The multi-dimensionality of scaling extra curricular activities (ECA) program in public schools of Rautahat District

This research explores the scalability of the Extra Curricular Activities After School' intervention in nine public schools located in Yamuna Mai Rural Municipality, Durgabhagwati Rural Municipality, and Rajdevi Municipality of Rautahat district in Nepal. Despite the mandate in Nepal Education Rule 2059 (2002) requiring extracurricular activities for students, many public schools in Rautahat face challenges due to limited budget allocation for ECA resources. In response, scaling science, an emerging paradigm, seeks to understand and address these issues and optimize the impact of scaling similar interventions.
