Legal Aid and Consultancy Center (LACC) has been a pioneering organization in Nepal, dedicated to protecting and promoting human rights and advancing gender justice. Its work focuses particularly on women, minorities, and accountability, ensuring that individuals and communities can claim their rights while holding government and other actors responsible for upholding them.

Gender-based violence and gender inequality remain among the most pervasive violations of human rights. Without guaranteeing gender justice and safeguarding fundamental rights, it is impossible to envision an equitable and just society. Guided by its vision of creating such a society, LACC works at the intersection of human rights and gender justice, addressing systemic barriers and empowering marginalized groups.

LACC’s initiatives encompass advocacy, movement-building, integrated service delivery and awareness campaigns on critical human rights issues, including Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR), Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and climate justice, human trafficking, and Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV). These efforts are implemented through diverse strategies such as policy dialogues, advocacy programs, rallies, campaigns, workshops, seminars, and the mobilization of trained networks. Together, these interventions reinforce LACC’s role as a catalyst for systemic change and a trusted leader in advancing justice and equality in Nepal.
