In Nepal, Girls' and Womens' Education Policy Research Activity (GWE-PRA) investigated the impact of women’s integrated literacy programs on the country’s development by examining measures of socio-economic status, as well as indicators of women’s social and economic development, including: 1) literacy and education, 2) children's education, 3) family and reproductive health, 4) participation in income-earning activities, 5) community participation, and 6) political participation. This research presents cross-sectional comparative analyses of these indicators in the baseline year (referred to throughout this document as Year 1) and measures changes in the indicators over a period of three years. The study examined two integrated literacy programs: the Basic and Primary Education Project (BPEP) and the Health Education and Adult Literacy (HEAL) program.
