  Project Description:

  The EPSP (Emergency Peace Support Project) is a US$ 50 million equivalent project being implemented by the MOPR (Ministry of Peace and Reconstruction) under IDA (International Development Association) grant with an objective of contributing to the peace process of Nepal by providing interim cash transfers and services to eligible conflict-affected groups and by increasing transparency and accountability in the delivery of these benefits.

  The EPSP supports Nepal’s post-conflict transition by funding in three core areas: i) rehabilitation support to the conflict-affected families and individuals; ii) cash benefits to the families and widows of those killed as a result of conflict; and iii) capacity building of key institutional structures in support of peace process and project management support.

  The project duration will be September 19, 2008 to June 30, 2014.

  Currently, Alliance Nepal is implementing skills training to 600 Conflict Affected Peoples (CAPs) in seven districts; Kanchanpur, Kapilbastu, Rupandehi, Dhanusha, Okhaldhunga, Morang and Jhapa for the year of 2013 and link them into employment.
