Equity & Justice
Social equity and justice are at the heart of a peaceful and prosperous society. The Alternative Foundation is committed to addressing the root causes of social exclusion and discrimination that persist across gender, caste, ethnicity, geography, and ability. It advocates for the rights and dignity of all individuals by promoting equitable access to opportunities, services, and resources. The Foundation recognizes that meaningful inclusion and representation of marginalized voices in decision-making processes are essential to building a just and cohesive society.
Its initiatives focus on human rights education, inclusive policy development, legal empowerment, and grassroots mobilization to challenge systemic inequalities. By creating platforms for dialogue and amplifying the voices of excluded groups, the Foundation seeks to dismantle barriers to justice and promote transformative change. This thematic area is led by Mr. Udaya Manandhar, a respected development expert.
