Corruption and Anti-Corruption in Nepal. Lessons Learned and Possible Future Initiatives

This study uses a political economy methodology to analyze the context in which corruption is taking place in Nepal, and the dominant formal and informal institutions and actors relevant for strengthening integrity in Nepal’s development. Commissioned by the Norwegian Embassy in Nepal with support from UNDP, the study seeks to understand the context in which corruption occurs, to examine what can be done to promote integrity, transparency and accountability, and to suggest possible entry points for prioritized anti-corruption interventions.
