About the Community Development Programme (CDP) Project:
The UK's Department for International Development (DFID) is implementing a three year Non-State Led Service Delivery Component of the Nepal Local Governance Support Programme (NLGSP) named 'Community Development Programme' between November 2014 and October 2017. The CDP will provide direct service delivery to the deprived communities of a total 18 districts of which 9 are difficult Terai districts and 9 remote districts of the mid and far-west development regions of Nepal. The main objective of the CDP is to ensure local governments are more capable, through intensified support for 18 districts that have particular problems delivering services (for example remoteness and insecurity). The overall goal of CDP is to help reduce poverty complementing to LGCDP results.
