State Support Programme (SSP) Nepal
Switzerland contributes to peace and stability in Nepal by supporting the country’s successful transition to federalism which is a pre-condition for enhanced economic development and prosperity. States are a critical catalyst for identity, conflict resolution and regional development in Nepal’s federal system. The programme therefore supports the State’s systems and capacities for inter-governmental cooperation, implementation and responsiveness towards citizens’ demands.

Hintergrund | The implementation of the federal Constitution (2015) is not solely a technical but inherently a political negotiation process. It seeks to address the root causes of past conflicts related to poverty, social marginalization, discrimination and poor service delivery. The multi-level system of governance as envisaged by the Constitution of Nepal relies on the principles of cooperation, coordination and co-existence among the different tiers of government. Due to the ongoing and still unclear sequencing of federal implementation processes, contributing to the effective inter-governmental relations between vertical and horizontal tiers of government is essential for the consolidation and functioning of federalism. Building of inclusive institutions, governance systems and processes, often being built from zero, will be the major task and challenge for Nepal in the years to come. The risk of conflicts will remain substantial. It is therefore both a historic opportunity and obligation for development partners to support federalization in Nepal including with a strong focus on the States. |
Ziele | Support the Government of Nepal to implement federalism through well-functioning, inclusive institutions and systems. |
