Title
Monitoring, Reporting and Research
Description
The Government of Nepal commits to generating scientific evidence through rigorous monitoring, surveys and research for informing data driven policies, legislation, strategies, guidelines and plans for health, food and resilience in next 9 years (2022 to2030). This will be achieved by strengthening the information system, capacitating human resources, coordinating with universities, Nepal Health Research Council, development partners and advocating with sub-national governments for generating evidence and allocating adequate resources. Progress will be assessed by reviewing the evaluation, and other related published reports. Approximately NPR 3,720 million has been estimated for the next 9 years by the Government of Nepal to cover associated costs and will be partially supported by development partners.
