The United States is the world’s largest provider of development assistance, distinguished by its transparent and grant-based approach, which requires no repayment. These programs are designed through close collaboration with recipient nations, ensuring they address specific needs and priorities effectively. In Nepal, USAID has forged strong partnerships with the Government of Nepal, local communities, and other stakeholders to tackle pressing challenges such as disaster risk reduction and climate change. At the same time, these efforts support advancements in healthcare, education, governance, agriculture, and energy sectors.
In 2024, USAID Nepal allocated $15 million to implement impactful programs across diverse areas. These initiatives have improved access to quality education, promoted sustainable tourism, empowered local businesses to enhance their performance, and advanced clean energy solutions. Each program underscores a commitment to fostering sustainable growth and addressing Nepal’s unique development needs.
The United States remains steadfast in its commitment to Nepal’s prosperity, focusing on fostering economic growth, strengthening democratic governance, and enhancing transparency. By working together, the two nations continue to build a foundation for a brighter, more sustainable future for all Nepalis.
