Exploring the feasibility of integrating health, nutrition and stimulation interventions for children under three years in Nepal’s health system
Community-based primary care settings are a potential entry point for delivering Early Childhood Development (ECD) interventions in Nepal. Past studies have suggested that integrating stimulation with nutrition interventions is an effective way to deliver multiple benefits for children, but there is limited knowledge of how to do this in Nepal. We conducted a qualitative study in Nepal’s Dhanusha district to explore how stimulation interventions …
Impacts of Covid-19 pandemic on the livelihoods of rural households in the community forestry landscape in the Middle Hills of Nepal
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has severely affected all sectors of the economy, and the impacts are expected to last-long. One major impact is that migrants return to their original households in rural communities due to loss of jobs.

Understanding the relationships between ecosystem services and poverty alleviation
As interest grows in the contribution of ecosystem services to poverty alleviation, we present a new conceptual framework, synthesizing insights from existing frameworks in social–ecological systems science and international development. People have differentiated abilities to benefit from ecosystem services, and the framework places emphasis on access to services, which may constrain the poorest more than aggregate availability. Distinctions are…
