The World Bank has commissioned CIDT and the Nepal Institute for Social and Environmental Research, to carry out a technical assistance project that enhances the understanding of Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Social Protection (SP) programs and delivery systems to assess how SP programs could improve risk management, preparedness and better respond to shocks.
The work aims to contribute to the continued evolution of social protection and improved shock response in Nepal through the production of recommendations for improving policies, systems, institutions and programs in social protection to tackle a key development in Nepal.
