Description of the assignment:

Under the GoI- funded NHRP, UNDP has been providing socio-technical facilitation support for housing reconstruction to 26,912 house owners identified by NRA, from two municipalities and six rural municipalities of Gorkha district. The beneficiary’s households (HHs) include 1,482 HHs of single woman, 2,275 HHs having family members with disability, 116 HHs of landless, 428 HHs with elderly people, 80 HHs of orphan children and 2,938 HHs of Dalits. The project has been implemented since March 2018 and will be completed by December 2021.

The project commenced in March 2018 with a planned end date of March 2021. However, the project implementation was directly impacted by the lockdown and travel restrictions imposed by the government to contain the spread of COVID-19. Hence, the project was extended through a no-cost until 31 December 2021. Thus, the total duration of the project is 45 months, between March 2018 – December 2021. The total approved budget for Socio-technical facilitation component of the project was USD 8.7 million. As the project comes to an end on 31 December 2021, UNDP is planning to commission a final evaluation to identify and document achievements and project results, challenges, lessons learned and best practices. The findings of the final evaluation will provide way forward for any future course of action. Thus, the final evaluation report is expected to include specific recommendations for future interventions.
