"I am certain that this partnership will go beyond the SSDP timeline to ensure Nepal will meet its commitment to the citizens made with the Sustainable Development Goals."</p> <p>At the meeting, the EU and UNICEF handed over the SSDP Joint Financing Arrangement to Minister Shrestha.

The mechanism of pooled funding and expertise is expected to bring down the transaction cost significantly and enhance the impact to progress in the sector.</p> <p>At a recent meeting called by the Minister for Education Gopal Man Shrestha, JFA partners discussed SSDP implementation.</p> <p>The EU Ambassador Rensje Teerink highlighted the challenging and exciting context in which the SSDP was developed and is currently being implemented on the backdrop of a profound and historic state restructuring.</p> <p>"It was an intense and delightful honour for the EU to co-chair together with Finland the education working group during the last twelve months in Nepal at the crucial time, when the SSDP was finalised," said Teerink, who is soon to move to Bangladesh. "We will strongly stay engaged as an active partner and will continue to extend our support to the government and our dear friends from UNICEF and Norway as new education co-focal points."</p> <p> </p> <p>Minister for Education, Gopal Man Shrestha thanked the development partners for the strong support to the sector over the past years and in the conception of the new education sector plan.</p> <p>"The government recognizes the right to education as a fundamental human right and therefore has and will give priority to this sector. However, in order to reach those most vulnerable and in need of education, more resources will be needed," said Minister Shrestha. "I am certain that this partnership will go beyond the SSDP timeline to ensure Nepal will meet its commitment to the citizens made with the Sustainable Development Goals."</p> <p>At the meeting, the EU and UNICEF handed over the SSDP Joint Financing Arrangement to Minister Shrestha. The JFA represents a combined commitment of the Development Partners of almost US$ 485 million to support implementation of SSDP. In addition to this, the wider Development Partner Group will support the SSDP implementation through non-budget support and technical assistance as well.</p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2017-08-27', 'modified' => '2017-08-27', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '6260', 'image' => null, 'article_date' => '2017-08-27 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '16' ) ), (int) 12 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '6476', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'EU to Provide Rs 24.2 Million for Flood Victims', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'In response to the devastating floods and landslides that have swept across large parts of Nepal since mid-August, the European Commission has decided to provide €200,000 (NRs 24.2 million) in humanitarian aid to assist the most-affected families in various districts across the country.

However, in order to reach those most vulnerable and in need of education, more resources will be needed," said Minister Shrestha. "I am certain that this partnership will go beyond the SSDP timeline to ensure Nepal will meet its commitment to the citizens made with the Sustainable Development Goals."</p> <p>At the meeting, the EU and UNICEF handed over the SSDP Joint Financing Arrangement to Minister Shrestha.

However, in order to reach those most vulnerable and in need of education, more resources will be needed," said Minister Shrestha. "I am certain that this partnership will go beyond the SSDP timeline to ensure Nepal will meet its commitment to the citizens made with the Sustainable Development Goals."</p> <p>At the meeting, the EU and UNICEF handed over the SSDP Joint Financing Arrangement to Minister Shrestha.
