How exposed the money is
Computed by the app from the evidence cards it links to, with fixed rules, so two briefs on the same scope say the same thing.
Donor concentration and cuts E61
Computed by the app: OECD CRS gross disbursements in this scope, 2024 (card E28), all official donors USD 1,485.7m; donors' total net ODA from OECD DAC1 (card E38).
donor's total aid fell more than 10% in the latest provisional year
- 27% Largest donor's share
- 61% Three largest donors' share
- 22% Share from donors whose total aid fell more than 10% (2024→2025) (USD 320.5 m)
- 8% Rough estimate for 2025, not a forecast: less in this scope if those cuts fell evenly (USD 124.9 m)
Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

OECD Climate-related development finance, recipient perspective, 2022–2024: commitments in current USD millions; retrieved 2026-10-13. Commitments, not disbursements. Bilateral activities count at full value when climate is a principal or significant objective (OECD Rio markers), so the totals are an upper bound; multilateral development banks report only each project's climate component. The 'principal objective or climate component only' row is the stricter measure. Adaptation and mitigation overlap where an activity targets both, so they do not add up to the total. Nepal: USD 790.1m in 2022 → USD 661.3m in 2024 (-16%); peak USD 790.1m in 2022.

Computed by the app: OECD CRS gross disbursements in this scope, 2024 (card E28), all official donors USD 1,485.7m; donors' total net ODA from OECD DAC1 (card E38). Exposed: a donor whose total aid fell more than 10% in the OECD's provisional latest year. Rough estimate method: each donor's 2024 aid in this scope, reduced by the same percentage as its total aid fell from 2024 to 2025 in the OECD's provisional figures, summed over donors that fell more than 10%; donors that did not cut count as unchanged. It assumes each donor cut this country as much as its overall aid; in practice donors protect some countries and cut others harder. The OECD's country figures for 2025 will replace it, usually about a year after the year ends. Only the donors listed on the OECD card are assessed; multilateral donors are not in the OECD's donor totals.

Donor: Finland. Channel of delivery: Recipient Government. Recipient: Nepal. Purpose: Education policy and administrative management; Primary education; Upper secondary education. Disbursed USD 8.3m in 2023 to 2024. Description (donor-reported): Nepal School Education Sector Plan (SESP) is funded jointly by the Government of Nepal and donors covering the whole school sector education in Nepal. The programme was launched in 2021 and extends until 2030. The costed plan is for the first five years. SESP is a continuation to the previous education sector programs SSDP (2016-2021) and SSRP (2009-2016), which Finland also supported. The SSRP achieved significant results, especially in access to school education. In the SSDP, the number of out of school children decreased further, participation particularly in secondary education increased and the focus was increasingly shifted towards improving quality of education. The new School Education Sector Plan SESP is designed based on Nepal's new federal model. SESP focuses in further ensuring equitable access to and participation in school education for all children, enhancing the relevance

Projections are estimates made at the time of the analysis, not observations; a past projection covers a period that has ended without a newer published analysis.

The HDI combines life expectancy, schooling and income per person; the inequality-adjusted HDI discounts it for how unequally these are shared. Multidimensional poverty counts people deprived in several of health, education and living standards at once, from the household survey named in the year column. Displacement counts are IOM's latest national round and are shown only where IOM reports one; check the year before comparing. Nepal HDI: 0.570 in 2013 → 0.622 in 2023 (+9%); peak 0.622 in 2023.
