There is not a single country where women and girls enjoy equal access to justice. At the current pace, it will take 286 years to get there. Nepal is no exception. As the global community convenes for the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW70), we are reminded that progress requires more than promises, it demands action.

 From strengthening legal protections to dismantling systemic barriers, we must work collectively so that every woman and girl can claim her rights, seek justice, and thrive in dignity and equality.

 Today, and every day, we stand for rights. We stand for justice. And we commit to bold, transformative action for all women and girls.
