7.2 Aid Effectiveness and Nepal

1. The aid's weight (the Nepal's dependence): the decades'-large share (the development- budget's donor-component (the historical 20-25-percent-plus-and-higher development-share (the hedge: the year-specific citation))); the loan-vs-grant's mix (the concessional's dominance (the grant-element's erosion-watch)).2. The Nepal's aid-policy line: the Foreign-Aid-Policy-2002's era → the Development- Cooperation-Policy-2019 (the DCP (the "grant-first" face (the loan's tightening (the ODA's definition's discipline))); the MoF's Aid-Management-Platform (the AMP (the aid-portal's transparency (the publication's practice))); the aid-in-budget discipline (the on-budget-share's improvement story).3. The effectiveness' Nepal-record (the honest audit): the on-budget-and-on-plan's rise (the alignment's progress); the fragmentation's persistence (the project-spread (the transaction- costs)); the parallel-implementation-units' face (the systems'-bypass's continuing); the TA's- and-the-tied-faces (the capacity's-and-the-cost's debates); the ownership's reality (the donor- driven's critique (the plan-vs-the-portfolio's gap)); the federalism's new-test (the sub-national- aid (the provinces'-and-the-locals' absorption (the post-2017 question))).4. The graduation's cliff (the 2026-LDC-line): the aid's transformation (the concessional's taper (the mix's shift)); the preparation's agenda (the smooth-transition (the BP-for-LDCs' faces (the General-Assembly's resolution-line))).
