventually, the whole community became an

alcohol free zone with the members' unified effort. Furthermore, CAC also started penalizing household with NPR 500 if continued with alcohol production in their home or community. The after effect is reduced domestic violence in families and minimized social disputes' Moreover, this

movement brought out practice women and community members to come together, identify social issues and work together to reduce social issues.
