Districts of Nepal: Indicators of Development Update 2003

This book was first published in English in 2003. It presents the results of an assessment carried out by ICIMOD and Nepal's Central Bureau of Statistics supported by SNV-Nepal, using data from the tenth National Population Census held in 2001, supplemented by other relevant data, and is an update of a previous study made in 1997. The districts are classed as belonging to one of three levels of development in terms of each of a number of primary indicators, three major indices, and a single overall development index. The report provides a useful pointer to the comparative development status of Nepal\'s districts, as well as an indication of the changes that have taken place.
