Children As Constituency Of Peace

Children belong to the populace under 16 years of age until they are entitled to the identity of citizenship. Nepal’s demographic structure is youthful. Forty per cent of the nation’s population is under 18 years of age. This vibrant age group represents the youth bulge. Sustainable peace rests on the fulfilment of their creative potential, proper education and the scope for the realisation of their vigour and vitality. Respect for the children’s rights upholds supreme importance to reduce fear and scarcity, fortify the peaceful atmosphere and cultured character of this nation. Children are future citizens. Investing in them amounts to building Nepal’s future. Their proper upbringing can protect the nation’s sanity. The quest for their rights to education, health and a decent life enshrined in the constitution is a vital precondition to their social and emotional stability and loyalty.
