The struggle of Nepal’s indigenous peoples for the recognition of their fundamental human rights has been a long one, and is entering an important period in this democratic transition. As Nepalis work to end the long conflict and build lasting peace, and to transform the state in the democratic spirit of the People’s Movement,indigenous Nepalis rightly see this as a time to ensure that their rights are enshrined in the state’s policies and legal framework and that concrete action is taken to protect and promote those rights.
