Long Term Ecological Research Network
In early 2006, following meetings of the CLEANER (Collaborative Large-Scale Engineering Analysis Network for Environmental Research) Social Science Committee and Executive Committee, plans were developed for a workshop on improving social science integration into CLEANER and other NSF Environmental Observatories (EOs). This effort was motivated by the realization that first, social, behavioral, and economic science theory and research were centrally important to resolving the major "grand challenge" questions being addressed by the observatories, and second, more coordinated research efforts across social science, natural science, and engineering disciplines were necessary to "rise to these challenges."

Poverty, Inequality, Violent Conflict, And Welfare Loss: Micro-Level Evidence From Nepal, Mani K. Nepal
Poverty, Inequality, Violent Conflict, And Welfare Loss: Micro-Level Evidence From Nepal, Mani K. Nepal
Economics ETDs
Poverty alleviation has become one of the main global agendas of the twenty first century, but the identification and targeting of the poor is facing fundamental problems due to the lack of required information. We utilize the micro-level estimation technique to estimate household expenditure for the census households using Nepalese household surveys, and estimate different measures of poverty and inequality at the national level as well as at the regional, districts and village levels, and for the different caste/ethnic groups. Our findings indicate that the reduction in poverty during 1995/96 — 2003/04 is not uniform across the villages of Nepal, …

Tratar con todas las cuestiones que tenemos será un trabajo de muchos años y el presente proyecto toma los primeros pasos en este proceso. Llevamos a cabo un proyecto corto durante el verano de 2007 con el fin de llegar a una interpretación más elaborada de aspectos importantes de los datos de proyectos previos. Este proyecto consta un estudio de los sistemas de terrazas agrícolas ubicados en los terrenos altos de la region. El cultivo de plantas en dichos terrenos parece haber formado una parte importante -- pero aún mal entendido -- del sistema grande de subsistencia que existía en …
