The main objective of the study was to outline the situation of the labour market in Nepal, highlighting the key constraints and challenges related to employment-centric growth, and providing recommendations for the formulation of the new employment policy.
The research examined the nexus between transnational migratory flows, gender equity and the governance of forests through case studies from Nepal. Despite the importance of migration for rural livelihoods and the country’s GDP, community forestry policies are still underpinned by the notion that rural households are socially and physically bounded.
The objective of the study was to identify potential areas of migration in Nepal with linkages to GIZ’s bilateral programmes in Nepal, Inclusive Development of the Economy (INCLUDE) and Trade Promotion Program (TPP), assess risks and opportunities for both programmes to tap into a select number of districts in western Nepal. The study also provided recommendations on how to incorporate and implement the findings of the study into the framework of the two programmes.
The study was designed to assess the role of circular labour migration in building household level adaptive capacity and community resilience to environmental and socio-economic changes in Nepal, with a special focus on the mountains and mid-hills. The study was conducted in three districts in the Koshi sub-basin of eastern Nepal.

The overall objective of the project was to compile and critically analyse the existing state of knowledge on different forms of human trafficking and forced labour existing in Nepal and how this affects different groups of people within and outside the country. To fulfil the objective, extensive literature review and consultations with different stakeholders - government officials, policy-makers; practitioners, rights activists and journalists; representatives of national and international NGOs; and representatives of international organisations was carried out in Kathmandu as well as in four districts of western and far western Nepal.
