Human Rights and Justice Centre

Human Rights and Justice Centre (HRJC) is a non-governmental organization, which improves access to justice for victims of human rights violations in Nepal, such as torture, enforced disappearances, extrajudicial executions, and conflict-related sexual violence. Registered in Nepal in 2016 and based in Lalitpur, it was created with the support of TRIAL International, a Geneva-based NGO specializing in seeking justice for survivors of mass atrocities. Our mission is to create a culture of human rights compliance and accountability in Nepal and act as a catalyst for social change based on the principles of justice and substantive equality. We envision a just society where there is easy accessibility to justice for the victims of human rights violations and abuses. Cover image © Kaushal Sapkota | TRIAL International
