Child protection Promotion Focusing on Addressing Child Marriage program
Location: 12 Districts of Lumbini Province including 109 Local Governments
Funding Partner: UNICEF
2019 September – August 2026
The project aims to promote child protection by preventing child marriage through awareness, community engagement, and strengthened local systems. It empowers children, parents, and community leaders—especially through the RUPANTARAN classes—to understand the risks of child marriage and adopt positive behaviors. By building local capacity and improving coordination with schools and municipalities, the program works to create a safe, supportive environment where children can grow, learn, and pursue their futures free from early marriage.
