Item Problems and Prospects of Women’s Participation In Banking Sector: A Case Study of Kathmandu Valley(Central Department of Economics Tribhuvan University, Kritipur Kathmandu, Nepal, 2012-01) Subedi, SandikaNot available.Item Socio Economic Status of Slum Dweller in Nepal”: "A Case Study of Slum Community in Kathmandu Valley(Central Department of Economics Tribhuvan University Kirtipur, Kathmandu,, 2013-09) Adhikari, Tara PrasadEveryone has a right to live in a decent house, so do the people living in the slum and the squatter communities. It implies that access to various forms of housing should be available. The housing issue of growing squatter population in urban and rural Nepal still remains unaddressed and unsolved due to the lack of specific Policy and programs which creates obstacles in introducing slum upgrading programs and providing securities of tenure. Lack of policy and programs have forced hundreds of thousands of people continue to live in fear and in a vulnerable situation in the slums and squatter settlements in different parts of Nepal. The risk of living in the slums and squatter communities gets higher as these areas becomes targets of development. The capital city Kathmandu is not an exception, rather the problem is more acute and ever growing. As this study showed, almost 40 squatter communities have been in existence in Kathmandu. Some of them are decades old and few are comparatively new. They have migrated to Kathmandu for various reasons and the prominent reason is to attain a secured and better life. They are forced to squat not by choice but by compulsion as they have no access to the current housing market. They are contributing in the city economy by providing valuable service as low paid workers in different areas. However, they have not been integrated into the city development program. Their need and issues like housing, basic facilities and secure tenure poses a big question. Concerned public sectors, private sectors, civil societies and donor agencies need to pay a high attention on slums settlements issues, before the problem becomes too big. Without improving the living condition of the poor and the marginalized people, no development program will be successful neither a city will remain in peace and harmony.
