Nepal’s Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) working in the field of economic, social and cultural rights, for the first time, has formed a National Network for Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.  The CSOs also confirmed that the deep-rooted discrimination, exclusion and the denial of ESCR rights was one of the key causes of the decade long conflict in Nepal. It is crucial to timely address the pending economic, social and cultural rights related problems for the lasting peace.
