Housing, land and property issues in Nepal and their consequences for the post-earthquake reconstruction process
This report presents a detailed and qualitative assessment of housing, land and property (HLP) challenges and implications for the post-earthquake recovery in Nepal. It examines how right holders are identified in Nepal, how plots are registered and managed, and which laws are applicable (and applied in practice) in the country. Looking further than medium-term recovery, this report also recommends specific actions to allow progressive rights to become effective in practice. Improving the tenure situation of the most vulnerable groups of Nepal through information campaigns, incentives and institutional capacity building will help reduce inequalities in Nepal. These recommendations are directed to various stakeholders (INGOs, Nepalese NGOs, donors, central and local government bodies and the private sector).
