The Program for Accountability in Nepal (PRAN) has been crucial in strengthening practical training, action learning and networking aimed at developing the capacity of civil society and government actors to promote social accountability in Nepal. The program has been designed to respond to a unique opportunity in the process of state building in Nepal. Limited transparency and accountability undermines governmental capacity for service delivery and hampers the implementation of important reforms. Issues of exclusion are especially significant at the district and village levels, with vulnerable groups poorly represented in decision making bodies, prejudiced in their ability to access services and unable to voice their concerns.
