NP Children Against Sexual Exploitation - (ChASE)

Sexual abuse online and in travel & tourism are emerging issues in Nepal, with a growing market for sex tourism. Lack of awareness amongst the concerned authorities and community, and a lack of adequate law and policy suppresses the issue from surfacing. The programme will address the issue by involving survivors’ participation, creating awareness among the families and communities, education on the issues, advocate and lobby for changes in policy and formulation of laws where needed to concern authorities and stakeholders. Efforts will be made to create a nationwide sensitisation to combat child sexual exploitation. The programme focus on deploying secret agents dedicated to do under-cover investigations to increase prosecution of perpetrators, especially the traveling sex offenders.
