Nepal

The oppression of religious minorities is becoming ever more widespread in Nepal. Since the anti-conversion law came into force in 2017, their situation has become increasingly difficult. Discrimination and attacks in everyday life are on the increase.

CSI priorities:

Educating members of religious minorities regarding basic rights and laws affecting their everyday life
Legal support for victims of religious persecution
Practical help for victims of persecution: shelter, medicines, first aid
Establishing a network of parliamentarians to advocate for human rights
Emergency assistance and help to set up small businesses for financial empowerment
