Evaluering
Training for development An evaluation of the Kathmandu University – Community Education Project
The Project named ‘Kathmandu University Community Education Project’ (KU CEP) intends to reach to the rural communities through the university outreach programme in the field of education, community development and business incubation. The project is a partnership between Kathmandu University (KU) and HimalPartner, and was started in 2010 (planning) and implemented in its pilot phase in 2011-2012. It has been further extended till a project within the period of 2013-2015 through a widening scope of activities and geographical areas with funding through HimalPartner. It is time to do an overall evaluation of the project period 2013-2015 to assess whether or not KU CEP has achieved what it was set out to accomplish and what the impact has been. The project was intended to end in 2015, but KU has applied HimalPartner/Digni for one year extension for the CEP project in 2016. Due to the earthquake and KUs role organizing volunteers in the aftermath and using the skills and resources available for relief work they plan to continue to contribute in the rebuilding phase with offering relevant services in cooperation the affected communities.
