CWISH from the day of its establishment has been rigorously working for ensuring the rights of children and this year too we could bring change in the lives of vulnerable children. This was possible by adopting various strategies and working directly with children, school, and communities to advocating on promoting children's rights in community, district and National level.
CWISH conceptualized campaigns like Green Flag Movement against child labor and Youth in Black Cap against Child Sexual Abuse which has been success to create a momentum in reducing violence against children.
Nepal is in the process of drafting new constitution. In this context, CWISH engaged with members of constitutional assembly, parliament and the civil society to ensure children's right in the constitution. Further, CWISH instigated to review 25 years of Convention on the rights of Child (CRC) in Nepal which is in the process to document achievements, learning, challenges and providing recommendations.

As elected representatives of your gram panchayat you represent all the persons who live in your village. You also represent the children, even though they did not vote you in. As the elected representatives you are responsible for ensuring that the rights of children are protected.
Lest we forget, the children may not be voters today, but
will be tomorrow, when they become adults. They will then hold us, adults of today, accountable for how they been brought up.
As you are well aware, children in every society face abuse, violence and exploitation. If you look around you, you will see it. Little children engaged in work and deprived of schooling- many of them bonded-parents beating their children, teachers beating children in schools or discriminating against them because of their caste or religion, girl children not being allowed to be born or killed soon after birth, or facing discrimination in the family and society because they are girls.
As an elected representative of your community and
people what will you do when you see a child being abused and exploited?

The Child Protection Policy and Procedures aimed to enhance CWISH quality of work with children through building and enabling environment for children to participate with the help of policy and procedure to safeguard children in contact with CWISH from any forms of harms and potential risk.
NCPA has been working since its establishment to protect and promote the right to protection of the children. It has organized two national conferences. The first conference exposed the major child protection agenda form the local and thematically unconcerned areas. For example right to protection of the children belonging to Muslim community and LGBTI had not yet come into mainstream debate.
However the conference mainstreamed those issues into national debate. The second conference brought all the thematic discussions into a prioritized area of child protection problems and tried to seek the solution through policy analysis and implementation gap in the presence of wider range of stakeholders including sectoral government agencies representation.

Youth In Black Cap : A movement against Child Sexual abuse in NepalRamesh Bhandari
Although child sexual abuse is prevalent in our society, many of the parents and children are unaware that it is happening against them. We do not have specific mechanism to aware and enable children, parents, teachers or the community members about protecting children against these abuses. Moreover, children are seldom encouraged to speak about sex. This has resulted into hiding of the cases although they have been victimized of it.
YOUTH IN BLACK CAP is a movement against increasing incidences of child sexual abuse It is a peaceful movement to inform and aware communities about the increasing incidences of child sexual abuse and pressurize policy level higher officials/authorities, parliamentarians and law makers for the formulation and implementation of create child protective and friendly laws policies and programs. This is a youth led social movement where the youngsters put on black cap, hold a candle, different handbills and posters related to child sex abuse and stand in the main junctions of the city without hindering the traffic. This movement will be organized every Friday morning from 9-10. Before the organization of the movement, youths will be oriented about the concept of the movement and motivate them to be the part of the campaign. To make the movement throughout the country, local NGOs operating in the district level and youth will be mobilized. CWISH and Dynamic Youth Forum who envisioned the movement will coordinate with different organizations and make a coordination committee to launch the movement from central level. The secretariat of the committee will be in CWISH office, Buddhanagar. The organizations involved in the movement will have active participation. Interested individuals without institutional affiliation can also make voluntary contribution and take part actively in the movement. Coordination committee will provide technical support in need. The movement will be launched in 19 November which is also celebrated as world’s day against child abuse. On this occasion letter of demand will also be submitted to the prime minister.

The Lubombo Child Friendly Court:A Pilot of Social Work Systems Strengthenin...HFG Project
Nearly one in three Swazi girls experiences sexual violence before the age of 18 and one in four suffer physical violence, according to a 2007 UNICEF national study on violence against children in Swaziland.
To help these young victims, the Government of the Kingdom of Swaziland has taken strong steps to support them by providing not only counseling and health services, but also special child-friendly courts (CFCs) to make it easier for them to testify against their attackers. Through the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the HFG project assisted with developing the country’s third CFC in Siteki, Lubombo, and training social workers to assist young victims.
Ms. Zee Catherine Masuku, MSW, HFG’s Regional Social Welfare Advisor in Swaziland, presented key findings and major lessons learned from this effort at The Network for Social Work Management’s 26th Annual Management Conference in Washington, DC, on June 4, 2015.

Improving the health and well-being of women, children and adolescents
and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 will require more
effective collaboration and joined-up action across sectors, especially at
national and local levels. Some countries are already making great strides in
working together across sectors. The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn &
Child Health (PMNCH) brings together partners to support the development
of 12 country case studies to showcase such successful multistakeholder
collaborations across sectors in six priority areas: early childhood
development; adolescent health and well-being; quality, equity and dignity;
sexual and reproductive health and rights; empowerment of women, girls
and communities; and humanitarian and fragile settings. The case studies
will provide inspiration, insight and ideas, shedding light on what works
and why, and on how to address challenges.
The 12 country case studies, summarized in this document, were selected
from more than 300 responses to PMNCH’s global call for proposals.
They will be launched at the Partners’ Forum on 12-13 December 2018
in New Delhi, where they will be widely profiled and promoted to inform
advocacy and country-level action on collaboration across sectors in the era
of the Sustainable Development Goals. The case studies will be published in
a special issue of The BMJ and disseminated through traditional and digital
media channels.

Better data ensures the poorest households are
not left behind
To help target services and assistance to the poorest and most
vulnerable households of Cambodia (an estimated 2.5 million
people), the Government developed a standardized
mechanism to identify households in need. “Identification
of Poor Households” (ID Poor), launched in 2005, is a
collaborative effort between, health, education, agriculture,
interior and social protection sector as well as NGOs and
development partners under the leadership of the Ministry
of Planning. ID Poor’s data are used by a wide range of
development programmes in Cambodia, many of which are
focused on improving maternal and child health and
development outcomes. Improvements in data are facilitating
the effective and efficient reach of services across sectors and
increasing equity for vulnerable women and children. Case

बालबालिकाको उपयुक्त हेरचाह तथा बालमैत्री घर परिवार निर्माणका लागि अभिभावक शिक्षा स्रोत पुस्तक
अभिभावकत्व जीवनको सबैभन्दा चुनौतीपूर्ण यात्रा हो, असल सन्तानका लागि चाहना गर्ने र त्यस अनुसार योजना बनाउने अभिभावकको लागि यो चुनौती अनिवार्य पनि छ । त्यसैले अभिभावक बन्ने व्यवस्थापकीय ज्ञान र सिप बहुआयामिक हुनु स्वभाविकै हो । ती सबै सवालहरू विस्तृत रूपमा यस यस स्रोत पुस्तकभित्र समेट्न सम्भव नभएता पनि प्रमुख सवालहरूसँग सम्बन्धित विषयहरूले अभिभावक तथा अभिभावकसँग प्रत्यक्ष काम गर्ने सरोकारवालाहरूका लागि पनि केही हदसम्म सान्दर्भिक हुने छ भन्ने अपेक्षा गरिएको छ ।
वैवाहिक जीवनको सुरुवातको सोच आउँदा नै अभिभावकत्वको सुरुवात हुन्छ । जब व्यवहार मै अभिभावक बनिन्छ, त्यसको निरन्तरता जीवन पर्यन्त रहन्छ । जस्तैः विवाह कुन उमेरमा गर्ने ? बच्चा कहिले जन्माउने ? बच्चा जन्माउन नचाहेको अवधिका लागि कुन गर्भनिरोधका साधन अपनाउने ? कसरी बढाउने र पढाउने, आत्मा निर्भर बन्न र विवाह गर्न योग्य कसरी बनाउने आदि देखि असल अभिभावकको लागि परिवारमा अप्रत्यक्ष रूपले अनन्तसम्म अभिभावकत्व रहिरहन्छ ।

गर्भधारण गर्ने निर्णयदेखि प्रसूति सेवा तथा बालविकासका लागि अभिभावकले पूरा गर्नु पर्ने दायित्वका सम्पूर्ण पक्षमा अभिभावकलाई दक्ष बनाउन यो स्रोत पुस्तकले प्रयास गरेको छ । यसमा भएका सामग्रीहरूको अध्ययनलाई सहज होस् भन्नका लागि त्यसका सैद्धान्तिक तथा प्राव
This report represents the final evaluation of a four year project titled Reintegrating Nepalese child domestic workers with their families which focused on reintegrating Nepalese child domestic workers living with employers, strengthening families to prevent child separation through income generating support, and invigorating local child protection mechanisms to promote child protection in areas of operation. The project, which began in 2011, has been principally funded by Comic Relief through a grant of £642,302 to UK-based NGO EveryChild, and has been implemented by Nepalese NGO CWISH (Children and Women in Social Services and Human Rights) and three district partners: FOWEP (Kavre); MANK (Sindhupalchowk); SYS (Ramechhap). The evaluation was undertaken by a team of two independent consultants, supported by CWISH and EveryChild staff.

यस निर्देशिका भित्र नेपाल सरकारद्वारा तयार भएको गुणस्तरीय शिक्षाका लागि बालमैत्री विद्यालय राष्ट्रिय प्रारूपमा उल्लेखित सूचकहरूलाई विषयवस्तुको रूपमा प्रस्तुत गरिएको छ । यस निर्देशिकामा ती विषयवस्तुहरूलाई क्रियाकलापमुखी बनाएको छ । क्रियाकलापमुखी भएका कारण यसले विषयवस्तुहरूको ज्ञान, धारणा र सीप विकास गर्न सहभागीहरूलाई सक्रिय बनाउने छ । यसमा उल्लेखित विषयवस्तुहरू र त्यसका क्रियाकलापहरूलाई स्पष्ट बुझाइ र सीप विकास गर्न लक्षित समूहका सहजकर्ताहरूलाई अभ्यस्त गर्ने अवसर र वातावरण आवश्यक हुन्छ । प्रशस्त अभ्यास र वातावरणले मात्र अपेक्षित सन्देश तथा व्यवहारहरू लक्षित समूहमा प्रतिविम्बित हुन सक्छन् ।
बालबालिकाको उपयुक्त हेरचाहका लागि पारिवारिक शिक्षा
सिविसले बालबालिकाको उपयुक्त हेरचाह तथा बालमैत्री घर परिवार निर्माणका लागि अभिभावक शिक्षा स्रोत पुस्तक प्रकाशन गरेको छ । स्रोत पुस्तकमा बालबालिकाको उज्ज्वल भविष्यका लागि आमाबाबु परिवार विद्यालय, समुदाय तथा बालबालिकासँग सरोकार राख्ने अन्य निकायहरूको भूमिका उल्लेख गरिएको छ । उक्त स्रोतपुस्तकलाई आधार मानी ग्रामीण भेगमा आफ्ना छोराछोरी राष्ट्रका असल नागरिक बनून् भन्ने चाहना गर्ने तर लेखपढ गर्न नजान्ने वा सामान्य लेखपढ मात्र गर्न जान्ने अभिभावकलाई आफ्ना छोराछोरीले आफूले चाहे अनुसार प्रगती गरेको हेर्नका लागि उनीहरूको भूमिकाको बारेमा जानकारी गराउन यो सचित्र स्रोत पुस्तिका तयार गरिएको हो ।
हरेक आमाबाबुलाई आफ्ना बालबालिकाको उज्ज्वल भविष्यको चाहना हुनु स्वभाविकै हो तर बालबालिकाको उज्ज्वल भविष्य आमाबाबुले चाहेर मात्र सम्भव छैन । बालबालिकालाई उचित ढङ्गबाट हुर्काउन बढाउनका लागि पारिवारिक वातावरणले पनि महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका खेल्ने गर्दछ । यसका लागि नव विवाहित दम्पतीले विवाह पश्चात् बालबालिकाको जन्मका लागि योजना गर्नु पर्दछ । बालबालिकाको वृद्धि र विकासलाई शिशु गर्भमा रहेदेखि नै गर्भवती आमाको स्याहार तथा शिशु जन्मे पश्चात गरिने स्याहारले पनि असर गर्दछ । त्यस�
विद्यालयमा बालअधिकार र हाम्रो भूमिका
यो पुस्तिका विद्यालयमा अध्ययनरत बालबालिकाका लागि लक्षित गरी तयार परिएको पुस्तिका हो । गुणस्तरीय शिक्षाका लागि बालमैत्री विद्यालय राष्ट्रिय प्रारुपमा उल्लेखित सूचक प्राप्त गर्न विद्यालय प्रशासन, विद्यालय व्यवस्थापन समिति, शिक्षक एवम् विभिन्न सरोकारवालाहरुको उत्तरदायित्व रहन्छ । त्यस दस्तावेजमा स्पष्ट रुपमा विद्यालय, शिक्षकहरुले निर्वाह गर्नुपर्ने भूमिका उल्लेख गरिएको छ । तर, विद्यालयलाई बालमैत्री बनाउने पक्षमा विद्यालय र शिक्षकहरु सँगसँगै बालबालिकाको पनि महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका रहन्छ । यस पुस्तिकामा विद्यालयलाई बालमैत्री बनाउन बालबालिकाले निर्वाह गर्नुपर्ने
भूमिकाका बारेमा उल्लेख गरिएको छ ।
विद्यालयमा बालमैत्री वातावरण भएमा बालबालिकाहरुले चाँडो सिक्न सक्ने, लेख्दा पढ्दा मानसिक तनाव कम हुने, विद्यालयमा मायालु वातावरण प्राप्त गर्ने जस्ता राम्रा कुरा हुने हुनाले विद्यालयलाई बालमैत्री बनाउनु आवश्यक हुन्छ । त्यसै गरी, बालबालिकाकै महत्वपूर्ण भूमिकामा विद्यालयलाई बालबालिकाले चाहेको जस्तो विद्यालयको रुपमा परिणत गर्न सकिन्छ ।
यस पुस्तिका तयार पार्नुअघि काठमाडौँका विभिन्न विद्यालयका बालबालिका र झापा जिल्लाका दुई ओटा विद्यालयका बालबालिकासँग प्रत्यक्ष छलफल गर्दा प्राप्त बुँदाहरुलाई यसमा समेटिएको छ । छलफलका क्रममा सहभागी बालबालिकाले विद्यालयलाई बाल सुलभ वा बालमैत्री बनाउन स्वयम् बालबालिकाले के–कस्तो भूमिका निर्वाह गर्नुपर्छ भन्ने बारेमा बताएका थिए ।
यस पुस्तिकाको उद्देश्य के हो ?
बालमैत्री विद्यालयले बालबालिकाको सिकाइ प्रक्रियालाई प्रभावकारी बनाउन मद्दत गर्दछ । यस्ता विद्यालयमा विद्यार्थीहरुले अध्ययन गर्ने क्रममा धेरै तनाव भोग
प्यारा भाइबहिनीहरू,
हाम्रो देश नेपाल प्राकृतिक विपद्को दृष्टिकोणले अति जोखिममा रहेको छ । देशको अधिकांश भूभाग बाढी, पहिरो, हिमताल विष्फोट, हिमपहिरो र भूकम्पको जोखिममा रहेको छ भने समयसमयमा हुने महामारी, आगलागी, शीतलहर जस्ता विप्दले पनि कैयौ मानिसले अकालमा नै ज्यान गुमाएका छन् । यस्ता प्राकृतिक विपद्का कारण कैयौँ बालबालिकाले पनि ज्यान गुमाइरहेका छन् भने कैयौँ बालबालिकामा विपद्का कारण मानसिक रूपमा नै आघात पर्न गई दिर्घकालीन रूपमा असर गरिरहेको हुन्छ । विपद्कै कारण कतिपय बालबालिकाले आºना अभिभावक, वासस्थान अनि विद्यालय पनि गुमाएका छन् ।
विपद्को समयमा हामीलाई सहयोगको आस देखाएर आपराधिक मानसिकता भएका मानिसहरूले दुव्र्यवहार र शोषण गर्न सक्छन् । हामी जस्तै कैयौँ बालबालिका विपद्कै कारण आघातमा परी मनोसामाजिक समस्यामा पनि पर्न सक्छन् । प्राकृतिक विपद् रोक्न नसकिने भएकाले यसबाट हुने असर कम गर्न हामीले सुरक्षित रहने उपायबारे सधैँ सतर्क रहनुपर्दछ ।
नेपालमा आउन सक्ने मुख्य प्राकृतिक विपद्, यसबाट बालबालिकालाई पर्ने असर र सुरक्षित रहने उपायहरू बारे जानकारी लिने र यस बारेमा हामी जस्तै अन्य बालबालिकालाई पनि जानकारी गराई विपद्को समयमा सुरक्षित रहन सहयोग पुगोस् भन्ने उद्देश्यले सिविसले यो चित्र कथा तयार गरी प्रकाशन गरेको छ ।
सिविस र यसका साझेदार संस्थाहरुले काठमाडौँ उपत्यकामा घरेलु श्रमिकको रुपमा काम गर्न बसेका बालबालिकाहरुलाई आफ्नै परिवारसँगै बसाउनका लागि असोज २०६८ (सन् २०११) मा पुनर्एकीकरण गर्न सुरू ग¥यौं । हामीलाई सम्पर्क गर्ने बालबालिका र अभिभावकहरुले यस्तो पुनर्मिलनका लागि सहयोग माग्नुभएपछि हामीले सहयोग ग¥यौं । यसका लागि हामीले बालबालिकालाई फेरि स्कूल जान सहयोग गर्यौँ भने उनीहरुका परिवारलाई आय आर्जनका लागि विभिन्न सिपमूलक तालिम तथा सहकारी मार्फत बिउ पूँजि पनि सहयोग गर्यौँ । आगामी दिनमा समुदायका महत्वपूर्ण व्यक्तिले यस्ता बालबालिका र तिनका परिवारलाई संरक्षण गर्न सहयोग गर्ने कुरा पनि हामीले सुनिश्चित गर्न चाह्यौँ ।

बालक्लब के हो ?
प्यारा भाइबहिनीहरु, बालक्लब बालबालिकाहरुको शारीरिक, मानसिक र बौद्धिक विकास गर्ने स्थल हो । बालक्लबमा बालबालिकाहरुले मिलेर ठूला–ठूला काम गर्न सक्छन् । बालक्लब जहाँ बालबालिकाहरु विभिन्न किसिमका रचनात्मक क्रियाकलाप गर्न र जीवनोपयोगी सीपहरु सिक्न सक्छन् । बालक्लब बालबालिकाले संगठित हुन पाउने ठाउँ हो । यसले बालबालिकाका आवाजलाई सामूहिक रुपमा व्यक्त गर्न पाउँछन् । क्लबको माध्यमबाट उनीहरुले आफू र आफ्ना साथीहरुले भोग्दै आएका समस्याहरु, वयस्कहरुले ध्यान पु¥याउँन नसकेका बाल संरक्षणका सवालहरुलाई बाहिर ल्याउन सक्छन् । विद्यालय वा गाउँमा बालबालिकामाथि हुने गरेको शोषण, यातना आदिका बारेमा वयस्कहरुको ध्यानाकर्षण गर्न र समाधानका लागि घच्घच्याउन सक्छन् । बालक्लब लोकतान्त्रिक परिपाटी अभ्यास गर्ने बालमैत्री स्थान पनि हो ।
Domestic Workers are less counted labor sector in global and Nepali society. In spite of their presence with more than 150 thousand all over the country, their work is not counted in the national economy, neither they are provided state protection by law and nor their situation have been interrogated seriously. However there are some studies with concentration on child domestic workers, the overall study of domestic workers has not been counted and this study is the first such
kind of study in Nepal.

4. CWISH | Annual Report 2014
Children and Women in Social Service
and Human Rights (CWISH) is a national
human rights organization founded in
1993 aiming to ensure social justice,
protection and promotion of human rights in
all spheres of Nepalese life with particular
focus on rights of women and children.
CWISH from the day of its establishment
has been rigorously working for ensuring
the rights of children and this year too we
could bring change in the lives of vulnerable
children. This was possible by adopting
various strategies and working directly
with children, school, and communities to
advocating on promoting children's rights
in community, district and National level.
CWISH conceptualized campaigns like
Green Flag Movement against child labor
and Youth in Black Cap against Child
Sexual Abuse which has been success to
create a momentum in reducing violence
against children.
Nepal is in the process of drafting new
constitution. In this context, CWISH
FOREWORD
engaged with members of constitutional
assembly, parliament and the civil
society to ensure children's right in the
constitution. Further, CWISH instigated
to review 25 years of Convention on the
rights of Child (CRC) in Nepal which is
in the process to document achievements,
learning, challenges and providing
recommendations.
I would like to take this opportunity
to thank all our donors, partners,
school teachers, students, SMCs, PTAs,
local child protection structures, local
organizations and communities and all
our stakeholders for making it possible to
achieve our objectives.

The intervention of CWISH was directly
implemented in 7 districts, 82 villages and 12
municipals, 299 schools. In 2014 CWISH directly
worked with 487 families, 3120 children, 1028
child laborers, 1495 school teachers and with state
officials at national level. CWISH contributed for
improving state response on child labor through
drafting litigation procedures on monitoring,
inspection, and prosecution together with
Department of Labor. CWISH also, collaborated
with National Law Commission for revisiting
provisions of sexual assault in the process of
amendment of existing criminal code on child
rights perspectives, drew attention of parliament
on legal provisions to ban corporal punishment
and advocated for child rights perspective legal
provison for child sexual abuse.
In the year of 2014, CWISH faced some
challenges in broader political scenario of
the country, organizational arrangements and
interventions. Overcoming the challenges with
wider social mobilization, building and working
with civil society and alliances and having critical
and collaborative engagement with government.
CWISH has been successful to achieve it’s target
results of progress and equity in the community.
Participation of community, children and the
families are appreciable in the process.
CWISH believes in the theory of change
and adopts the dynamism of organization.
Learning from the experiences of 2014 and
past, recognizing the need of new adjustment
on it’s programming and inclusion of new areas
of interventions CWISH further developed it’s
programmatic approaches and methods. In
2015 with improved collaborative approaches of
interventions at district level, better national policy
advocacy and interventions strategies, direct
services for community, children and families at
local level, critical and collaborative engagement
with state authorities, CWISH focused in three
major area: Child Protection, Right to Education,
Family Empowerment along with consideration
cross cutting issues of gender and governance,
sexual and reproductive health and informal
sector women workers.

for regular schools they are encouraged to join formal
schools too. Also, Support Learning Session (SLS) is
a supplementary teaching learning session in public
schools specially focused to support school going DCL
to excel in their academic performance. The school
going DCL and those in ORCs are also fostered with
exit package which continues to be a key strategy of
CWISH that encourages children to reintegrate back to
their families. The exit package is reviewed and revised
annually, incorporating feedback from facilitators to
make it a more effective tool for reintegration. This year
the exit package was revised to include a greater focus
on helping children to identify their strengths and the
positive aspects of family and community life. Children
are also supported to identify the factors that led them
to become DCL and compare their expectations of
what domestic work would be like with the reality of
their current situation.
While working, challenges of reintegrating children in
broken families and those who do not have their parent
have been a persistent issue. Moreover, 14 years above
are difficult to reintegrate as they lack interest in going
back to rural life as they are attracted to urban life.
Key Achievements
965 Domestic Child Laborers are
identified, 32% are reintegrated back
to their families.
271 children are benefitted through
8 Out Reach Centers (ORCs) that
referred 117 Domestic Child Laborers
(DCLs) to CWISH for reintegration.

Pabitra (pseudo name), aged 15 years from Kavre Palanchowk
district (neighboring district of capital) is an abandoned
girl child whose father married another woman and mother
eloped with other man. She had finally landed on her mother’s
acquaintance’s home at Dhapasi, Kathmandu to work as child
domestic worker at the age of 7 yrs. But after serving for two
years as domestic worker she was sent to her grand aunt’s
house in Imadol, Lalitpur district as she needed medical
concerns due to her debilitating mental and physical condition.
At first Pabitra’s life seemed to take a turn for the better in
Imadol but it got worse as she was sexually abused and raped
multiple times by the husband of her grandaunt.Eventually, she
started showing signs of mental disturbance, which was first
noticed by her female teacher in school. The teacher reported
Pabitra’s case to CWISH and VOC (Voice Of Children), a
national organization working on child protection. Pabitra was
rescued with the help of Jawalakhel police and placed in safe
house.
After Pabitra’s rescue, immediately an FIR was to be filed
against the rape but the police rejected to lodge the FIR as
the case exceeded 35 days of ultimatum. Later, during her
frequent counselling sessions in safe house, she revealed
that there had been an attempt to rape by the perpetrator in
Imadol. Based on her sharing, an FIR was filed by CWISH,
CWIN and VOC on behalf of the child, this time on attempt to
rape against Pabitra’s grand-aunt’s husband. CWISH provided
psychosocial counselling and legal support for Pabitra during
her trial and the court decided the justice on her favor. The
perpetrator is charged with 4 years of imprisonment and
compensation of NRs 100,000.
During her counseling sessions, she also revealed incidents
of sexual abuse multiple times by her former employer in
Dhapasi for two years. She even shared that the employer
used to call other people and abuse her. Sadly, the incidents
had exceeded the 35 days of ultimatum that consequently
deprived Pabitra from justice. Presently, she is in safe hands
with improvement in her psychosocial and physical problems.
Now she has continued her school living in hostel supported
by Asha Nepal.

CWISH conceptualized ‘Green Flag Movement’
with an aim to morally and socially pressurize
people/organizations that employee children in
labor and encourage society to be a child labor-
free zone.This campaign was initially implemented
in Lalitpur Sub Metropolitan City and declared
Ward 14 and 21 as 'Child labour free zone'.
Additionally Ward No. 11 of Hetauda Municipality
was declared as child labour free zone under this
campaign in leadership of Hetauda Municipality
and Child Welfare Society. The movement has
consequently influenced other municipalities too.
The movement was supported by ILO, UNICEF
and other civil society organization.
This campaign was initiated to further engage
local government to eliminate child labour.
However, CWISH decided that rewarding people
with a green flag who hasn’t employed children is
more effective.
Government officials were trained on the concept,
supported to reintegrate CDWs in their ward and
monitoring guidelines was developed to ensure
wards remain child labor free. This is a non
confrontational and positive approach where the
household, enterprise or industry that is child
labor free is marked with green flag indicating that
there is no child labor.
Ward number 14 and 21 of Lalitpur
Sub-metropolitan city and ward number 11 of
Hetauda Municipality is declared child labor
free zone.
Green flag movement against child labor
13. 8 CWISH | Annual Report 2014
30 cases of sexual assault among
children were registered in court
and 8 cases won in favor of victim.
Community Orientation on child sexual abuse Complaint/suggestions box is installed in over 200
schools.
750 cases like sexual abuse, corporal
punishment and bullying have been
complained by the students.
Child sexual abuse
CWISH has been strong campaigner working
against child sexual abuse. This year 63 cases
were referred to CWISH among which 30 cases
was registered in the judiciary court for further
proceedings. 19 were rape cases, 4 attempt to
rape, 2 gang rape, trafficking, and sexual abuse.
Among them, one of the cases was rape against
a male child. The organization has also been
supporting the cases with emergency facilities
like clinical, psychosocial, legal, vocational
trainings etc. Additionally, CWISH supported 45
(Male-21, Female-24) abused children in this year
with education, counseling, Medical examination,
Medicine, legal aid and proceedings etc.
In working for the protection of children in these
cases has been challenging in the process of
reintegration.The children who do not have parent
or have broken homes are more vulnerable even
if they are identified and reintegrated. Children are
being abused by their step father and again fall
prey to domestic labor where they are reintegrated.
Beside these, group counsellings were conducted
among 74 participants (M-42, F-32) and 66 were
counselled individualy.The counsellings sessions
were provided on child sexual abuse, domestic
child labor, bullying and for those children who
had decreasing interest in studying. The teachers
and parents have responded that the service has
helped to improve the status of children.
Mobilization of community based
child protection structures
CWISH worked together with the community
schools and communities stakeholders to
strengthen existing Child Protection Committees
in communities and schools in order to discourage
all forms of violence against children (VAC) and
aware about child friendly home, child protection
issues and disaster preparedness. 200 schools
have developed code of conduct for teachers,
students, School Management Committee (SMC)
for promoting child protection mechanisms which
recognize the rights of the child.CWISH along with
the SMC, parents-teacher associations (PTA),
parents, child clubs (CC), and students conducted
several orientation programs regarding violence
against children and child protection issues.
CWISH facilitated to establish complaint handling
mechanism and installed complaint/suggestions
box in over 200 schools. Consequently, the output
of complaint handling mechanism has been
reflected with regular meeting in the schools
among the complaint handling committee.
To produce an integrated and synergy effect in
combating violence against children, orientation
programs were also held among CC, SMC, PTA,
Head Teachers (HT), VDC, municipality and
Health Post Management Committee (HPMC)
and Health Post (HP) highlighting their role on
child protection. 175 regular interaction meetings
14. 9CWISH | Annual Report 2014
in every four months, 98 local level awareness
programs and 964 child led awareness raising
programs were organized in Kathmandu Valley
to establish violence free schools that sensitized
village child protection committee (VCPC),
children, teachers, parents and local authorities
about child rights, violence against children, and
child protection.
CWISH also worked on mainstreaming the issues
of child protection issues such as separation of
children, child labor, child friendly schools, child
friendly homes, emergency support to children
encouraging children, PTA / SMC and other
community groups to be involved in government
structures to ensure the budget allocation directly
benefiting the children.
Similarly to establish legal and policy framework
to combat Violence Against Children (VAC)
3 national level awareness raising campaign was
Parenting education program
Group work during training to VCPC membersDevelopment of CoC
conducted and 2 PSAs were aired throughout the
year from 106 radio stations in 75 districts. Apart
from this, Radio program “Aja Ka kura” was aired
from Radio Sagarmatha and 'Kopila' from Nepal
FM.All this programs supported in bringing greater
awareness as well as sensitized government and
people for combating VAC.
Adding, a three days training on Child protection
was organized in Dhulikhel among the District
Police Office (DPO) and DCWB , the training
was positively accepted by the law implementing
agencies. After the training 4 child sex abuse
cases have been referred from the police office.
Moreover local people and political leaders on CP
were also trained in CP. District Program Advisory
Committee was also held among the different
stake holders to share the project progress and
challenges.
15. 10 CWISH | Annual Report 2014
A total of 3,272 child clubs
members are capacitated on
child rights and detecting,
preventing and reporting child
rights violations.
CWISH has always encouraged child participation
at its most interventions. The inclusion of children
and their mobilization by supporting them in
different extracurricular activities have resulted
outstanding in promoting their rights. This year

Child Participation
In 2014, CWISH engaged with
government agencies to rescue
20 children from child care
home and reintegrated with their
families.
MoU was signed with CCWB for
strengthening child care home
monitoring this year.
Children without parental care
The post conflict years and mushrooming of
institutional care homes contextualized and
highlighted the issues of separated children
and children without parental care. CWISH
focused Dhading district and its 5 VDCs, having
the most prevalence of separated children.
CWISH coordinated for capacity building of local
mechanism including child protection committees,
child clubs, SMC / PTA and Village Education
Committee (VEC). These structures also function
as monitoring units for any separation of children
that would report to the concerned authority for
action.
In spite all these efforts, still the issues of children
without parental care seems to one of the most
challenging issues. In the study done by CWISH
in coordination with DCWB of Kathmandu,
Lalitpur and Bhaktapur districts during 2013, The
minimum standard guidelines set for care homes
have been followed by very few child care homes
(CCHs) so, majority of the CCHs fall under its
noncompliance. Critically, the policy in relation
to children 2012 clearly states that the CCHs will
be used as last resort of alternative care but the
findings of the study revealed that CCHs have
been perceived as places where children can
grow with most of the basic facilities.

CWISH envisages with strong commitment
that providing education to the children can
alleviate their lives which are possible through
free and compulsory quality education.
In order to secure access to education of
the vulnerable and marginalized children,
CWISH provided education materials to 1214
students in Kathmandu Valley, Dhading, Kavre,
Sindhupalchowk and Ramechhap district. The
selection of the students was done by SMC
and PTA of the respective schools ensuring
the benefits goes to the marginalized and
vulnerable children. The scholarship support
included stationery items, school uniform
and bag and was distributed in presence of
SMC/PTA members, community people and
representatives of District Education Office
(DEO).
School Improvement Plan (SIP)
Government of Nepal has mandated SIP in
every public school but all the schools that were
approached did not have the SIP. The reason
behind it was schools didn’t have adequate
knowledge to develop it. CWISH facilitated to
formulate School Improvement Plan in 103
schools in Kathmandu and Kavre districts. Out
of them, 93 schools now have SIP, 66 SIP have
clear agendas on child protection and 38 SIPs
were developed with children's participation.
Psychosocial Counseling in
Schools

psychosocial counseling and provided
psychosocial counseling setup to 6 schools in
Kathmandu valley.
Violence Free Schools
CWISH worked in 200 schools to maintain
violence free schools in Kathmandu Valley.
CWISH facilitated to have code of conduct,
complaint box, compliant handling committee
in 200 schools. Similarly, CWISH facilitated
to conduct regular interaction meeting in the
schools of head teachers, school management
committee on maintaining violence free schools.
strengthening ECD centers

schools of Ramechhap district. The centers
were supported with a view that children with
ECD experience are very likely to enjoy school
environment and continue their education and
also perform better in upper grades.The centers
were also strengthened with 10 days ECD
facilitation training to 12 facilitators.
1214 vulnerable and marginalized students
(M-598, F-616) have been supported to

18. 13CWISH | Annual Report 2014
According to the Status Report of Child Domestic
Workers (CDWs) 2012, 60% of CDWs started
working either to supplement their families
income or because their parents couldn’t afford to
keep them at home. Guided by this fact, CWISH
implements holistic and integrated approach of
strengthening and improving livelihoods of the
marginalized and vulnerable families. CWISH has
been transforming their lives to better living through
business education, skill development, business
management support linking to local savings and
credit cooperatives so that families can obtain
start up funds to implement their livelihood plan. In
order to maintain the sustainability of the improved
livelihoods CWISH works in coordination with the
local micro finance institutions.
As the support of the saving and credit
cooperatives has been vital; they have provided
loans at lower than market rates and have been
following up and providing additional support to
families. Repayment rates on loans remain very
high, at 90% with both CWISH and cooperatives
providing additional support to families who miss
any repayments. This year CWISH supported
in building capacity of the savings and credit
cooperatives, through account management
training to ensure accurate and transparent
financial transactions and record keeping, so
they can continue to support the families after the
project comes to an end.
Additionally, to positively reinforce the livelihood
supported families CWISH organized an
exposure visit to farms of Tanahun, Palpa,
Pokhara encouraging agribusiness. 26 families
from Kavre, Sindhupalchowk and Ramechhap
got the opportunity to learn more about different
approaches of farming.
After the exposure visit one farmer noted that “It
is encouraging to see people starting from just
few goats and have expanded to huge business.
I have 8 goats now. I will expand till 50 goats in
3 months provided I get technical support from
CWISH.” It was also helpful for families to hear
of other experiences and to be reassured that
establishing businesses takes time and therefore
not to expect immediate results. For example, one
farmer told how he had bought his first cow 16
years ago and now owned 80 – his message was
that you don’t need a huge investment to start
with and not to be discouraged if you have to start
small.
Livelihood Improvement
462 received business education training, 487
received vocational training and match fund
support
25 school dropout youths received vocational
training, beautician, cutting and sewing,
driving course, plumbing, mobile repairing and
automobile training.

Sushila pandit has 2 daughters and a son who
were engaged as Domestic worker to earn
and sustain their family’s living after they had
migrated from Nuwakot to Kathmandu. The
family had come to the initial contact when
CWISH reintegrated the two daughter of the
family. But still due to poor economic condition
of the family the youngest son was sent to his
maternal uncle’s house for better education
where he was again engaged as domestic child
laborer.
With the idea of sustainable reintegration
CWISH supported in livelihood and income
generation skill to the family. Sushila was able
to attend 5 days livelihood training on August
2014 provided by CWISH. After the training she
wanted to establish a snacks cart (thela) where
she could start a small business. Eventually,
CWISH helped in getting all the essentials to
start the business and now she earns NRs 2,000
– NRs 3,000 daily. She shared she can save
up to NRs 300 per day. Moreover, CWISH also
provided educational support to the children.As
for now, Sushila is happy to be surrounded by
her three school going children.
Now she says “My relatives and community are
also starting to think well of me. I am happy to
have my own small business compared to my
life as a daily wage laborer in the past. I also
suggest the others to start business of their
own according to their ability.”

REFLECT Refresher Training
REFLECT classes
The Mid Term Review (MTR) of Reintegration
Project in Ramechhap highlighted that 72%
parents of reintegrated children were illiterate
and were therefore finding it difficult to develop
and implement their business plans. It also noted
that many did not know about child rights, and
child protection. Therefore instead of running
conventional literacy classes CWISH decided
to use REFLECT, a reflective procedure of
discussion, where participants learn literacy skills
through a key word approach while at the same
time identifying social problems.As numeracy and
literacy rates are significantly lower for women in
Nepal, women have been targeted specifically
by REFLECT classes. This year 12 REFLECT
classes have been established with 283 (29
male and 254 female) parents of reintegrated
and vulnerable children attending. So far 80% of
participants have increased their basic literacy
and numeracy skills with 60% also reporting
an increased understanding of child rights and
child protection. In addition participants have
discussed issues affecting their community such
as caste discrimination, equal participation of
men and women, daily work-load between men
and women and how to reduce unnecessary daily
expenses.
“Before I joined REFLECT class, I could not
read and write. I hesitated to speak up in front
of people. But today I can write my name, can
sign the document and I am well aware about
women’s issue and issue of child labor. I have
started envisioning my future as I continue my
class in REFLECT” says confident Anita Shrestha
one of the Reflect class attendees.
