Nepal Pilot Baseline Brief

This baseline brief documents the operating context for ILSI's Nepal pilot programme prior to full-scale rollout, drawing on early community outreach, partner consultations and secondary government data. It summarises baseline patterns in recruitment practice, common contract risks reported by prospective migrants, and existing awareness of grievance channels across the pilot's initial target districts. The brief establishes the reference point against which ILSI's research team will measure the pilot's effect on orientation attendance, contract literacy and early helpline engagement over subsequent reporting periods.
