Creating opportunities for children to participate in community development

Promoting children’s rights is an important part of our work in Nepal. One issue of grave concern is child trafficking, which involves unscrupulous people tricking families into allowing children to move to another city where they’re put to work usually either in brothels or in slave-labour conditions.

To increase awareness of this violation of human rights, we worked with local non-governmental organisations, organised community meetings and conducted orientation sessions for school children to make people aware of how trafficking begins.
