Nepal is struggling to raise $5 billion for flood recovery, as international donors pull back.
The country needs the money to rebuild after devastating floods. But global aid is shrinking, leaving a major funding gap.
Officials warn that without new support, recovery efforts could stall. Many families displaced by the floods still lack permanent housing.
Nepal is now urging international partners to honor previous pledges. It is also seeking new sources of financing.
The aid retreat reflects a broader trend. Many wealthy nations are cutting foreign assistance budgets.
For Nepal, the stakes are high. Delayed recovery could slow economic growth and deepen hardship for thousands.
