F.a: Advancing the Rights of Forced Migrants in Nepal

In the changed political context of Nepal, there has been significant scope for the drafting, amending number of laws and policies of various issues of human rights concern. The only issue that lacks the normative framework is of issues relating to forced migrants who categorically are refugees and asylum seekers. The project is dedicated for the population who are in vulnerable conditions resulting from the absence of such laws and policies. The project aims at meeting the expected outcomes of legal prot ection through four mutually reinforcing approaches: i) empowering the refugee community by creating a pool of paralegals through a Paralegal Short Course ii) Instantaneous address of legal challenges faced by beneficiaries through a law clinic and mobil e legal clinics iii) Public advocacy through outreach, dialogues/discussions, information campaigns, and workshops and iv) Closed-door meetings with host community organizations including law enforcement and administrative officials, members of judiciary a nd civil society, Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and other relevant stakeholders not limiting up the official channels. These four-fold approaches will help the forced migrants to access justice, sustainably protect rights of their fellow communitie s through paralegal short courses and well network with public officials to foster protection sphere. www.inhuredinternational.org
