Thanks to @BEAMExchange for publishing our recent analysis on post-Covid recovery options for Nepali SMEs in agri and tourism sectors. Really hope to get back to Nepal in due course to further support the economy to bounce back. beamexchange.org/resources/1383/
We recently worked with @Nathan_Inc to recommend a roadmap to post-COVID recovery for #Nepal’s #agriculture & #tourism SMEs. Find out more about how robust post-COVID policy frameworks and incentives could help Nepali SMEs to bounce back from the pandemic bit.ly/2Q2XwBw
Today @BorisJohnson suggested more #UKAid should go to Ukraine than Zambia. Extreme poverty has fallen to near zero in Ukraine but more than half of Zambians have less than $1.90/day. Ukraine may be strategically important but #ODA should focus on the poorest #LeaveNoOneBehind
Boris uses other OECD countries as yardstick but there is “extensive evidence that merging foreign affairs departments and aid departments erode international reputations, and actually are so costly and disruptive there is very little benefit." - Aus & Canada examples cited.

"Make no mistake, this decision will do nothing but hurt the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people." Boris Johnson's in the House of Commons evades questions as to whether development charities and other development professionals were consulted prior to this decision.

Opponents say the announcement marks the culmination of a slow-drain on @DFID_UK's influence, and worry about what it means for the future direction of UK aid. Reporting by @willrworley 👇
DFID's creation came - with reason - after 3 decades of strategic and security interests affecting the UK's choice of which countries received aid; and by the need to support UK’s balance of payments creating a link between overseas aid & British exports cgdev.org/publication/re…
If @DFID_UK & @foreignoffice merger is justified on grounds that it will safeguard #GlobalBritain, it is worth noting that independent cross-party @CommonsIDC came to a very different conclusion last week: this "will ultimately undermine our reputation and influence overseas"
"The general reliance on international staff for positions which could be performed just as well, if not better, by local hires is difficult to justify..." theguardian.com/global-develop… /1

Live-streaming my favourite librarian @SotiriosAlpanis talking about his incredibly forward thinking @britishlibrary imaging hack day At the @rijksmuseum digital photography conference in Amsterdam. Such a cool idea from him and his team!
Great to hear a range of views on increasing women's inclusion in business in #Nepal from an informed & articulate gender-balanced panel at the Women in Business session at @investinnepal19. #investinnepal
Siddhant Pandey, CEO, Business Oxygen-BO2, speaks about experience investing in #Nepali SMEs & steps to ensure stronger pipeline of women-owned biz in #Nepal. 23% of direct jobs supported by BO2's portfolio are held by women, 250% increase since first investment. #investinnepal
Hon MP - @NepalGov Dr Bimala Poudyal speaks on challenges for #womeninbiz: need to breakdown patriarchal structures, improved mobility, sharing unpaid care work - which frees up time for productive work & together builds confidence for women entrepreneurs #investinNepal
Dr Rajan Bhattarai, @PM_Nepal Office, on challenges of translating policy into practice for #WEE in #Nepal. Positive incentives (eg tax rebate for women registered biz) but uptake needed to strengthen women's econ participation to achieve prosperity #womeninbiz #investinNepal
Srini Nagarajan MD & Head of South Asia at @CdcGroup speaks on what #CDCGroup is doing to promote gender-inclusive investment in #Nepal including taking on safeguarding issues, unconscious bias, data based approach to gender inequality. #womeninbiz #investinNepal
Anupama Khunjeli, 1st female CEO of Nepali bank speaks about experience leading #MegaBankNepal + changes needed for Nepal’s private sector to better include women. @DFIDNepal helped support Mega Bank reach rural areas, including through branchless banking. #investinnepal
Happening now: @DFIDNepal & South Asian Women Development Forum host Women in Business Session at @investinnepal19. We’ll be following the discussions, including more women in business in #Nepal #womeninbiz. Supported by partners @ecorysuk & @Nathan_Inc #investinnepal
We are also aware of challenges women face, such as low productivity sectors, under-paid, underestimation of women in the formal economy. It is a mindset we need to change ~ Pramila Acharya Rijal, President, SAWDF #investinnepal
