| ii | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 Preface

The Government of Nepal has been improving legal, policy, institutional and programmatic measures especially after the ratification on the United National Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), 1989. Some key issues regarding the rights of children have also been included in the Interim Constitution of Nepal, 2007. The rights and development of children have been well addressed in the national development plans especially since the Eighth Plan (1992-1997). The Government has 'National Policy on Children, 2012' as well las the 'Standard for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes - 2012'.

As recorded, there are 585 registered Child Care Homes (CCHs) are in operation in 2015. The funding sources and situation of CCHs vary generally from one CCH to another. As per the given mandate, Central Child Welfare Board (CCWB) has been monitoring as well as facilitating CCHs for decades.

In course of updating the status of CCHs in Nepal, this Report has been prepared. I believe that the Report will be useful to understand the status of CCHs as well as improve the situation of children residing in CCHs in the days to come. As Chairperson, I assure that CCWB will put extra efforts to systematize CCH monitoring and facilitate to improve the status of CCHs that are currently being operated below the standard.

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | iii | | iv | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 Acknowledgement

The Central Child Welfare Board (CCWB) and District Child Welfare Board (DCWB) have been monitoring the Child Care Homes (CCHs) in line with the standard for operation and management of residential child care homes as well as faciliting them to make aware on the provisions of legal, policy and minimum standard. The CCWB prepares a report on the Status of Children and DCWB prepares prepares the similar report for the district level.

The Central Child Welfare Board has prepared this report mainly based on the information received during renewal process of the CCHs, monitoring reports and information collected from the CCHs. This Report has come out with a total of 585 CCHs from 45 districts (out of 75) that have CCHs in operation. Of which about 76 percent CCHsare concentrated only in the Kathmandu Valley. Among the 45 districts, 17 districts have only one CCH (one per district). Of the total, 84 CCHs have less than ten children followed by 40 CCHs having only ten and 28 CCHs having only 11 children as of information received till the end of December 2014.

The report finds out that there are lots of CCHs that are yet to meet the minimum standard – facilities to the children, financial transparency, child-friendly environment and safeguarding children from exploitation and/or abuse. In course of monitoring, some CCHs were found operating in very pitiable conditions that compelledCCWB/DCWB to rescue thechildren living in those CCHs. CCWB rescued 320, reintegrated 200 and rehabilited 33 children during the period of 2008

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | v | and 2014. We hope, this report would be useful to all key stakeholders as well as readers.

At the end, our sincere thanks go to Program Manger Ms. Namuna Bhusal and Monitoring Officer Mr. Yogendra Napit for preparing the draft report, Program Assistants Mr. Lochan Regmi and Mr. Devi Dotel for providing information, and National Program Advisor Mr. Gyanendra Shrestha, Senior Program Manager Mr. Kapil Aryal and Mr. Nisith Shrivastawa for final editing of the report

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

The Government of Nepal (GoN) ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) 1989 on 14th September 1990 as well as the Optional Protocol to the CRC on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography on 20 January, 2006, and the Optional Protocol to the CRC on the Involvement of Children in Armed Conflict on 19 September, 2007. The provisions of these instruments are part of the legal system of Nepal.

The Central Child Welfare Board (CCWB) as a statutory body formed by the Children's Act 2048 BS (1992)1 is responsible to provide child related policy advice to the GoN as well as to ensure the rights of children in the nation by collaborating with civil society, national and international development partners as standard set by the CRC for the protection and promotion of the rights of children. The (CCWB) also coordinates and cooperates with the government and non-governmental organizations in the implementation of the provisions of the CRC. Further, the CCWB facilitates, monitors and evaluates child related interventions in the country.

The CCWB has been contributing and ensuring the child rights in Nepal from the beginning of its establishment. According to the National Plan of Action (NPA) for Children-Nepal (2004/5-14/15 AD) the CCWB alongwith the Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare (MoWCSW) has played its role in planning, implementation and monitoring process. Similarly, the district level offices and/or

1 Section 32 of the Children's Act 2048 B.S. (1992)

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 1 | committees of the MoWCSW and CCWB coordinate, collaborate, monitor and evaluate the district-level plans and programs, including implementation of their own programs2.

As a part of its responsibility, the CCWB has been monitoring Child Care Homes (CCHs) from the beginning of its functionalization in general, and since early 2008 in particular.

Though the family is the best place for healthy growth of children, the extended family could be the next best option for those children who have no own parents. In Nepal, many parentless children found kept in the CCHs. The Government of Nepal has policies and Standards for operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes, 2012 to monitor and regulate the CCHs. These initiatives are aimed at ensuring rights of the child and uphold best interest of the child living in such institutions. In this respect, the government holds accountability to monitor the CCHs to ensure their operation as per the law, regulations and the guidelines. This report intends to share the status of the CCHs - facts and figures, problems, financial supports and progress.

1.2 Report Preparation Process

In order to prepare this report, the information was collected during renewal process of the CCHs, monitoring reports of the CCWB and the DCWB, previous reports on the CCHs. Other reports related to the CCHs were reviewed. Sampling forms were developed for data collection with intention of updating information as well as to verify existing information at the CCWB. While developing the form, wider consultation was organized with the CCHs Monitoring Unit and concerned persons. After finalization of the forms, it was circulated to Child Right Officers (CROs) in District Child Welfare Board (DCWB) of concerned 46 districts. The CROs collected the information from the CCHs in the concerned districts.

CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL

2.1 Description and Trend of the Child Care Homes

The CCHs are formed to provide care, support, education, health services and security to the needy children especially ones who are not in parental care and vulnerable children. Though CCH is the last option to keep orphan and vulnerable children, it has become a common practice to send those children in the CCHs. The CCHs are found operating either with the support of international organization and/or sponsorship of individual or religious groups and/or individual charity. Therefore, the numbers of the CCHs fluctuate from time to time. In 2008 a total of 454 CCHs3 were recorded, where as the number reached to 797 in 20134. But, the numbers of the CCHs decreased to 594 in 2014 altogether in 46 districts5. The recent data collected by the CCWB shows that the numbers of CCHs again slightly decreased to 585as of January 20156 in altogether 45 districts instead of 46 districts.

2.2 Nature of the Child Care Homes in Nepal

This section explains the nature of CCHs. The nature of CCHs can be categorized broadly into three types; (i) The Government run child welfare homes, in which there are four child welfare homes; (ii) Juvenile correction homes, in which there are three correction homes;

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 3 | and (iii) The non-governmental organizations (NGO) or by private sector run CCHs.

The CCHs run by the non-governmental organizations or by private sector can be categorized as per their objective. These are as follows; 1. CCHs for protection of children affected by armed conflict and disaster. 2. CCHs for protection of street children. 3. CCHs for protection of dependent children whose parent(s) are in prison. 4. CCHs for protection of children with disability. 5. CCHs for protection of children living with HIV/AIDS. 6. CCHs for protection of children abused/exploited sexually 7. CCHs for protection of orphaned and helpless children. 8. CCHs for protection of trafficked children and child labour. 9. CCHs for protection of children of specific religion. 10. Residential transit homes and shelters for rescued children. However some CCHs are in operation to provide services to more than one catagories of children.

Source: DCWB and CCWB Record as of December, 2014

The table 1 shows that there are 585 CCHs, in which a total of 15811 children (7973 boys and 7838 girls) live there for fulfilling their basic needs. Only 45 districts out of 75 in Nepal have CCHs in operation varying number of CCHs from one to 205. There are 17 districts, where only one CCH is in operation per district, where as Kathmandu district alone has 205 CCHs. In terms of number of children staying in the CCHs, the CCHs in Dailekh has only four children followed by six each in Ilam and Dhanusha districts. By number of children living in the CCHs, 84 CCHs have children less than ten followed by 40 CCHs having only ten children and 28 CCHs having only 11 children as of information received till the end of December 2014. This shows that about 26 percent of the total CCHs in operation are having only 11 and less than 11 children. Further, there are noticeable number of CCHs which have children between 12 and 13. The details of the CCHs are given in Annex 1.

The table 2 presents the number of the CCHs operated in each of five development region of the country and children living in the CCHs.

Among the five development regions the central development region alone has 76 percent (444 CCHs) followed by the western development region (80 CCHs). The far-western region has only 2 percent of the total CCHs (11 CCHs) followed by four percent each in the both eastern and mid-western development region (25 CCHs each). The table 2 also shows the region-wise number of children and its percentage. As the maximum numbers of the CCHs are operated in the Central Region, the numbers of children are also maximum in this region [12228 children (77 percent), where boys are 6101 (49.89%) and girls are 6127 (50.11%)]. The minimum numbers of children (211, 0.13%)) are in the CCHs in the far western region, where the percentage of the CCHs represent two percent out the total of the country. On the whole, the ratio of boys and girls living in the CCHs is more or less similar.

The number of the CCHs in different year and number of districts differ year by year, which is presented in the table 3.

The Table 3 shows that within the last four years and in the beginning of 2015, the maximum numbers (797) of CCHs were functional in 2013, whereas the minimum numbers (585) of CCHs were functional by January 2015. It also shows the fluctuated numbers in the both registered number of the CCHs and the districts.

2.4 Major Five Districts Having High Numbers of Child Care Homes

Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Kaski, Chitwan and Bhaktapur are the top 5 districts, which have maximum numbers of CCHs. Five years trend of CCHs in those five districts is presented in the table 4.

The above table shows that the trend of the CCHs is noticeable in four districts except Bhaktapur. The maximum fluctuation is seen in

| 8 | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 Kathmandu district which is followed by Lalitpur. It indicates that the numbers of the CCHs are concentrated in the capital city.

Kathmandu District: The highest numbers of CCHs are in Kathmandu district. In 2008, there were 1667 and in 2014 there were 223 CCHs8. Reasons behind having the highest number of child care homes in Kathmandu might be easy access in health, education, communication, infrastructure development and so on. The recent update by DCWB shows that there are all together 205 CCHs with 6279 children (2903 boys and 3376 girls). It shows the decreasing number of the CCHs in the district.

Lalitpur District: The second highest numbers of the CCHs are located in Lalitpur district. In 2008, there were 94 CCHs in the district, and the number of CCHs increased to 1209 with 2847 children (1523 boys and 1324 girls) in 2014 and reached to 134 with 2986 children (1489 boys and 1497 girls)10 in 2015. Most of the CCHs are located at Godawari, Bagdol, Nakhipot, Dholahiti, Dhapakhel and Bhaisepati area of the district.

Kaski District Kaski district falls in the third rank in terms of the high number of the CCHs. In 2008, there were 47 CCHs and reached to 63 with 1442 children (678 boys and 764 girls) in 2015 in the ditrict. Among 1442 children, 22 are with disability (7 boys and 15 girls), 26 HIV infected (14 boys and 12 girls), 22 HIV affected children (5 boys and 17 girls) and 46 conflict affected children (27 boys and 19 girls).

The district is in the fourth rank having high number of CCHs. It shows that there is high increment of CCHs within the district. Within the period of 6 years, 12 new CCHs have been registered.

Bhaktapur District In 2008, there were 13 CCHs in the district. Since 2011 the number of registered CCHs is more or less constant. In 2014, there were a total of 706 (420 boys and 286 girls) children in 21 CCHs in the district12.

2.5 Institutional Care Run by Sahid Pratisthan

Sahid Pratisthan has been managing residential schools in five districts representing one each in each development region for the children affected by armed conflict since BS 2066. The information of Sahid Pratisthan and the children living there have not been included in the above tables.

The highest numbers of children (432) are in Dang and the minimum numbers of children (213) are in Dolkha. It indicates that the children affected by armed conflict in mid-western region over weight to other development regions.

2.6 Problems and Challenges of the Child Care Homes in Nepal

The problems and challenges seen in the CCHs against the 'Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes' and faced by the CCHs are briefly presented as follows:

• There is insufficent coordination among government and the CCHsregarding managing CCHs and mobilizing available resources to protect the rights of children.

• Some children in the CCHs have been found admitted with insufficient documents and some with false identification. As a consequence obtaining birth registration certificate for those children has been diffeicut.

• Many CCHs were found to have no proper documentation on rescue, admission process, and rehabilitation and reintegration process.

• Many CCHs operators have insufficient knowledge on child rights, Children’s Act, Child Protection Policy and Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-2012. Consequently, some CCHs have not met the minimum standard.

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 11 | • Many CCHs have been found lacking financial transparency and sustainable fund raising plan for operation of the CCHs.

• It has also been reported that some children are sexually abused in CCHs or residential/institutional care. In 2014, two cases were registered against CCHs accusing sexual exploitation of girls (four were victimized) and as decided by the district court, perpetrators were sent to prison. Two complaints of pedophilia in the CCHs were also filed against international volunteers.

Poverty of parents has been identified as one of the aggravating factors for the separation of children from family, though it is not the sole reason. It is easy to get consent of parents to take their children away when someone allures them with a promise of better education and better stay for their children. Poor and ignorant families without adequate means of supports for their children see these types of offer as beter option without knowing the consequences. Child protection system needs strengthening along with family support programs.

Strong and effecting gatekeeping mechanism may prevent unnecessary and illegal separation of children from families.

EFFORTS OF THE CENTRAL CHILD WELFARE BOARD

This chapter presents the efforts made by the Central Child Welfare Board in adopting and effectively using‘Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-2012' during 2014.

3.1 Capacity Building (Training/ Workshop/ Conference)

• CCWB organized a conference in Kathmandu for representatives of the Child Care Homes to brief about the existing laws, rules and regulation, and the 'Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes' on 13th April, 2014. The Chief Secretary of Government of Nepal, Mr. Lilamani Poudel was the chief guest of the program, and 216 founders and managers of Child Care Homes within Kathmandu Valley participated in the program.

• CCWB also organized couple of additional orientation programs in Kathmandu on the 'Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-2012' to the key staffs, home in-charge, child protection officer and home manager, who have day to day responsibility to take care of children in the CCHs of Kathmandu Valley. Altogether 299 persons participated from 238 CCHs.

• A Two-dayorientation program on the 'Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-2012' was organized at Bhedetar, Dhankuta to the staffs and managers of the CCHs located in the Eastern Development Region of the country.

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 13 | The orientation brought together 67 participants of 49 CCHsof17 districts (Makawanpur, Parsa, Bara, Rautahat, Sarlahi, Mahatari, Dhanusha, Sindhuli, Siraha, Saptari, Udayapur, Sunari, Morang, Dhankuta, Sankhuwashabha, Ilam and Jhapa).

• Similarly, one orientation was organized at Nepalganj, Banke to the staffs and managers of CCHs in the Mid and Far Western Region. A total of 21 participants from 17 CCHs(Surkhet, Banke, Kanchanpur, Kailai, Dang, Dailekh district including participants from Help Line and Transit Shelter) participated in the program.

• Orientation was also organized for the staffs and managers of 17 CCHs (listed for adoption) on alternative care, adoption process and transparency. The orientation was conducted in collaboration with inter-country adoption management board.

• A summit was organized in Kathmandu for Child Care Home Federation to come up with creative agendas for better operation of the Child Care Homes.

Altogether seven orientation programs were organized in the country in 2014, in which over 600 concerned stakeholders participated. The orientations were useful to make the participants aware on the 'Standard for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes - 2012', National child protection policy - 2012, UNCRC-1989, Children’s Act - 1992 and Guideline on Alternative care. In addition, an orientation to Monitoring Committee was held on 21st October 2014 at the Local Development Training Centre, Jawalakhel, Lalitpur. The participants were high level monitoring committee members (Composition of Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Education, Department of Women and Children, Women and Children Service Directorate of Nepal Police), CCWB Board Members, CCWB/ DCWB's monitoring staffs, CWO and CROs of Kathmandu valley.

| 14 | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 3.2 Monitoring of Child Care Homes CCWB monitored 67 CCHs in Kathmandu valley in 2014. During visits, the CCHs were made aware on the implementation of the the Standard for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes - 2012, National Child Protection Policy - 2012, UNCRC-1989, Children’s Act-1992 and UN Guidelines on Alternative Care - 2009. In the monitoring visits, most of the CCHs were found not meeting standards of children admission process, health insurance, child protection policy and financial transparency. It was also found that some CCHs were running without any clear mandates. Besides, some other critical issues were also identified during the monitoring visits like, religious influences, lack of socialization opportunities to the children, lack of addressing mechanism for the complaints from children and staying volunteers (national/international) in the CCHs. The DCWBs continue to monitor CCHs in their respective districts.

3.3 Children Rescued, Reintegration and Rehabilitation Since 2006 the CCWB and DCWBs have been closely monitoring the CCHs, and has found many CCHs which have not met minimum standards as prescribed in the Standards of Operating and Management of Residential Child Care Homes 2012. Even fundamental rights of children have not been fulfilled in some of the CCHs. In such case, the CCWB/DCWB management team decided to take immediate actions to ensure protection of the children living in such institutions. Between 2006 and February 2015 a total of 328 children (200 boys and 128 girls) have been rescued by the CCWB/ DCWBs. Among them only 200 children (Boys-112, Girls-88) could be reintegrated in family whereas 128 children could not be reintegrated because of fake documentation while the children admitted in the CCHs. Altogether 127 children (M- 84, F-43) were rescued from nine CCHs from Kathmandu Valley and

Beside above mentioned interventions in order to prevent unnecessary separation of children from the family, public service announcements (PSA) were aired on various forms of media including local FM and Kantipur FM in raising awareness on issues of child protection in CCHs, family preservation, child referral mechanism and child entry process especially in Karnali zone focusing to Kalikot, Mugu, Jumla, Humla and Dolpa district.These PSAs were broadcased in the local languages spoken in these regions, too.

3.4 Financial Support Provided to the Child Care Homes by the CCWB Besides technical support, the CCWB has also been providing financial support to the CCHs. CCWB has given priority to provide financial support to those CCHs which have kept children with disability, conflict affected and helpless children. Between the fiscal year 2010/11 and 2014/15, the CCWB provided a total of Rs. 18,00,000. The fiscal year-wise financial support provided to the CCHs is given inAnnex 3.

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 17 | 3.5 Major Progress up to 2014

This section presents the information regarding initiatives taken by the Central Child Welfare Board in course of improving the implementation of the Standard for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-201', National child protection policy - 2012, UNCRC-1989, Children’s Act – 1992 and UN Guidelines on Alternative Care - 2009 for the protection and promotion of the rights of children. The progress on policy intervention and the CCHs monitoring, operation and alternative care are briefly explained as follows:

3.5.1 Progress on Policy Intervention

• The Government of Nepal has incorporated some of the issues of CCHs in Children’s Act - 1992, Children’s Rules - 1995 and Children Policy - 2012.

• The Government of Nepal introduced Child Welfare Home Operation Guideline – 1998.

• There was Minimum Standard on Child Care Home Operation and Management Guidelines – BS 2060 (AD 2003) and later the Standard for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Homes-2012 was introduced incorporating key aspects for monitoring of the CCHs.

3.5.2 Progress on Child Care Home Monitoring, Operation and Alternative care

• Developed monitoring forms and formats for effective monitoring of the CCHs along with the Code of Conduct

| 18 | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 for Monitoring CCHs. However, there is still a need of data base management.

• Reviewed Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Home -2012 with series of consultations among the stakeholders including regional orientations to the members of CCHs. The inputs will be used in the revision of Standards for Operation and Management of Residential Child Care Home 2012.

• 'Alternative Care (Procedural Regulation)' drafted in collaboration with the Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare for further process. The family preservation; institutional care is last resort, gate keeping mechanism, different forms of alternative care like kinship care, foster care, independent living arrangement and care in the family are some major contents of the draft document of alternative care. The draft has been prepared on the basis of National Children’s Policy 2012, Children’s Act- 1992, UN Guidelines on Alternative Care 2009 and other international standards.

The regular monitoring of the CCHs contributed in improving admission process as well as referral and recommendation process. This effort further contributed in mainstreaming operation of the CCHs with the Government law and policies.

CONCLUSIONS

Operating CCHs has been age-long practice in Nepal. Initially, the CCHs were operated especially motivated by the cause of social service and where mostly abandoned children were provided with residential facilities and, the financial resources were limited to the charity. As time passed, the operation of CCHs increased all over the country but concentrated mostly in urban areas and, the financial supports for the homes also expanded from government to individual and national to international organizations as well as individuals.

As the Government of Nepal ratified the CRC, some legal, policy and program measures were also developed to protect and promote the rights of the children. So was applied to the operation of and facilitation to the CCHs, and the regular monitoring of the homes was also conducted in line with the policy, guidelines and the standards.

Coming to the beginning of 2015, a total of 585 CCHs are in operation. Few CCHs are yet to register in the government mechanism. The operations of the CCHs are mostly concentrated in an urban setting especially in the Kathmandu valley and Pokhara. These CCHs are generally operated to provide protection for children affected by armed conflict and disaster, street children, children with disability, children living with HIV/AIDS, orphaned and helpless children, trafficked children and child labour.

There are 17 districts, where only one CCH is in operation per district, and among them about half CCHs have only 10 and less than 10

| 20 | STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 children. Out of 585 CCHs, 84 homes have children less than ten followed by 40 CCHs having only ten children and 28 CCHs having only 11 children as of information received till end of December 2014. This shows that about 26 percent of the total CCHs in operation are having only 11 and less than 11 children. Further, there are noticeable number of CCHs which have children between 12 and 13.

The information collected from the monitoring reports and annual reports not only shows that many CCHs have not met the set standards but also indicates that some homes are even unaware about the standards of CCHs operation and less informed about the existence of the CCWB and DCWB. This situation clearly points out the negligence of following the existing rules, regulation & procedure and to create child-friendly environment at the CCHs. Moreover, it can be sensed that some CCHs are motivated towards getting more supports from the local and international donors/sources.

The CCWB/DCWB has also rescued a total of 328 children (200 boys and 128 girls) from the CCHs that were found to be in pathetic situation during the monitoring and also based on the complaints received from concerned stakeholders. Among them 200 children (Boys-112, Girls-88) were reintegrated in their family whereas 128 children, whose documents were fake and faced difficulties in tracing out their family/relatives, could not be reintegrated. They were referred to other better run CCHs.

The finding of the report also concludes that there are some doubts on the issues of financial transparency, child-friendly environment, and exploitation/abuse of children among some CCHs. On the other hand, few children have faced difficulties in obtaining citizenship certificate.

STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 STATE OF THE CHILD CARE HOMES IN NEPAL, 2015 | 21 | For further improvement in the operation of CCHs, the district level CCH Monitoring Committee requires to monitor the CCHs regularly as per Standards for operational and Management of Residential Child Care Homes, 2012. It needs to increase the minimum number of children at the CCH and to set provision of adequate trained staff to take care children at the CCHs as well. In addition, the CCHs must assure financial resources to provide basic facilities and services to those children. Each and every CCH must be well transparent in their financial resources and utilization of the resources. At the same time, the CCH operators must be provided with the orientation and training about the minimum standards, child rights and child friendly environment on a periodic basis.

On the whole, this report is a good documentation of the CCHs running in Nepal though it could not include all required information like, sustainability plan of the CCHs, secured plan for outgoing children from the CCHs, transparency on the source of cash and kind supports, managerial capacity, and documentation and reporting mechanism etc.
