Resumen
Descripción
The main objective of the Country
Environmental Analysis (CEA) in Nepal is to identify
opportunities for enhancing the overall performance of
select environmental management systems through improvements
in the effectiveness of institutions, policies, and
processes. CEA has been built upon the following three
primary study components: (a) an examination of the
environmental issues associated with infrastructure
development, focusing on the Environmental Impact Assessment
(EIA) process in priority growth sectors; (b) an analysis of
environmental issues linked to rapid urbanization, focusing
on the growing problems of solid waste, poor air quality,
and industrial pollution, and the resulting impacts on
environmental health; and (c) an analysis of the policy and
institutional underpinnings related to key environmental
management systems at the national and local levels. This
report provides the basis for a discussion of the challenges
and options facing Nepal in regard to improving the
performance of key environmental management systems and
institutions to support its growth and poverty alleviation agenda.
