About Equity Society Nepal (ESN)

ESN is a non-profit, non-partisan, non-governmental organization in Nepal, working since 2023 with Dalit, women, and persons with disabilities, as well as individuals who face untouchability, discrimination, oppression, injustice, inequality, and deprivation due to pervasive caste-based discrimination. ESN undertakes evidence-based research, policy dialogue, and advocacies to promote justice, equality, civil freedom, human rights and democracy.

In this alignment, ESN has been implementing a new project "Promoting dignity and political participation of Person with Disabilities in Nepal –The CLAIM" in partnership with Nepal Voters’ Rights Forum (NVRF), with primary financial support from the European Union (EU). The project is being implemented through a consortium of five organizations, led by NVRF, with four co-applicants: Dalit with Disabilities Association Nepal (DDAN), Purple Foundation (PF), YUWA, and Equity Society Nepal (ESN). The project impact is "Enhanced effective and inclusive political participation and representation of marginalized groups, particular persons with disabilities in Nepal."
