March 9, 2011: British Minister of State for International Development Alan Duncan has announced the British four-year plan for development in Nepal today. The British development agency called ‘Department for International Development (DFID)’ will implement the four-year (2011-2015) plan at the cost of £331 million in Nepal.
The plan is for supporting the peace process, strengthening governance, improving security, helping poor and excluded people to gain access to justice, delivering better health care, mitigating climate change and improving lives of women and girls.
This plan creates 230,000 jobs, reduces climate vulnerability of 3 million poor people, lifts 570,000 people out of poverty through the forestry program, averts 108,200 unintended pregnancies and provides safe toilets for 110,000 people, according to DFID.
