The ongoing internal armed conflict has caused a deterioration of the situation. Many women and children are internally displaced as a direct result of the conflict, leaving conflict-afflicted areas of the country in search of economic stability and as well as protection and security.many Nepali non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) quote the lack of shelters and legal and public policies to combat male violence against women and girls as one important underlying reason for the trafficking in human beings, especially of women and girls. Women and children flee their family homes as a result of having been subjected to different forms of violence such as physical, sexual and emotional abuse by male relatives, to an uncertain future, often in urban areas, where they risk being recruited and trafficked for prostitution purposes or for forced labor within Nepal or to other countries in the region.According to the MoU, the ONRT is to located within the institutional structure of the NHRC.
