Result sharing seminars were organized in Nepal. Two seminars were organized at different level of local governments: one at Bharatpur metropolitan city office on 5th December 2019 and second at the ward office Sukranagar on 7th December 2019. At the ward level seminar, the local government - Ward Chairperson, Secretary, Ward Members, committee members of the selected Tole Bikas Sansthas and local representatives like teachers were present. While in the metropolitan city office, elected authorities, government officials, university professionals, local media, and NGO representatives participated in the seminar. There were 44 participants in the ward level seminar and 38 in the metropolitan level seminar. Both the district and ward level government representatives acknowledged that such types of result sharing seminars were helpful in evidence‐based policy formulations. Constructive feedback was received from the participants regarding future research topics, research methods, and data analysis.
