This paper analyzes and summarizes the current understanding of child labour in Nepal,
its determinants, and existing donor and civil society policy recommendations submitted
to His Majesty's Government. It proposes, as a step towards implementing these
recommendations, a series of low cost and shorter-term action recommendations. It is the
wish of the cooperating agencies of the UCW Nepal Project, that in beginning a dialogue
with His Majesty's Government on these possible actions, that a way can be found to
quickly advance the common agenda to eliminate child labour.
