National Environment Policy 2019 (राष्ट्रिय वातावरण नीति २०७६)

Summary

The National Environment Policy 2076 of Nepal seeks to address severe environmental challenges caused by rapid urbanization and industrialization. Past fragmented efforts have proven inadequate, necessitating a new, integrated policy. Key objectives include sustainable development, improved governance, resource conservation, and climate change mitigation. Strategies focus on environmental integration into development plans, multi-sectoral collaboration, and strengthened monitoring. The policy emphasizes public participation, equitable resource access, and balancing economic growth with sustainability. Research, capacity development, and clear roles for central, state, and local governments are crucial for effective implementation, aiming for a sustainable future for Nepal.
