| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
At the beginning of this research project, the research site was destroyed by the 7.8 magnitude earthquake on April 25, 2015. Therefore, together with the already set objective of finding out the impacts of access to various infrastructure services on human development in rural Nepal, it was also aimed to examine the socioeconomic impacts of the earthquake. Despite the adverse situation in the research site, all planned activities were completed on time, and the objectives were achieved. The research outputs were presented at some international and national conferences, two papers already published in the Development in Practice (a Routledge journal) and the Global Social Welfare (a Springer Nature journal), and several others are under publication process. The research output was also presented at the local level where the household survey was conducted.
