🌸 Happy International Women’s Day!

On this important day, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and achievements of women everywhere. Let us work together to ensure that every woman has access to decision-making spaces, resources, and equal opportunities, so her voice is heard and her leadership is recognized.

When women gain equal access to resources and opportunities, they gain the power to transform families, communities, and the world. Let us continue building an environment where every woman feels empowered, respected, and supported to lead and thrive.

✨ Slogan: “Give Women Access, and All of Us Gain.”


🌸 अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय महिला दिवसको हार्दिक शुभकामना!

यस महत्वपूर्ण दिनमा संसारभरका महिलाहरूको शक्ति, संघर्ष र उपलब्धिहरूलाई सम्मान गरौँ। हरेक महिलाले निर्णय प्रक्रियामा सहभागिता जनाउन, स्रोतसाधनमा पहुँच पाउन र समान अवसर प्राप्त गर्न सकून्, ताकि उनीहरूको आवाज सुन्न सकियोस् र नेतृत्वलाई मान्यता मिलोस्।

जब महिलाहरूले स्रोतसाधन र अवसरमा समान पहुँच पाउँछन्, तब उनीहरूले परिवार, समुदाय र समाजलाई सकारात्मक रूपमा परिवर्तन गर्न सक्छन्। आउनुहोस्, हरेक महिला सशक्त, सम्मानित र सहयोग प्राप्त गर्ने वातावरण निर्माण गरौँ।

✨ नारा: “महिलालाई पहुँच दिऔँ, हामी सबैले उपलब्धि हासिल गरौँ।”

स्वच्छ, निष्पक्ष र शान्तिपूर्ण निर्वाचनका लागि आचारसंहिताको पालना अनिवार्य छ। मत किनबेच, धम्की, हतियार प्रदर्शन, भोजभतेर र सामाजिक सञ्जालमा मिथ्या सूचना जस्ता गतिविधिहरू लोकतन्त्रविरुद्धका कार्य हुन्। जिम्मेवार नागरिक बनौं, मर्यादित र कानुनसम्मत सहभागिता गरौं।

A free, fair, and peaceful election requires strict adherence to the code of conduct. Vote buying, intimidation, weapon display, feast influence, and spreading misinformation on social media undermine democracy. Be responsible,participate ethically and lawfully.

अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरूको समान अधिकार र पूर्ण सहभागिताबिना साँचो समावेशी र पहुँचयुक्त निर्वाचन सम्भव हुँदैन ।

True democracy cannot exist without the equal rights, dignity, and full participation of persons with disabilities. Building an inclusive and accessible electoral system is our shared responsibility, ensuring that every citizen can exercise their right to vote without barriers👏🗣️

प्रेस विज्ञप्ति

आगामी फागुन २१ गते सम्पन्न हुन गइरहेको आसन्न प्रतिनिधि सभा सदस्य निर्वाचन, २०८२ का सन्दर्भमा निर्वाचन आयोग नेपाल (Election Commission, Nepal) ले सार्वजनिक गरिरहेका निर्वाचन प्रचारप्रसार तथा मतदाता शिक्षा सम्बन्धी सन्देशमूलक भिडियो सामग्रीहरूमा साङ्केतिक भाषाको दोभाषे तथा स्पष्ट र पढ्न सजिलो सबटाइटल समावेश नभएको विषय प्रति अपाङ्ग महिला सशक्तिकरण केन्द्र–कास्कीको गम्भीर ध्यानाकर्षण भएको छ ।
निर्वाचन सम्बन्धी सूचना प्रत्येक नागरिकको संवैधानिक तथा मौलिक अधिकारसँग प्रत्यक्ष सम्बन्धित विषय हो । पहुँचयुक्त सूचना बिना कुनै पनि नागरिकले स्वतन्त्र, सूचित र विवेकपूर्ण निर्णय गर्न सक्दैन । विशेष गरी अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि सूचना पहुँच सुनिश्चित गर्नु राज्य तथा सम्बन्धित निकायको स्पष्ट दायित्व हो । सुनाइ सम्बन्धी अपाङ्गता भएका, स्नायु विविधता सम्बन्धी अपाङ्गता जस्तैः बौद्धिक अपाङ्गता भएका, अटिज्म अपाङ्गता भएका तथा अन्य अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरूलाई लक्षित गरिएका सामग्रीहरूमा पहुँचयुक्त व्यवस्थाको अभावले उनीहरूलाई सूचनाबाट वञ्चित मात्र होइन, लोकतान्त्रिक प्रक्रियामा समान र अर्थपूर्ण सहभागिताबाट समेत टाढा पार्ने जोखिम उत्पन्न गर्दछ ।
यस अवस्थालाई मध्यनजर गर्दै अपाङ्ग महिला सशक्तिकरण केन्द्र–कास्कीले Election Commission, Nepal समक्ष निम्न विषयहरूमा तत्काल पहल गर्न आग्रह गर्दछः
• सम्पूर्ण भिडियो सामग्रीमा अनिवार्य रूपमा साङ्केतिक भाषाको दोभाषे र स्पष्ट, उच्च कन्ट्रास्ट तथा पढ्न सजिलो सबटाइटल समावेश गर्ने व्यवस्था मिलाउन,
• हालसम्म प्रसारण भएका सामग्रीहरूलाई प्राविधिक रूपमा सुधार गरी पहुँचयुक्त बनाउँदै पुनःप्रकाशन गर्न,
• अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरू तथा तिनका प्रतिनिधि संस्थासँग परामर्श गर्दै आगामी सबै सार्वजनिक सूचना सामग्री पहुँचयुक्त बनाउने स्पष्ट संस्थागत कार्ययोजना सहितको प्रतिवद्धता सार्वजनिक गर्न,
• निर्वाचन सम्बन्धी सूचना बहुआयामिक ढाँचामा उपलब्ध गराउने, जसमा अडियो सामग्री, सचित्र सरल भाषा, ब्रेल, तथा डिजिटल प्लेटफर्ममा पहुँचयुक्त (accessible) ढाँचा सुनिश्चित गरिएको होस् ।
समावेशी र उत्तरदायी लोकतन्त्रको आधार समान सूचना पहुँच हो । निर्वाचन प्रक्रियामा कुनै पनि नागरिक, विशेषतः अपाङ्गता भएका व्यक्तिहरू, सूचनाको अभावका कारण पछि पर्नु लोकतान्त्रिक मूल्य र सिद्धान्त अनुकूल हुँदैन । त्यसैले सम्बन्धित निकायले विषयको गम्भीरता बुझी तत्काल आवश्यक सुधारात्मक कदम चाल्नेछ भन्ने हाम्रो विश्वास तथा स्पष्ट अपेक्षा रहेको छ ।

भवदीय,
