  15. Post Earthquake Recovery and Reconstruction Policy/strategy • Central policy/plan decentralised implementation • Apply the build back better principle • Owner driven reconstruction approach in private housing and Minimize resettlement but focus on integrated settlement • Maximum utilisation of local resources, skills, labour • Inclusiveness – core of reconstruction programme • An effective institutional set up -NAR • Strong government leadership in aid coordination • Capacity building and good governance National Planning Commission 14

  16. Factors Affecting Reconstruction • Initial momentum for reconstruction lost as NPC concentrated on budget preparation and government in constitution making • Protracted political conflicts and its ramifications affecting reconstruction • Delay in bringing out Reconstruction Policies and reactivate National Authority for Reconstruction • Low level of government guidance at the time of project development by development partners • Low Economic Growth National Planning Commission 15
