Abstract
Abstract Although Nepal has made remarkable progress in the drinking water only sector from past few decades, the status of drinking water, in terms of climate change, is poorly documented and thus less known. This review aims to sum up drinking water status in climate change perspectives by reviewing available secondary data from published and gray literature. Climate change, and its impact on the drinking water sector, is undeniable. Though many policies and laws are enforced to address climate change issues, very few policies and laws have incorporated climate change-resilient WASH as a priority. It is of current need to carry out action-based research followed by eco-region wise interventions for adaptation and mitigation of impacts on WASH sector due to climate change.
