The right of conflict-affected populations to receive basic assistance is guaranteed by international humanitarian law.The term operational space, referred to throughout this report, describes the freedom of development and humanitarian organizations to assist beneficiaries and implement projects independently of military and political interference. In Nepal, the impartiality of aid and the degree of access to the needy has been codified through the UN and donor agencies’ Basic Operating Guidelines (BOGs), a set of measurable working principles that organizations have to apply and advocate on.
