Introduction1. This Country Programming Framework (CPF) sets out three priority areas of the Government of Nepal (GoN) to

guide FAO’s partnership and support, bringing together innovative international best practices and global standards with national and regional expertise. It aims at supporting the government efforts towards addressing sustainable and competitive agricultural production for poverty reduction and eradication of hunger and malnutrition; resilient natural resource management and agricultural production system; and inclusive and gender responsive livelihoods enhancement.

2. The CPF outlines the key priority areas of FAO technical assistance support to and partnership with the Government of Nepal in period of five years from 2018 to 2022. The formulation process of this CPF (2018-2022) involved a wide range of consultations among national stakeholders including line ministries of the Government of Nepal, civil society, private sector, development partners and relevant United Nations agencies including RBAs. It also brought together technical inputs of FAO staff in both FAO Headquarters in Rome and the Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific in Bangkok. This CPF document does not prescribe a rigid framework; rather, it can be revisited and adjusted when required according to the changes in government priorities during the period.

I. Country context and priorities

3. Nepal has made remarkable progress over the last 20 years, despite a challenging environment, which included a decade-long conflict, trade disruption at the southern border of the country, and two major earthquakes. The country also achieved most of its development goals and is committed to achieve the Agenda 2030. The Constitution of Nepal promulgated in 2015 has adopted a federal model of governance with three tiers of governments (Federal, Provincial and Local) providing a unique opportunity for Nepal to establish an equitable development trajectory, which leaves no one behind.

4. Over the past decade Nepal’s economy performed reasonably well with 4.3 percent growth. Agriculture is a major driver of Nepal’s economy and the dominant source of employment. Over that period, poverty rates declined from 42 percent in 1994/95 to about 21.6 percent in 20151. Agriculture growth has been instrumental for reducing poverty but insufficient to adequately address malnutrition, as underweight, wasting and stunting among under five year old children are 27 percent, 10 percent and 36 percent, respectively, and around 22.8 percent of the population live below the level of minimum dietary consumption requirements2.

5. Nepal has been undergoing a gradual ‘feminization’ in the agriculture sector, as male farmers continue to move out of agriculture, migrating to urban areas and abroad in search of more remunerative employment opportunities. The Country Gender Assessment of Agriculture and Rural Development in Nepal shows that 76.4 percent of women are engaged in agriculture work as unpaid family labour with 10.4 percent receiving only in-kind payment and 13.2 percent receiving cash and in-kind payments3. Furthermore, only one-third of the extension services delivered reach females.

6. Forty-four percent of the land in Nepal is under forest. Forestry has significantly contributed to local communities providing wood and non-wood forest products for crop and livestock sectors and household consumption as well as balancing the natural ecosystems and conserving biodiversity. It has also contributed directly and indirectly to the national economy. In line with the SDGs, Nepal targets to increase forest area under community management from 39 percent to 42 percent by 2030. Similarly, it proposes to halt forest loss and plant 5 000 ha of forests per year.

7. Nepal is highly vulnerable to climate change, hydro-meteorological disasters and extreme events such as drought, storm, flood, inundation, landslide, debris flow and soil erosion4. These natural disasters often affect food and nutritional security of vulnerable households as well as their livelihoods. Women and children are the most affected people.

1 GoN 2015. Agriculture Development Strategy.2 GoN 2016. Nepal Demographic and Health Survey.3 FAO 2017. Country Gender Assessment of Agriculture and Rural Development4 The National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) in the country has identified 29 districts as highly vulnerable to natural hazards and 22 districts as prone to glacial lake outburst floods

(GLOF). Likewise, 9 other districts are considered susceptible to floods. Neal is one of the most earthquake-prone countries as well.

8. Against this background, Nepal developed its national Sustainable Development Goals and Targets proposing to reduce the rate of the population below the national poverty line from 21.6 percent in 2015 to 13.8 percent by 2022 and to increase the consumption share of bottom 20 percent households from 7.6 percent to 9.7 percent during the same period5. The national SDGs for Nepal also aim to reduce stunting from 35.8 percent to 28.6 percent, wasting from to 11.3 to 7.0 percent and proportion of underweight children from 30.1 to 18 percent, by 20226. The national SDGs for Nepal plan to integrate these aspects into the national development policy and planning targets.

9. After the promulgation of the new Constitution in 2015 followed by the first democratic elections held in late 2017, the governance structure in Nepal has changed and now includes 753 local governments, seven provincial governments and a federal government at the center, along with decentralization of decision power and allocation of resources to each. Nepal´s political transition is a landmark event accompanied by the decentralization of control over natural and agricultural resources to the provincial and local level. As a result, provinces and local governments (municipalities) have become the relevant authorities to oversee the management of natural resources including forests and agriculture7 and will receive increased demand on their capacities. This institutional transition offers a significant opportunity to equip these new custodians at different layers with the capacities, policies and plans needed to support the scaling up of sustainable forest and agricultural management system in the changed context. This CPF duly considers the above needs into its priority outcomes and outputs.

10. The CPF is consistent with the global SDGs. FAO, which worldwide contributes to the achievement of 15 out of the 17 SDGs, is well placed to support GoN’s efforts towards achieving the SDGs. Furthermore, the CPF is linked to FAO’s organization-wide Strategic Objectives (SOs) and FAO’s Regional Priorities and Initiatives, specifically those on Blue Growth, Climate Change, Minimizing Food Waste and Loss, One Health, and Zero Hunger. CPF also aligns with the Nepal UN Development Assistance Framework’s (UNDAF 2018-2022) priorities and outcomes.

11. The CPF is formulated in line with a series of national strategies and polices and international treaties as given below:

a. The Constitution of Nepal (2015) states the right to food as one of the fundamental rights of each citizen. Nepal enacted the Right to Food and Food Sovereignty act which ensures fundamental rights relating to food of its citizens.

b. The Agricultural Development Strategy (ADS) developed by Nepal for 2015 to 2035 provides the main policy framework for the sector. This strategy proposes a 4 percent annual growth in agriculture GDP by 2020 and 6 percent annually by 2025 through working on four strategic pillars: (a) improving governance, (b) increasing productivity, (c) supporting profitable commercialization, and (d) enhancing competitiveness. The ADS is aligned with the Government’s Periodic Plans and Multi-Sector Nutrition Plan II (2018-2022). MSNP II guides the investments of the Government of Nepal in nutrition and details the roles of line ministries. The ADS also includes a flagship program on food security and nutrition (FSN), identifying priority activities to improve FSN across the country.

c. Nepal has also formulated its Zero Hunger Challenge National Plan of Action (2016-2025) with the objective of ending hunger and malnutrition based on people’s access to adequate, nutritious and affordable food all year round. It promotes sustainable food systems, targetting a 100 per cent increase in the productivity and income of smallholders. It also aims to bring the level of food loss to zero.

d. The Forest Policy (2019) proposes sustainable management of forests to increase production and productivity through ecosystem management. Reducing deforestation is emphasized under the Forestry Sector Strategy (2016-2025), while sustainable management of forest resources is emphasized under the National REDD plus Strategy. Likewise, the Nepal Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (2014-2020) gives importance to biodiversity conservation and ecosystem resilience. All these contribute to the efforts to mitigate adverse environmental effects and disasters, influencing agricultural production and productivity.

e. The forthcoming Fifteenth National Development Plan (2019-2024) has proposed to generate prosperity and happiness as the national goal. In the agriculture sector the plan is to include livestock innovation, high value agricultural production, agro-forestry and floriculture production, storehouse and cold storage construction, quality seed research and extension, agri-mechanization promotion, climate change adaptation and resilient technology development, land productivity enhancement and sustainable land use, implementation of land use policy, and production and processing of non-wood forest products and medicinal plants.

f. As a party to the Paris Agreement, Nepal is committed to contribute to efforts to mitigate the impacts of climate change. It has submitted to the UNFCCC its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) Plan for efficient management and utilization of natural resources contributing to building resilience. The National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) is prepared for adaptation to climate change and disasters. The country’s Climate Change Policy (2011) is supportive of the socio-economic development process while adopting climate resilient approaches. Other policies and strategies include the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA), the National Resilience Implementation Plan (NRIP) and the Environment Friendly Local Government Framework (EFLGF).

II. FAO’s contribution and expected results

12. This section presents FAO’s specific areas of support for the period 2018-2022 contributing towards achieving the priorities of the GoN related to increased agricultural production and productivity, eliminating hunger and malnutrition, poverty reduction, agricultural trade competitiveness, higher and more equitable incomes for rural households as well as sustainable natural resource management and resilient capacity building against natural disasters and impacts of climate change. The support areas are encapsulated in three CPF priority outcomes namely : (i) Sustainable agricultural production and productivity, marketing and consumption for the eradication of hunger and malnutrition, (ii) Enhanced natural resource management and agricultural production system resilient to climate change and disasters, and (iii) Inclusive and gender responsive livelihoods enhancement and poverty reduction. Each priority outcome has identified three outputs and related activities to achieve the respective the outcome. The lesson learnt from the implementation of the previous CPF (2013-2017) as well as the recommendations made by the CPF steering committee meetings have also been duly considered while shaping the outcomes, outputs and activities for this CPF. The highlights of FAO support areas under each of the outcomes are summarized hereunder:

Country priority Outcome 1: Sustainable agricultural production and productivity, marketing and consumption for the eradication of hunger and malnutrition

13. This CPF priority outcome is designed to channel FAO’s support towards policy and institutional capacity development through interventions that increase agricultural production and productivity by prioritizing improved access to technology and productive assets and financial services, training, agri-enterprise development and creating market linkages with a focus on gender equality, thereby contributing to eliminate hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition.

14. FAO’s support will be targeted to formulation, review and update of policies, strategies, programme and guidelines related to crops, livestock, and fisheries, contributing to food and nutrition security and safety including right to food, animal health, plant health and food safety compliant with the One Health framework. The activities will target strengthening the functional partnership and coordination mechanism in all three tiers of the Government for designing and implementing food and nutrition security and food safety related interventions. FAO support will also focus on equipping the new institutions at federal, provincial and local levels with the capacities, policies and plans needed to support the scaling up of sustainable agricultural management systems in the changed context. Farming communities will be capacitated through Farmers Field School (FFS) for identification and uptake of innovative, inclusive and gender sensitive technologies and practices to sustainably increase productivity and production. Furthermore, government institutions will be capacitated to monitor and analyse the agriculture production and Food Security and Nutrition (FSN) trends along with collection and analysis of disaggregated data in support of SDG targets.

BOX 1. CPF outputs under Outcome 1CPF Output 1.1: Enhanced food security, nutrition and food safety

CPF Output 1.2: Improved, inclusive and diversified production as well as agri-business development for crop, livestock, forestry and fisheries sub-sectors;

CPF Output 1.3: Reduced wastage/loss across the food chain

Page 12: Country Programming Frameworkline with the SDGs, Nepal targets to increase forest area under community management from 39 percent to 42 percent by 2030. Similarly, it proposes to halt

15. FAO will assist stakeholders to improve and diversify production, agri-business promotion and creating linkages to the markets. Farm Business School (FBS) will be mobilized for strengthening the capacities of farm entrepreneurs, including women led producer groups, to organize into agri-business enterprises and marketing promotion of prioritized agricultural commodities. Government will be supported to diversify the local food production system with focus on promising nutritious crops and animal products. Need based support will also be extended to the government to develop private sector investment plans and formulate value chain development strategies for selected high value commodities.

16. Awareness of consumers will be raised to minimize food waste and value chain actors will be capacitated for adopting multi-stage food handling best practices for minimizing food loss. FAO will also support the government to establish and/or strengthen a mechanism and database to monitor annual food loss and develop a food loss and waste control plan.

Country priority Outcome 2 – Enhanced natural resource management and agricultural production system resilient to climate change and disasters:

17. This priority outcome emphasizes FAO’s specific support for efficient and sustainable management of natural resources such as land, water, forests and bio-diversity, through policy interventions, institutional and human resource development, and promotion of climate-friendly management practices. Focus will be placed on enhancing resilience of critical ecosystems, forest and ecosystem health and promoting forest based enterprises for improved livelihoods of forest dependant communities. Emphasis will also be given to capacitate relevant stakeholders for disaster preparedness and response.

18. Specific support will be provided to the governments at all three tiers to formulate, review and update inclusive and gender responsive policies, strategies, investment programmes, regulatory frameworks and operational guidelines for sustainable natural resource management focusing on forests and bio-diversity. In the framework of government decentralization, FAO will also provide capacity development and policy assistance to the new institutions at federal, provincial and local level to carry out their new responsibilities in the management of natural resources. FAO’s technical assistance will be continued for mainstreaming tools and methodologies of climate change vulnerability risk assessment, climate change adaptation planning and budgeting.

19. FAO will also support the government to develop a Country Resilience Strategy on climate related and natural disasters, a DRR Priority Framework for Action in the agriculture sector and related DRR plans. FAO will continue its support to strengthening the epidemiology and laboratory capacities of government for the surveillance of animal diseases (e.g. HPAI, Rabies, Brucellosis, FMD, PPR) and capacitating the producers to adopt bio-security measures to control and manage pest and diseases.

20. With FAO’s support, the capacities of government officials at all three tiers of governments, communities, service providers, farmer groups as well as forest user groups will be enhanced for disaster preparedness and response. Capacities will also be improved for identifying and adopting resilience practices, risk monitoring and early warning systems for reducing losses from natural hazards, invasive species, pests and disease outbreaks. Need based support will also be provided to government in order to promote social protection measures to protect small-scale crop, livestock, fishery, forestry and agro-forestry producers against the risk of their enterprise failure.

Box 2. CPF outputs under Outcome 2CPF Output 2.1: Improved, inclusive and gender responsive policies, regulatory frameworks and operational guidelines for sustainable management of natural resources (land, water, forest, bio-diversity) adopted to build resilience of the critical ecosystems

CPF Output 2.2: Risk-informed, inclusive and gender responsive policies, guidelines and management practices for sustainable agriculture, livestock, fisheries and agro-forestry in-place for increased productivity and resilient livelihoods

CPF Output 2.3: Federal, provincial and local level capacity enhanced for disaster preparedness and response

Country priority Outcome 3 - Inclusive and gender responsive livelihoods enhancement and poverty reduction:

21. This priority outcome focusses on FAO’s support towards capacity building of federal, provincial and local governments for increasing resilience of vulnerable communities, including women, to improve their livelihoods. It will include strengthening the institutional capacities at federal, provincial and local levels in handling new decentralized responsibilities. This will be achieved through introduction and adoption of gender responsive and drudgery reducing technologies across the agri-food chains as well as promoting inclusive access of vulnerable households to farm and non-farm sector resources. Three outputs are foreseen, which channel support towards improving stakeholder capacity for the adoption of appropriate technology, knowledge and inputs, improving inclusive access of the vulnerable households to productive farm and non-farm sector resources and enhancing efficiency, inclusiveness and gender responsiveness for sustainable development of agri-food systems.

22. FAO support will be targeted towards designing enabling pro-poor policies, strategies and a framework for action for income generation and improved livelihoods. There will be increased engagement of local institutions (e.g. mothers’ groups, producer groups, marketing groups, and municipalities) in the delivery of inclusive and gender responsive institutional services. The selected communities will also be supported for increased access to productive assets and innovative, inclusive, and gender sensitive technologies and practices.

23. FAO will support government’s efforts of increasing access of the rural poor and marginalized farmers’ groups, including women producer groups, to the leased land, irrigation water sources and forest resources. Women, youth and smallholder farmers will be capacitated for protection of livelihood assets and develop entrepreneurship for increasing their access to alternate employment opportunities at the farm, off-farm and non-farm levels. Need based support will also be provided to rural poor and marginalized farmers’ groups and their respective local governance institutions to develop contingency plan for response during natural disasters and emergencies.

24. FAO will continue supporting the government to develop and mainstream inclusive and gender responsive agri-food systems policies and programmes. Supports will also be provided for increasing the public and private sector investments on promotion of inclusive agri-food systems for the benefit of vulnerable groups.

25. The details of the activities and targets under each of the three outcomes and related outputs are presented in Annex 1: CPF results and resource requirements for 2018 to 2022.

III. Implementation, monitoring and reporting arrangements

Resource requirements

26. Estimated resource requirement for implementation of proposed activities will be USD 30.9 million over the five-year period of the CPF. Out of this, USD 4.9 million has already been mobilized through bilateral and multilateral (e.g. GAFSP, GCP, GEF, OFDA) funding windows and FAO’s own technical cooperation programme. The funding gap of USD 26 million is expected to be mobilized within the five year period from multiple funding sources such as voluntary contributions (UTF, GCP), South-South Cooperation (SSC), FAO’s Technical Cooperation Programme (TCP), Global trust funds and climate funding windows (GCF, GEF) and other UN partnership programmes (UN Trust funds and CERF etc.) as relevant.

27. Joint Resource mobilization through joint programme and projects together with other UN agencies and especially the RBAs will be a priority in the CPF implementation. The lessons learnt from the successful collaboration and partnership with WFP and IFAD in the last CPF cycle in areas of policy, programme and project development and implementation, for instance leasehold forestry, Rural Women Economic empowerment Project, NEKSAP among others, will be carried forward.

Box 3. CPF outputs under Outcome 3CPF Output 3.1: Improved stakeholder capacity for the adoption of appropriate inclusive and gender responsive technology, knowledge and inputs for improved income generation from crop, livestock, fisheries and forestry interventions

CPF Output 3.2: Improved and inclusive access of the vulnerable households to productive farm and non-farm sector resources

CPF Output 3.3: Enhanced efficiency, inclusiveness and gender responsiveness for sustainable development of agri-food systems

Page 14: Country Programming Frameworkline with the SDGs, Nepal targets to increase forest area under community management from 39 percent to 42 percent by 2030. Similarly, it proposes to halt

6

In addition to this successful track record of partnership, FAO has been constantly engaging with the RBAs and other UN agencies in formulating other joint proposals for tapping into funding opportunities available in the country to leverage the comparative advantage of each agency and build on the synergy. In line with the priorities set in this CPF, avenues will be further explored to strengthen this partnership to formulate and implement joint programmes and projects to support Nepal in achieving its national priorities and national SDGs targets.

Implementation arrangements

28. The implementation of CPF (2018-2022) will be guided by the Steering Committee co-chaired by the Secretary of MoALD and the FAO Representative, with joint secretary level representation from other line ministries, Directors General of relevant departments, and representatives from the private sector. The decision of this Committee will be implemented by the CPF Implementation Committee chaired by the Joint Secretary of MoALD with representation from line ministries and other concerned agencies. It will ensure coordination among the implemented activities of other related agencies as relevant8

29. The strategic partnership of FAO will emphasize value additions for the results relevant to the selected priority outcomes. It will periodically monitor the achievements and integrate lessons learned in the forthcoming plans in line with its strategic objectives that comply with the national priorities. In this process, it will utilize comparative advantage of each partner engaged in the collaboration process, while facilitating the delivery of technical inputs and services relevant to the targeted outputs.

Monitoring and reporting of the implemented activities

30. Milestones are set for the proposed activities related to the priority outputs and outcomes. Their progress status will be assessed periodically against the pre-set indicators (see Annex 1: CPF results and resource requirements for 2018 to 2022). Information related to the indicators will be obtained from the MoALD, MoFE, CBS and other database. Means of verification will be used to access disaggregated data representing gender and social inclusion categories. Technical support will be provided to enhance MoALD, MoFE and other partnering agencies’ capacity for data collection, analysis, and interpretation of findings, report preparation and integration of corrective measures into the action plans as relevant.

31. Monitoring reports will be produced by FAO annually. These annual reports will feed to the compilation of FAO’s Country Annual Reports. It will cover the progress directions taking place across the priority outcome areas. It will also cover lessons learnt from CPF implementation, challenges encountered and subsequent measures to be taken as the way forward.

8 For example, coordination with the UN Gender Theme Group comprised of UN Gender Focal Points representing 17 Resident UN organizations promoting gender-responsive activities with: (a) technical advice, (b) capacity development, (c) knowledge management/information sharing, (d) coordination, and (e) policy advocacy agenda. Similarly, coordination will also be established with the SDG Working Committee, chaired by the Vice Chairperson of the National Planning Commissions and represented by the Secretaries of relevant Ministries and private sector.

IV. Update on the CPF (2018-2022)

32. Currently, Nepal is at the institutional transition stage because of its recent political transformation – a move from unitary governance system to a decentralized federal structure9. It may influence the service delivery platforms envisaged for the achievement of priority outputs and outcomes. Subsequently, there may be a need to adjust service delivery channels for the CPF once the roles and functional procedures of the provincial and local institutions are well-defined.10 The CPF will also be aligned with the forthcoming 15th National Development Plan. It may also demand adjustments of the CPF in line with the newly emerged issues in the agriculture sector and in natural resources management and priorities of different levels of the government. In view of these, this CPF will be treated as a living document with periodic review and updates.

Annex 2: UN system linkage through UNDAF

The UN Country Team emphasizes support for the Government of Nepal with priority over the following: • ImplementationoftheSDGs• Government’sefforttograduatefromtheLDCstatusby2022• Eradicationofhunger(NationalActionPlanonZeroHungerChallenge2016-2025)

The CPF covers a period of five years (2018-2022). It will directly or indirectly respond to four UNDAF priorities areas: (a) Sustainable and inclusive economic growth, (b) Social development, (c) Resilience, disaster risk reduction and climate change, and (d) Governance including the rule of law. It emphasizes collective action within the UN system for supporting national development priorities.

The sustainable and inclusive economic growth priority of UNDAF is consistent with Strategy 1 of the Fourteenth National Development Plan (2016-2019). It gives priority for economic growth based on the transformation of agriculture sector emphasizing infrastructure development and gender equity, which relate to the Strategy 2 and Strategy 5 of the Plan. UNDAF aims to provide increased access to sustainable livelihoods and decent employment opportunities for the benefit of vulnerable,30 unemployed and under-employed groups by 2022. It provides focus on social development for improved and equitable access, availability and utilization of quality services. To achieve this, the advocacy processes and institutional capacity building mechanism for gender-response development activities are targeted. Strengthening the national statistical system for well-informed planning and implementation of development interventions has remained its priority concern in the context of supporting Multi-Sector Nutrition Plan II (2018-2022), and the promotion of Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene Development Plan (2016-2030).

UNDAF also intends to build resilience reducing the climate change and disaster risks. In this regard, strengthening environmental management process has remained its target attempting sustainable recovery of the losses occurred including the reconstruction of damaged facilities. Its priority is consistent with the SDG 13, which aims to combat climate change effects with immediate response. Under this priority area, UNDAF intends to support preparedness for the reduction of risks with recovery of the damages occurred. The UNDAF priorities are all set on the basis of the global programming principles such as: (a) Leaving no one behind, (b) Human rights, (c) Gender equality and women’s empowerment; and (d) Sustainability, resilience and accountability.

30 Vulnerable people is defined under the 2030 Agenda UN Resolution 70/1, while the marginalized communities are defined under the 2015 Constitution. It includes children, youth, persons with disabilities, people living with HIV/AIDS; LGBTI, older persons, indigenous people, refugees, internally displaced persons, migrants, women and people living in hazard-prone and geographically remote areas, areas and communities who are in lower status than the human development standards mentioned in Federal law, (including) highly marginalized groups and groups on the verge of extinction.

UNDAF Outcome Area 1: Sustainable and inclusive economic growthOutcome Statement: By 2022, impoverished, especially economically vulnerable people have increased access to sustainable livelihoods, safe and decent employment, and income opportunities

Outcome Theory of Change: If the country is implementing programmes and policies which address the key drivers of inclusive growth, including productive employment, inequality reduction; basic socio-economic infrastructure; improved agricultural production, and an enabling policy environment for business, including small and medium enterprise, domestic and migrant labour and human capital development, then all people, including vulnerable people, will have greater (access to?) decent employment and income opportunities and ultimately contribute to poverty reduction.

SDG Links: 1,2, 5, 8, 9; GoNTYP links: Reducing poverty through productive employment and inclusive high economic growth.
