The Embassy of Switzerland in Nepal is seeking consultancy services for the development of a Small and Medium Enterprise (SME)-based tourism project. The project will focus on tourism in Nepal, specifically in Koshi, Madhesh, and Lumbini provinces. The consultancy will be divided into two parts: 1) conducting a scoping study and providing intervention options for the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), and 2) developing a detailed project document for the first four years of the project. The initiative aims to promote sustainable, SME-driven tourism while aligning with Nepal’s federal structure and provincial economic growth strategies.
