Years of Relentless Advocacy

After years of persistent effort, advocacy, and engagement as a key stakeholder, BVS Nepal’s relentless efforts have finally brought the Human Body Bill to the Ministry’s website for public suggestions.

This is an important milestone in our journey toward strengthening the rights, dignity, and care of burn survivors. We are proud to have contributed to this process and will continue to advocate for meaningful, survivor-centred policies.

BVS-Nepal extends warm greetings on International Youth Day 2026.
Theme by National Youth Council: “Different Contexts, Common Aspirations” Burn injuries, violence, self-harm, and their long-term effects are often overlooked. As youth, we can prevent injuries, promote safety, support survivors, and build safer communities.
Youth can prevent, Youth can care, Youth can make a difference.

BVS-Nepal को तर्फबाट अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय युवा दिवस २०२६ को हार्दिक शुभकामना !
राष्ट्रिय युवा परिषद्को यस वर्षको नारा: “भिन्न परिवेश, साझा आकांक्षा”
जलनका घटना, हिंसा, आत्मदाह तथा त्यसबाट हुने दीर्घकालीन असरहरू अझै पनि पर्याप्त रूपमा सम्बोधन हुन सकेका छैनन्।
युवाहरूको सक्रिय सहभागिताबाट जलन तथा अन्य दुर्घटनाको रोकथाम, सुरक्षित व्यवहारको प्रवर्द्धन, प्रभावित व्यक्तिहरूलाई सहयोग र सुरक्षित समुदाय निर्माण गर्न सकिन्छ।
युवा रोकथाम गर्न सक्छन्, युवा सहयोग गर्न सक्छन्, युवा परिवर्तन ल्याउन सक्छन।

Today, we had the opportunity to meet with Parliamentarian hon Ram kumari jhakri to discuss the urgent need to amend the National Criminal Code (Muluki Aparadh Samhita), 2074, to ensure greater justice for burn survivors.

Our discussion focused on the disparity between Section 192A, which addresses injuries caused by acid attacks, and Section 193, which covers injuries caused by flammable, corrosive, biological, or toxic substances. Burn survivors covered under both provisions often endure the same severity of physical injuries, psychological trauma, financial burden, and long-term social consequences. Yet, the legal recognition and corresponding penalties remain unequal.

We appreciate the her time, thoughtful engagement, and commitment to advancing legal reforms that better protect the rights and dignity of burn survivors.
