The programme has been implemented in two-thirds of the rural districts in the country thus far, and had helped create or support over 51,000 micro-businesses and generated employment for 52,374 people in these areas as of 2010. In Nepal, as part of its Ninth Periodic Plan (1997-2002), the government launched a micro-enterprise development programme which extends entrepreneurship trainings, consultancy services, technical assistance and credit to rural villages, with the aim of improving the performance and growth of the country’s cottage and small-scale industries. Governments in low-income countries often emphasize the importance of micro-enterprise development as a means of reducing rural poverty.
