description:

The Project is one of its kind both in Ramechhap and Dhanusha that is seeking to contribute to economic growth and employment generation by supporting (i) private sector development in strategic areas of competitive advantages and (ii) associated infrastructures. The district stakeholders (LDO, Chamber of Commerce, government line agencies heads) whom the Evaluation Team interviewed confirmed that the Project has been adding value by instilling "economic planning and management" dimensions and in helping create an environment for public-private-civil society partnership. Further, the evaluation confirms that the project has the possibility of minimizing the current negative impact of the global financial crisis at local level by creating local employment. This approach could be a viable model for local economic growth and poverty reduction, and thus, worthy of an upscale.
