KATHMANDU, Oct 1: Despite the pressing global challenge of climate change and its severe implications for Nepal, the recently released concept paper of the 16th Periodic Plan by the Nepali government has omitted any mention of climate change. This glaring omission has raised concerns among experts and officials who consider it both unnatural and unexpected, given Nepal's vulnerability to climate-related disasters.
Kathmandu, Aug 17: The 16th Periodic Plan of the government will have a separate chapter to deal with issues concerning the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The National Planning Commission (NPC), which is responsible for preparing the periodic plan, informed this during a meeting of the Sustainable Development and Good Governance Committee of the National Assembly on Thursday.
Nepal needs to continue strengthening its private sector to achieve its goal of becoming a middle-income country by 2030, according to a joint study by FNCCI and IFC.
