Unveiling Justice: Rape Survivors speak out
This report on access to justice for rape survivors examines the context of conflict in Nepal and how it has perpetuated different forms of violence. It further analyses the legal framework and response mechanisms, the barriers that women face in accessing justice. It concludes by providing proposals for reform that will enable women enjoy their rights and access justice. The report also calls for enhanced institutional support to ensure that not only victims get justice but it is extended to Women Human Rights Defenders, who have also continued to suffer due to the roles they undertake to fight for women's rights. It calls for a harmonized approach on all the fronts to ensure that justice mechanisms are women friendly.
