Interaction Program organized to recognize the roles of CSOs to end CEFM

6th August 2025, Kathmandu.

An interaction program on the role of civil society organizations in ending child, early, and forced marriage (CEFM), was jointly organized by NGO Federation of Nepal, Bhaktapur and Girls Not Brides Nepal.
The program was attended by 45 participants who engaged in discussions about policies related to child marriage. Participants expressed concerns over the ongoing amendments to the relevant law and emphasized the need to bring those who arrange or conduct child marriages under legal jurisdiction, increasing both the duration of penalties and the fines imposed.
All participants agreed on the urgent need for shared responsibility and coordinated efforts to end CEFM.
