e system and poor education. In addition there are no roads and there is no electricity. The objectives of this project are threefold: - Increase the number of functionally literate children and adults in both Lhomi and Nepali- Provide awareness raising an
d training in hygiene and basic healthcare midwifery veterinary skills- Set up 3 pilot MLE preschoolsA conclusive review of all the national policy papers concerning literacy work in Nepal indicates that the objectives and activities of this project are cl
early in line with the strategic plans and policies of the government of Nepal. During a meeting in March 2008 between NELHOS the Ministry of Education and the Non Formal Education Centre (NFEC) the government representatives were very interested in the Lh
omi project. Additionally Nepal?s most recent PRSP has been used as a reference point to lend more legitimacy to the project?s activities. There are two targets in the PRSP that are directly taken into account through this project:1. To improve literacy ra
tes of people over 15 years old2. To increase literacy rates of women and girls over 15 years oldThe project?s ethos is influenced by international development policy objectives including the eradication of poverty through increased education promotion of 
women?s empowerment and gender equality use of environmentally friendly technology and the promotion of education as a basic human right. NELHOS seeks to improve the economic and social position of the Lhomi people through providing mother tongue education
 to Nepal?s Lhomi community in combination with vocational training. The link between education and poverty reduction is widely acknowledged in the international community. The project will also give women and girls a second chance to learn to read and wri
te in Lhomi and Nepali. Approximately 85% of the project?s participants in the first stage were women, this was very successful.In order to accomplish the project?s objectives the following activities will take place:- Set up community development committe
es in 18 villages- Manage an adult literacy program- Set up 3 MLE pilot preschools- Provide vocational training- Build NELHOS?s capacities

Frame agreement with NGO (Siemenpuu) "The climate change policy as well as the general policy of environmental protection and management of natural resources increasingly treats deforestation consequent to shifting cultivation as an environmental challenge. In view of vast bauxite reserves ly
ing underneath the shifting cultivation areas, the aluminium cartel having mining interest in eastern India has been lobbying for problematizing shifting cultivation to create opinion in favour of displacing the cultivators. Indigenous people practising sh
ifting cultivation have been defending their ancestral domain against mining interests.In this backdrop, the study will bring together the work of many institutions and scholars in various disciplines on shifting cultivation. It will document the technique
s of shifting cultivation and its impacts on the environment apart from detailing the social, institutional and cultural aspects of the communities depending for their subsistence on this form of cultivation. The inquiry will look at state?s attempts to er
adicate/phase out the practice through pressure/ incentives, peoples resistance and why shifting cultivation continues even today. The study will map the changing trend in shifting cultivation in study areas and would examine the impact of attempts to repl
ace shifting cultivation with sedentary agriculture.The proposed study will highlight the experiences of shifting cultivation with a focus on positive and negative impacts in terms of environment, economy and health aspects. It will be based on review of s
tudies done so far and its synthesis, primary observations from field and perceptions of communities engaged in the practice, understanding of researchers, officials and social workers will complement the study.  Society for Promotion of Wastelands Develop

Improving Palliative Care in Ilembula Lutheran Hospital The project aims at strengthening Home Based Care and Palliative Care (HBC+PC) already existing in connection to Ilembula Lutheran Hospital. Prevalence of HIV/AIDS is very high in the catchment area and despite fair availability of ARV-treatment many AIDS-
patients are in poor condition and in need of home-based palliative care. Although HIV/AIDS is common there is still a remarkable stigma attached to it and the patients are in danger of being severely marginalized. In addition to HIV/AIDS palliative care a
lso addresses patients with cancer or other life-threatening chronic illnesses (such as heart failure COPD diabetes mellitus physical disability etc.). Overall objective is to ensure as high a quality of life as possible of people living with life-threaten
ing  illnesses by providing them adequate pain relief other necessary medication and physical care as well as psychosocial and spiritual support. This will be achieved by improving the quality of care through training the staff and volunteers of the HBC+PC
 team and the hospital and by ensuring adequate resources for continuation of the work. Of the cross-cutting development policy objectives reducing inequality of all kinds is particularly focused. Gender equality is not taken into account as a separate iss
ue, the selection of the patients is based on their disease and need for care only regardless of their sex age religion ethnic group economic situation etc. There is no obvious influence in the climate sustainability in this project. The project is based o
n ongoing work and existing basic structures and aims at improving and strengthening them. The key project activities will be: to strengthen the HBC+PC team by further educating the current team members as well as recruiting and training new ones, to  teac
h hospital staff about palliative care, to start basic teaching about palliative care as part of the training of nurse students in the nursing school, to identify the problems in ensuring the availability of the necessary drugs,  and to renovate and equip 
a new palliative care unit (4-6 bed ward + office room) within the hospital. The main beneficiaries are the patients and their families the members of the HBC+PC team the hospital staff and the students in the nursing school. If successful the project may 
also create in Ilembula Hospital a Centre of Expertise in Palliative Care which could then act as an example and training site for other units too.
