Through ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ท๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐—”๐—”๐—ฆ๐—ง๐—›๐—”, these young leaders came together to sharpen their advocacy skills, deepen their understanding of child rights and governance processes and explore how evidence and research can drive change. They reflected on the challenges children face across local, provincial and federal levels and transformed their ideas into practical advocacy recommendations and action plans.

What made the workshop truly special was witnessing children take ownership of their voices questioning, analyzing, researching and envisioning solutions for issues that matter to them and their peers. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ก

Today, as they continue their work in their respective provinces, we celebrate their commitment, leadership and determination to create a Nepal where every child's voice is heard and valued. ๐ŸŒŸ

This activity was conducted by Consortium-Nepal with the support of Misean Cara.

๐Ÿ“ข๐ŸŒToday is World Day Against Child Labour.

Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, play, participate and grow in a safe environment. Yet, for millions of children around the world, childhood is interrupted by labour that limits their rights, potential and well-being.

Ending child labour requires more than keeping children out of work. It means ensuring access to education, strengthening protection systems and supporting families and communities with opportunities for sustainable and dignified livelihoods. ๐Ÿงฉ

Across Nepal, we are supporting children affected by exploitation in Adult Entertainment Sectors, facilitating the safe return and reintegration of children rescued from different parts of India, promoting meaningful child participation and strengthening child protection mechanisms at local level to help create safer environments for children.๐Ÿ›ก๏ธโœจ

In May 2026, a coordinated cross-border rescue operation successfully brought 453 Nepali nationals to safety after they had fallen victim to labor exploitation and a fraudulent chain-business scam in Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh, India. The operation was carried out through the joint efforts of the Embassy of Nepal in India, Uttar Pradesh Police, KIN India, GSIF Nepal and Opportunity Village Nepal (OVN).

Many of the individuals had been lured by promises of attractive employment opportunities and later became trapped in exploitative conditions linked to deceptive recruitment and fraudulent business practices. Their rescue highlights the ongoing risks faced by migrant workers and job seekers who are targeted by such schemes.

This case underscores the need for greater awareness of safe migration practices, stronger protection mechanisms and continued cooperation among governments, law enforcement agencies, civil society organizations and communities. By working together, we can help prevent labor exploitation, human trafficking and other forms of abuse while ensuring that vulnerable individuals have access to support and protection.

We extend our sincere gratitude to all government authorities, law enforcement agencies, partner organizations and frontline responders whose collaboration and dedication made this operation possible and helped ensure the safety and protection of the affected individuals.

GSIF Nepal remains committed to safeguarding vulnerable individuals and strengthening efforts to prevent human trafficking, labor exploitation, and all forms of trafficking.
