Results in Nepal

Active in Nepal since 1971, UNFPA has supported health-sector initiatives, enhanced the national response to gender-based violence, and implemented the population and housing census. Priorities include programmes for planning and managing population and for improving reproductive health, as well as strategies in districts that have made slow progress in achieving development goals.
