Nepal: Local ‘judicial committees’ can help enhance women’s access to justice
The local ‘judicial committees’ established by Nepal’s 2015 Constitution have shown that with sufficient resources and expertise they can improve access to justice, especially for women. This was one of the key findings of a consultation organized by the International Commission of Jurists and South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation in Law (SAARC Law Nepal) on the “Role of Justice Sector Actors on Enhancing Women’s Access to Justice in Nepal” held on 21 September 2022 in Kathmandu.
