Abstract: This exploration of challenges and barriers to inclusion in Nepal elaborates a conceptual framework for education development in a diverse society. As Nepal is a highly diverse, caste-based, multi-ethnic, and multi-linguistic society with very low development indicators, the article focuses on barriers to education and related issues across different socioeconomic groups.

“…School-level education now falls under the jurisdiction of municipal government, and the involvement of local government and local communities can be expected to deliver better results, as the beneficiaries of education play a central role in school management. In a diverse society like Nepal, local government autonomy in managing local activities such as school education can promote more effective governance according to local needs and preferences (Neupane, 2020) Education in Nepal has taken a considerable leap on its own. There are now 35,222 elementary and secondary schools and 10 universities with more than 1,400 colleges and campuses throughout Nepal (2016).…”

Neupane (2020) contends that it is necessary to map available resources for education spending to learn both resource gaps and demand/supply gaps. She argues that a number of concerns should be addressed, such as identifying the timeline, necessary institutional framework and further programs to achieve the policy objectives and goals (step 4).…”

“…Improvements to catch up with Indonesia from other developed countries need to be done, especially in the education sector, because education can be a reflection of the quality of a person and a country. (Guo et al, 2019;Nasrullah et al, 2018;Neupane, 2019;Sinakou et al, 2018).
