Health is not among the priority sectors of SDC in Nepal (see the short summary of the Country Programme). Nevertheless SDC supports different specific projects in the field of Health:

Rural Health Development Project (RHDP) which aims in two rural districts at the improvement of the health status of women, girls, boys, and men through participatory development of a locally adapted and affordable system.

Mainstreaming of HIV-Aids prevention which consists in awareness building on HIV/Aids in the projects supported by SDC in other the three sectors (Rural Infrastructure, Occupational skills and Enterprises Development and Renewable Natural Resources).
