I teach IGCSE Geography at an international school in Southeast Asia. Case studies are where students lose the most marks, because they turn up with general points and no data. Nepal gives them exactly the depth they need.
This resource is a complete, ready-to-teach case study on Nepal for Cambridge IGCSE Geography (0460, 2027 syllabus).
You get a 58-slide PowerPoint presentation, a Word document student workbook in three versions (full colour, grayscale, online-ready), a bonus interactive website on Geography Oasis, and a full answer key.
Students will learn:
- Nepal’s development profile: GNI $1,404, HDI 0.622, life expectancy 70, literacy 77.4%.
- The physical, political, and economic reasons behind Nepal’s level of development.
- The impact of the 2015 earthquake on Nepal’s development trajectory.
- Six named strategies in use, from tourism and hydropower to community forestry.
- How to classify each strategy as top-down, bottom-up, or both.
- How to structure a 7-mark Detailed Specific Example response.
Also suitable for AP Human Geography, World Geography, and any development or global issues unit at ages 14-16.
Delivered as fully editable PowerPoint (.pptx) and Word (.docx) files. Adapt the language, restructure activities, or drop in your own resources.
This is Module 5 of the Development unit. A bundle is available if you want the full unit and a saving across all five modules.
