Contextualizing patterns in short-term disaster recoveries from the 2015 Nepal earthquakes
Disaster recovery is multidimensional and requires theoretical and methodological approaches from the interdisciplinary social sciences to illustrate short- and long-term recovery dynamics that can guide more informed and equitable policy and interventions. The 2015 Nepal earthquakes have had catastrophic impacts on historically marginalized ethnic groups and Indigenous households in rural locations, arising in the immediate aftermath and unfoldi…
Forest, agriculture, and migration
Nepal has experienced rapid transitions in forest and agricultural practices over the last several decades. This study compares surveys of forest cover, land use, demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of six sites in Sindhu Kabhre and Palanchok Districts conducted in 1992 and 2017. We correlated these transformations with changes in forest cover as documented with remotely sensed images. We found that forest cover has increased tremendous…
Anatomy of disaster recoveries
The April/May 2015 Nepal earthquakes and aftershocks had catastrophic impacts on rural households living in biophysical extremes. Recoveries from natural hazards that become disasters have tangible and intangible short- and long-term dynamics, which require linked quantitative and qualitative methods to understand. With these premises in mind, we randomly selected 400 households in two accessible and two inaccessible settlements across two of the…
Sustainable Management of Common Forest Resources
Rotating Credit Associations in Nepal
Rotating Credit Associations (RCAs) such as Dhikuris, are becoming common among different groups of people in urban as well as rural areas of Nepal today. In this article, cases of Dhikuri among the Loba of Mustang, the Tibetan refugees, and the businesspeople in the urban center of Pokhara are discussed. Besides, examples of revolving fund management among forest user groups in the hills of Nepal are also presented. The case materials make it ev…
