4、 transformative promise of the 2030 agenda.It compels development actors to consider the furthest behind first and to tackle the discrimination and exclusion that drive inequality.Within Development Initiatives(DIs)Poverty and Inequality(P&I)programme,we use our expertise in data and evidence to pro

5、duce outputs that support our partners and allies to better understand who has been left behind,in what ways,and why.DIs LNOB assessments have been developed to apply a systematic methodology that:1.Identifies and reviews relevant existing data.2.Analyses existing data to answer a locally relevant a

6、nd targeted policy question.During 2022 and 2023,four assessments were conducted in Kenya,Uganda,Benin and Nepal.Each assessment had a distinct focus that was identified and developed with local partners.The LNOB assessment in Nepal sought to understand data and data infrastructure at the municipal

7、level,considering how data can be used to inform local decision-making to reduce poverty and inequality.This approach was applied in two municipalities:Tulsipur and Simta.This report presents the first part of the LNOB assessment in Tulsipur.It is based on DIs data landscaping approach and assesses

8、the range,quality and utility of existing data that can potentially inform issues relating to poverty and inequality in the municipality.It also assesses and makes recommendations about the underlying factors that could strengthen Tulsipurs data ecosystem and enable improved and accessible evidence

9、to be available in the future.In November 2022,DI and Backward Society Education(BASE)held a co-creation workshop in Tulsipur.This was attended by representatives from Tulsipurs municipal government,the Asia Foundation,the Sewa Foundation,the NGO Federation of Nepal,Didi Ghar and Apanaga Samhua.In t

10、he co-creation workshop,stakeholders identified priority research questions and discussed the methodological approach.Based on this,DI and BASE adapted DIs general analytical framework for data landscaping in line with the set parameters.The team then conducted desk-based reviews of grey literature

11、and face-to-face key informant interviews(KIIs)between December 2022 and January 2023.KIIs were conducted with 10 actors from 10 different departments of the local government.A final dissemination workshop was held in Tulsipur on 20 March 2023,with a total of 34 participants representing various org

12、anisations.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 3 Part 1 of this report describes the quantity and quality of data included in the data inventory.Part 2 describes how this data is used in the municipality.Part 3 reviews the strength of the poverty and inequality data ecos

13、ystem as a whole,beyond the properties of individual data sources,and Part 4 provides recommendations for strengthening the local data ecosystem.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 4 Part 1:Tulsipurs poverty and inequality data inventory The study team identified 11 data

14、 systems that provide information on poverty and inequality in Tulsipur;five administrative data systems,one survey and five mixed-method sources(i.e.unique sources that collate data from administrative systems,official surveys and censuses).The identified systems produce data on social security pay

15、ments(e.g.allowances for children and senior citizens);employment;asset ownership;education(e.g.enrolment rates and not-in-school numbers);health(e.g.vaccination and nutrition);violence against women;and disability(e.g.prevalence).The study team was unable to identify data on dimensions of poverty r

22、rm a leave-no-one-behind approach,it is necessary to identify individual and group-based characteristics that may influence poverty outcomes.To enable this,data must capture variables relating to multiple dimensions of poverty,such as health or access to electricity,but also include variables that c

23、an allow for disaggregation by characteristics that may be associated with inequality and exclusion within a population,such as gender,age or geography.All of the data sources included in the data inventory produce data disaggregated by gender.Therefore,we can conclude that gender disaggregation has

24、 been successfully mainstreamed into data collection activities in Tulsipur.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 6 Conversely,data disaggregated by geography(i.e.down to the ward or facility levels)is only collected by six of the data systems,and data disaggregated by age

25、 is only collected by five of the data systems(this does not include the education data available to us,as this was disaggregated by grade or year group).In addition to this,only three of the data sources produce data disaggregated by ethnicity.2 However,the lack of data disaggregated by ethnicity i

26、s not always due to this data not being collected.For example,administrative data is collected by ward offices when they issue disability identification cards.Initially,information is recorded on paper forms,and it is subsequently uploaded to an Excel file.Ethnicity data is collected on the paper fo

27、rms,but it is routinely omitted from digital uploads.The paper forms then sit in storage and are not used.Stakeholders say the omissions are due to limited digital and human resource capacities.The type of disaggregated data collected least often is(types of)disability data.This data is only collect

28、ed by one of the identified data systems.The omissions of these characteristics(e.g.geographic location,age,ethnicity and disability)from datasets prevents users from being able to use those datasets to generate insights about these dimensions via quantitative analysis(e.g.investigating how disabili

29、ty intersects with health outcomes),and significantly limits the range of available evidence.Collecting and digitally storing disaggregated data across all data systems in Tulsipur would better enable intersectional analysis.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 7 Figure 1

31、pload data to the DRR portal on a daily basis.This means users get to access this information in real time.3 However,data is collected and uploaded to other systems on a much more infrequent basis,meaning actors rely on information that may no longer be accurate or relevant.For example,data for the

32、IEMIS is collected twice a year at the beginning and end of the academic calendar and is uploaded to the digital system by headteachers and the municipalitys education department around the same time it is collected.The schedule followed for the Prime Ministers employment program is similarly infreq

33、uent;data for it is only collected once a year(in February and March)and is uploaded to the digital system about a month later(in March and April).0123456789101112DisabilityEthnicityAgeWardGenderNumber of data systemsType of disaggregation LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit

35、ain source of evidence for local decision-makers.Data sharing and open data Data from the identified systems is generally not accessible in Tulsipur municipality;data from only three of the identified data systems is openly available,and in the case of two of these data systems,this is in the form o

36、f aggregated statistics,not microdata.Inaccessible data creates an obvious blockade preventing data use.Figure 2:The majority of data in Tulsipur is not openly accessible Proportions of open-access and inaccessible data in Tulsipur Source:DI,2023.However,there is reason to believe this will change i

37、n the future.Tulsipurs municipal government recently established an Integrated Data Management System(IDMS).The IDMS will pull data from other data systems semi-automatically,store it in a central database and display it on an open webpage.Presently,it is being piloted and some examples of anonymise

38、d data on civil registration,cooperatives,health,education,and agricultural services are available through it.While the implementation of the IDMS is good for data sharing and open data,it does raise concerns about privacy.This is because there is a risk that the individuals or Inaccessible data73%O

39、pen-access microdata9%Open-access aggregate statistics18%LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 9 communities the published data is about will be identifiable.Nepals federal government has taken steps to make data protection more robust,namely through Article 29 of the Cons

40、titution(2015),the Individual Privacy Act(2075),the Muluki Criminal Code(2076),and the Individual Privacy Regulation(2077).However,the majority of staff in Tulsipur who will upload data to the IDMS are not aware of these laws.Ensuring staff are not only aware of these laws but also understand and ab

41、ide by them is critically important.If this is done it will mean standards are kept,and it will reduce the risks associated with individuals relying on their own discretion to judge if something should or should not be published.This is especially important from a poverty and inequality perspective:

42、if sensitive data about vulnerable individuals/communities is uploaded to the IDMS,it could put these people at a disproportionately increased risk of harm.Metadata Complete metadata allows actors to understand the data they are working with more promptly and thoroughly,and this encourages data use.

43、Four of the 11 sources are accompanied by complete metadata;these are the VERSP-MIS,IEMIS,Health Management Information System and Employment Management Information System.A further four of the 11 data sources are accompanied by partially complete metadata.For example,the single Excel sheet where da

44、ta for the senior citizen identity card,Smart Daughter Programme and disability identity card is collated,contains some metadata but is missing critical information such as the exact date the data was collected.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 10 Part 2:The use of pov

45、erty and inequality data in Tulsipur In general,the use of poverty and inequality data in Tulsipur is relatively low.For the most part,decisions are based on other priorities because actors have low levels of data literacy,do not fully appreciate the importance of evidence,perceive the quality of th

46、e available data as too poor to use,4 and/or make decisions to meet other objectives(such as maintaining patronage networks).Accessibility,particularly of microdata,is also a challenge that obstructs more data use.The culture of not sharing data is common across Nepal,and it even pervades the federa

47、l level of government:for example,the national statistical office does not currently have a policy for sharing or selling microdata,and,as such,it is not planning to share the latest census data with municipalities.However,the establishment of an Integrated Data Management System(IDMS)means that Tul

48、sipur municipality is well placed to make improvements.Despite these challenges,a number of interviewees told us they are interested in developing their use of evidence.For example,the Deputy Mayor is planning to identify key indicators for measuring poverty in the municipality,which align with loca

49、l needs,and will prepare an index based on them.However,the municipal government has not yet drafted a plan on how this will be achieved.Moreover,other participants at the project workshop suggested that increased data use could be encouraged by departments attempting to analyse existing data,identi

50、fy problems with it(such as data gaps),and find solutions(e.g.additional indicators)that can be applied during upcoming data-collection cycles.LNOB Nepal:Data landscaping in Tulsipur municipality/devinit.org 11 Part 3:The foundations of Tulsipurs poverty and inequality data ecosystem Governance and
