Fighting diseases of poverty:Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative (DNDi) Neglected tropical diseases mainly affect poor and marginalised populations in low and middle-income countries who have no purchasing power. This is the main reason why there is no incentive for the private sector to develop appropriate treatments for these diseases. DNDi develops and provides worldwide access to new and improved treatments as well as contributes to strengthening research capacities in endemic countries and advocates research on these diseases.

Sustainable Livelihood and Disaster Mitigation (SLDM) The intervention works on the nexus of DRR, food security and agroforestry and successor programme of the Sloping Land Management programme (SLM).

Combining food security and DRR increases the scope to work holistically towards sustaining the resources on which livelihoods depend. The emphasis on sustainable food production addresses the humanitarian needs of communities. Coupling this with a focus on community action serves to enlarge the scope for groups and individuals to act more autonomously.

Small Irrigation Prorgamme (SIP) Incidence of poverty in irrigated areas of Nepal is half that in rain-fed areas and access to irrigation water contributes thus to mitigate poverty. Since the marginal lands are better accessible through small irrigation schemes, reducing poverty of smallholder farmers through small irrigation systems [1] are more effective than medium-sized or large systems. SIP will not only help increase their agricultural productivity but will also enhance the capacity of national and local government so that they can respond to these needs. [1] Small-scale irrigation, defined by the GoN's irrigation policy as command areas smaller than 25 ha in the hills and mountains and 200 ha in Terai.
