Item Analyzing the Gaps in Institutional Capacity of Dhulikhel Municipality in Implementing IUDP: A Case Study(I.O.E. Pulchowk Campus, 2022-11) Humagain, SagarIn the realm of urban planning in Nepal, there has been paradigm shift in approaches of urban planning; Master Planning in the 1960s, Structure Planning in the 80s, Integrated Action Planning (IAP) in the 90s and lately (from mid 2010s) Integrated Urban Development Planning. Integrated Urban Development Plan (IUDP) is a long-term strategic plan that integrates multisectoral development, sets long term vision, goals and strategies for sectoral development that are driven by the lead development sector of the town. The review of previous planning approaches clearly suggests that previous planning approaches failed mainly because of lack of legal basis for implementation and weak institutional capacity of the planning in implementing the plans. Besides, the implementation aspect of IUDP is affected by the institutional, policy and legal frameworks pertaining to urban development planning in the country. The review of institutional, policy and legal framework for IUDP implementation, suggest that the preparation of IUDP is supported by prevailing international and national policies on urban development, clear roles and responsibilities of the institutions and legal basis for preparation, however the implementation of IUDP is challenging mainly in terms of (i) lack of legal basis for implementation, (ii) challenge in implementing local land use plans and assuring the compliance with upper level land use plans adhering to federal level Land Use Acts and Regulations and (iii) lack of institutional provision for monitoring and evaluation of IUDP. For this particular study, Dhulikhel Municipality was chosen. Six capacity areas were chosen based upon the review of various tools related to measuring institutional capacity of an organization: (i) human resources and organizational management, (ii) Financial and Economic Management, (iii) legal mandates and tools, (iv) planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, (v) external resources and relations, (vi) political commitment and willingness for implementation.Item Divident Policy of Finance Comapanies in Nepal(Faculty of management, 2008-08) Karn, Nirajan Kumarnot availableItem Public Private Partnership in Sustainable Solid Waste Management: A case of Madhyapur Thimi(I.O.E. Pulchowk Campus, 2023-12) Moktan, PamphaSustainable solid waste management through Public Private Partnership(PPP) projects have been initiated in the municipalities of Nepal in recent years. PPPs combine the skills, knowledge and resources of both the public and private sectors through appropriate sharing of risks, rewards and responsibilities. This research explores roles and responsibilities of the major stakeholders of PPP and how they are working collaboratively to manage solid waste sustainably in Ward 4 of Madhyapur Thimi Municipality. The municipality has initiated best practice of waste management through composting done at Rikishi Compost Pvt. Ltd. This research emphasizes on private sector participation for sustainable practices in waste sector to reduce waste to landfills and create opportunities. Resource recovery has the capacity to reduce financial, environmental and social burdens on the municipality and even unlock new revenue streams. The various enabling and constraints factors for the successful operation of the project were studied through perception of local government, private party and affected households. In addition, the study examined case studies with good practices of SWM through PPP model, reviewed PPP policies and SWM policies focusing on private sector participation for turning waste to valuable resource. The study finds that peoples’ participation, monitoring, training and awareness program for segregation at source is not conducted on regular basis. The service user lack awareness about benefits of waste recovery projects. The local government lacks proper monitoring and feedback mechanism, financial investment and land for the expansion of the project to larger scale. The private company faces difficulty to compete in the market in absence of subsidy to the recovered product, inadequate supply of segregated waste and lacks continued political support. Based on the analysis, strategies for improving enabling environment for successful implementation of PPP in sustainable SWM have been explored.
