    The document provides an overview of the socioeconomic profile of the Trishuli River Basin area in Nepal, which spans 14 municipalities across the upstream, midstream, and downstream sections. It notes that over 313,862 people rely on the river basin for their livelihoods. The upstream areas have lower population densities and higher percentages of indigenous peoples compared to the midstream and downstream areas. Tables 7.1 and 7.2 profile demographic and economic indicators across the municipalities, highlighting similarities and differences between the upstream, midstream, and downstream sections in terms of population, density, gender ratios, and income-related factors.
