  • The Effectiveness of Local Peace Committees in Nepal: a Study from Bardiya District
    Researching livelihoods and services affected by conflict The Effectiveness of Local Peace Committees in Nepal: A study from Bardiya district Working Paper 40 Annal Tandukar, Bishnu Raj Upreti, Suman Babu Paudel, Gopikesh Acharya and Daniel Harris June 2016 About us Secure Livelihoods Research Consortium (SLRC) aims to generate a stronger evidence base on how people make a living, educate their children, deal with illness and access other basic services in conflict-affected situations (CAS). Providing better access to basic services, social protection and support to livelihoods matters for the human welfare of people affected by conflict, the achievement of development targets such as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and international efforts at peace- and state-building. At the centre of SLRC’s research are three core themes, developed over the course of an intensive one- year inception phase: . State legitimacy: experiences, perceptions and expectations of the state and local governance in conflict-affected situations . State capacity: building effective states that deliver services and social protection in conflict- affected situations . Livelihood trajectories and economic activity under conflict The Overseas Development Institute (ODI) is the lead organisation. SLRC partners include the Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) in Sri Lanka, Feinstein International Center (FIC, Tufts University), the Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU), the Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI) in Pakistan, Disaster Studies of Wageningen University (WUR) in the Netherlands, the Nepal Centre for Contemporary Research (NCCR), and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Acknowledgements This publication has only been possible thanks to the cooperation of the key respondents in Bardiya district. The authors are grateful to Rachel Gordon and Martina Santschi for their reviews and valuable suggestions for strengthening the report.

  • Nepal Breached Its Treaty Obligations: Human Rights Committee Directives to the Government of Nepal to Provide Effective Remedy Within 180 Days
    Nepal breached its Treaty Obligations: Human Rights Committee Directives to the Government of Nepal to provide effective remedy within 180 days In a decision passed on 12 April 2011, UN Human Rights Committee (UN-HRC) has once again held the government of Nepal responsible for breaching treaty obligations under the International Covenant for Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). AF welcomes the decision of the committee and requests government of Nepal to respect the decision and take prompt actions to fulfill its obligation to provide effective remedies by ensuring thorough and diligent investigation into the torture and ill-treatment suffered by torture survivor Yubraj Giri, the prosecution and punishments of those responsible and provide victims and his family with adequate compensation for the violations suffered. In doing so the State is also responsible for ensuring the protection of the victims and his family from possible acts of reprisal or intimidation. The committee has further asked the government of Nepal to submit the progress made in this regard to the committee within 180 days as stated by the committee. The First Optional Protocol of International Covenant for Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) allows individuals, whose countries are party to the ICCPR and the protocol, who claim their rights guaranteed by the ICCPR have been breached, and who have exhausted existing domestic legal remedies in the pursuit of justice, can submit written communications to the UN Human Rights Committee (HRC). Nepal is a party to both the ICCPR and its protocol. On 29 April 2004, between 4 and 5pm, Yubraj Giri was arbitrarily arrested in Laknawar village, Ward No.
