“…Zaman (2016), Ahmad and Saleem (2014), Han et al (2014), and Canfield (2011) have revealed the positive, predictive, and significant relation between worldwide governance indicators and different dependent variables such as economic growth, human development, domestic product, educational outcomes or country growth (Khadka, 2021). However, some other researchers found some dimensions of WGIs that negatively correlate to educational outcomes and others such as government effectiveness with GDP in South Asian countries.…”

It is believed that governance has a direct impact on all sectors of the state. This paper aims to examine the effect of governance on the tourism sector by adopting the Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGIs) produced by Kaufmann et al. (1999). For analyzing tourism sector performance, the annual number of tourists arriving in Nepal and their average length of stay have been taken separately from 2005 to 2019 as dependent variables. The six indicators of WGIs are taken as independent variables which include political stability and absence of violence, government effectiveness, voice and accountability, regulatory quality, rule of law, and control of corruption. The data were collected from secondary sources and analyzed by descriptive statistics using multiple-line graphs and regression models. The result shows that most of the WGIs insignificantly explained both the number of tourists and their length of stay. The finding differs for political stability and the absence of violence which significantly explains the relationship with the average length of stay per tourists. In a nutshell, the study concludes that governance-related indicators have not found a significant impact on tourist arrival in Nepal. Further, the findings of this study suggest reforming the existing level of all worldwide governance indicators for better performance of the tourism sector.

“…It can be argued that the index incorporates other measures of education development, such as education expenditure, education personnel, vocational education development, and so on, by including the mean of years of schooling for adults aged 25 years and older and the expected years of schooling for children of school-entering age in the index. Previous studies have widely used this index to capture differences in countries' levels of education development and their subsequent evolution over time (Bryant and Javalgi 2016;Abubakar et al 2018;Khadka 2021).…”

The paper explores the relationship between education, digitalization, and financial development between 1996 and 2019 with the aim of showcasing the differences between developed and emerging economies in Europe. We use a Bayesian VAR framework that includes variables related to education, digitalization, and financial development, as well as several endogenous variables to control for differences between countries in terms of nominal GDP growth, unemployment rate, and trade openness. Our findings clearly demonstrate the dynamic interdependence between financial development—including its two main components, financial institutions, and financial markets, digitalization, and education. Furthermore, we find that education is a leading variable in the financial development–education–digitalization nexus, whereas financial development and digitalization are laggard variables. These findings open possibilities for influencing joint policies on digitalization, education, and financial development, particularly in emerging European countries.

“…Their meaningful participation in the community development process could be viewed as 'breaking the silence' which exists as women's culture of silence (Freire, 2005) in patriarchal societies. Their participation ensures their voice at public forums and makes social institutions accountable (Khadka, 2021). The initiation of gender-inclusive governance helps to achieve Goal 5 of the Sustainable development Goals, which is "achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls" (United Nations, 2021, p. 36).…”

Participation is an important dimension of good governance. In Nepal, there seem positive changes in women's participation in School Management Committees (SMC), Parent Teachers Association (PTA), and school administration but the participation of women has become a far-reaching goalin public school governance. This article is about exploring how women's participation could contribute to promoting good governance practices in community schools. Authors have applied an interpretative inquiry and participation and feminist standpoint theories to make out the meaning in this study which was carried in two public schools in Lalitpur, Nepal. The finding reveals that his meaningful representation of women in school governance is likely to minimize the governance challenges such as absenteeism, low parents’ participation, poor resource mobilization, transparency, and accountability.These positive transformations contribute to the community development process. However, enabling environment for women is needed to ensure their meaningful representation in school governance structures. This study is beneficial to educationists, planners, and development workers in Nepal.
