Background Basic Education The Lifecycle Perspective
Nepal is a country of tremendous natural diversity, stretching along the central Himalayas. Its physical geography can be divided into five regions that range from the southern terai plains at less than 100 m to the northern high mountains that rise to nearly 8850 m. This enormous range of altitude has resulted in a variety of ecological zones that have had a significant impact on the lives of local inhabitants. In times past, the rugged and remote landscape isolated peoples into distinct communities with their own language and cultures. However, in recent centuries, migration has blurred the geographic boundaries between groups to some extent. The Convention on the Rights of the Child places responsibility on governments to ensure that all children have access to primary education. Nepal is a signatory to Education for All, and is attempting to achieve the Millennium Development Goals. These instruments mean that Nepal is committed to 'ensuring that by 2015, all children-particularly girls, children in difficult circumstances and those belonging to ethnic minorities-have access to complete, free and compulsory primary education of good quality'. This section offers an alternative perspective to the sectoral and more technical chapters that follow. It starts with the birth of a child and follows his/her life to adulthood through the various challenges he/she may meet. While the sectoral chapters provide more detail and analysis, this account can be read as a concise overview of the current situation faced by children and women in Nepal.
