Community is an active agent to economic development. Its citizens, constituents, and stakeholders have knowledge, experience, and capacities to contribute to sustain and scale up their initiatives driven by their own sustainable and resilient development. The Core Inclusion Nepal Program (CINP) comes from the diversity of social contexts and represents different scale and stages of sustainable development in its evolution. While, the implementation of CINP captures accumulated knowledge about the community organization, its success requires application of experience to solutions addressing local concerns through community leadership, learning, and actions.
CINP is an inclusive program for NGOs, CBOs, and CSOs, collectively referred to as community organizations, to build their capacity; close the funding gaps of the organizations at greater danger to the survival, and innovate and adapt to disruptive effects of Covid-19 pandemic by ensuring the income re-generation capacity of the organizations including those at high risk of discontinuation through Multiple Donor Support in a single web platform hosted by MS. Symbiosis Consultancy Private Limited thereby bringing professional social-volunteering inputs into the platform from around the world. The single web-platform, hereinafter, referred to as CINP Multiple Donor Platform (CMDP) enrolls more than 50 donor entities to synthesize socio-economic development agenda in Nepal through rigorous Fund and Program Level Activity (FPLA) Guidelines, hereinafter referred to as CINP Guidelines (CINP-g) for the promotion of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) by putting the rising inequities, which the recent decades have seen, more firmly on its agenda through globalization, economic integration and web of information through which CINP knowledge and practices are transferred and scaled up.
The humanitarian crisis due to Covid-19 has brought an onslaught of social issues such as a surge in extreme poverty, discrimination, exclusion, and gender-based violence. The widespread misinformation leading to adverse incorporation and social exclusions are also worth-noticeable, amidst which, the CINP aims to develop an appropriate course of action, allocate and utilize the resources of the community organization and SDG participants in their present geographical settings, and collaborate with community actors and stakeholders to provide practical, prompt, and coordinated interventions for social changes and strengthen opportunities for strong commitment to inclusion with high legitimacy regime and grassroots development outcomes. Promoting inclusive, equitable, and sustainable modes of development embedded with elements of resilience and social vulnerability reduction are the main agenda of the CINP. The CINP shall provide unprecedented opportunities to community organizations to illustrate their development strategies by addressing multiple priorities to meet their multiple objectives.
The CINP has been designed to bring about, or support processes to bring about, major positive change in the lives of the CINP Approved Beneficiaries (CAB), also referred to as Potential Partner Entities (PPE), and other stakeholders. CINP has been formed to serve as a means to a broader end at the core of its work, and the programs it delivers. The CINP aims to achieve maximum positive impact through FPLA by working rigorously on its vision and mission as effectively as possible with a strong system of internal organizational governance in order to assure that
-
CINP exists to further community interests with continuous support of its staffs, consultants and funding agencies/entities, who reside in and operate through CINP Multiple Donor Platforms (CMDP); and
-
CINP resources and services are being put to the best possible use with high-end resource ownership, accountability, culture, ethics, and behaviors and a clear focus at FPLA.
To effectuate real change in people’s lives, CINP develops and intends to deliver programs by using CINP community reform strategy through effective communication among its stakeholders, beneficiaries, and donor agencies, better aligned with its multiple network centers, beneficiary-centered research, capacity development plan, advocacy and professional debate for mainstream community development, standard program management and information system with a pool of baseline data and information resources, and regional focused group to be overseen by CINP Innovation and Donor Coordination Unit (CIDCU) to facilitate CMDP and achieve the intended impacts in CINP Impact and Domain Areas (CIDA).
