Nepal Integrated Governance Project (IGP) Midline Survey 2017

Description

The IGP Midline Survey was conducted in 2017, a follow-up of the 2015 baseline with another endline planned for 2019. This midline was conducted by CAMRIS International. The household survey includes questions concerning implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), access to justice, access to government service, service effectiveness and accountability. On broader themes, it captures inclusion and tolerance, peaceful conflict resolution, and participation and governance. It carries the themes from the Democratic Human Right and Governance assessment conducted in 2012, describing the main DRG problem in Nepal as a “government effectiveness gap,” in which the Government of Nepal (GON) fails to meet the increasing demands for inclusion. USAID/Nepal’s first development objective focuses on more inclusive and effective governance. To address this gap and to achieve the objective of effective governance and political inclusion in Nepal, four conditions must be achieved—peace, accountability, civic participation, and better performance. Without peace, human development is not possible, and without human development, peace is not sustainable. The Mission has focused on targeting these conditions at the local level, while pushing for national level accountability and reform to close the government effectiveness gap on the ground. It focuses on key performance indicators from the USAID Nepal Mission Performance Management Plan (PMP). Data collection was started from first week of September and completed by mid of October 2017. Interviews were carried out face-to-face with data collected on electronic device among household members aged 18 to 65 years. The answers were based on self-reported response. Two distinct samples were designed to create a comparison of USAID targeted VDCs and the rest of the nation. The national sample consisted of 786 respondents and the USAID sample consisted of 1208 respondents scattered over 42 districts out of 75. The ward (smallest administrative unit) was the sampling unit. The ward was segmented into 9-12 homogenous clusters. And three out of 9-12 clusters were randomly selected. Following that, a household listing operation was performed. After doing that, households were selected using systematic random sampling. Within each household, random selection of household members was done using KISH grid technique recruiting an equal number of male and female from each cluster.
