Within this framework, the program emphasizes community resilience through livelihood strengthening, climate-resilient agriculture, capacity building and strengthening community-based disaster management system. As part of this initiative, RDC Nepal is supporting local governments to strengthen Disaster Risk Management (DRM) systems in line with: Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act, 2017 Local Government Operation Act, 2017
