Nepal Earthquake Recovery project NERP II

October 23, 2018

The Nepal Earthquake Recovery project Phase- II basically focuses on improving the health and nutrition of the senior citizen (Age 60 or 60+) in the target 4 VDCs of Kavre. While the senior citizens come together by organizing themselves through their groups, the field monitors and community volunteers continue to support the older people by enhancing their knowledge and awareness on physical and psychosocial health. The field monitors and community senior citizen volunteers remain in the communities, and facilitate the older people to have regular meetings and make the meetings fruitful. In addition, they become the means to supply the knowledge and information to the senior citizen. Not only building the capacity of the senior citizen and their groups, field monitors and community senior citizen volunteers also help for the project to bridge between the project management with the communities. Whether it is the needs assessment, programme design and implementation of the current project, the field monitors and community senior citizen volunteers bear the potentials of making the project implementation more participatory, realistic, need based and effective to the local communities. The Nepal Earthquake Recovery project Phase-II is being implemented from February, 2016 to January 2017 in 4 VDCs (Anaikot, Nayagaun Deupur, Jasithok Mandan and Gairibisauna Deupur) of Kavre. Later on, the additional program was designed for the period from October 2016- April 2017 with new activities related with Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Livelihood for same previous working VDCs and now its administrative name and wards are changed.
