Nepal’s Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) sets out a peace-building framework for Nepal’s development partners through its ambitious, transformational agenda on equity, inclusion, accountability, good governance and a restructuring of the state. While elaborated in a political agreement, these ‘root causes’ need to be concretely addressed through long-term development processes and interventions.In recognition of this reality, Nepal’s development partners have developed this Peace and Development Strategy. The strategy aims to provide a framework for how Nepal’s development partners can work together to support implementation of the CPA.
