UNDP with support from the Government of Japan is collaborating with the Government of Nepal to implement ‘Livelihoods Improvement and Disaster Resilience Enhancement in the Areas Affected by the Jajarkot Earthquake’. The overarching goal of this project is to support effective earthquake recovery and long-term resilience by enhancing government capacity for service delivery, support reconstruction, and promote revitalized livelihoods. The project will be implemented in 5 local governments, namely Nalgad Municipality, Bheri Municipality and Barekot Rural Municipality of Jajarkot District, and Aathbiskot Municipality and Sanibheri Rural Municipality of Rukum West District. The key government stakeholders include National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA), Ministry of Federal Affairs and General Administration (MoFAGA), Karnali Province Ministry of Land Management, Agriculture and Cooperatives (MoLMAC), Office of Chief Minister and Council of Ministers (OCMCM), District Administration Offices (DAOs) of Jajarkot and Rukum West districts, and local governments. One of the key activities of this project includes construction/operation of cold stores to store agricultural produces and reduce post-harvest loss which can support linkage of these produces to both local and urban/regional markets with financial gain to local farmers. This work intends to conduct a feasibility study for potential development of cold storage facilities in Rukum West and Jajarkot districts. The study will cover technical, financial and operation and maintenance aspects of cold stores in the project area with a clear recommendation on next steps.
In this regard, Livelihoods Improvement and Disaster Resilience Enhancement in the Areas Affected by the Jajarkot Earthquake Project has launched a bid document to conduct feasibility study for potential development of cold storage facilities in Jajarkot and Rukum West districts.
