NCCN campaigning for Peace, Justice and Religious freedom

After decade long conflict and people’s movement-2, Nepalese people got an opportunity to elect the constituent Assembly members to draft the new constitution of Nepal.  It is the first time in the history of Nepal that people are being involved in the constitution making process. With the participation of people of all class, creed and religion, the election of the constitution assembly held successfully and now the country is heading towards the drafting of new constitution and restructuring of the nation. NCCN, as the representative body of Christians in Nepal, made a great contribution in the overall peace process of Nepal.
Giving more emphasis to its  campaign for the equality, inclusiveness, guarantee of justice  and full religious freedom in the New constitution of Nepal,  NCCN launched a programme  under the theme of  the “Role of religious communities  in the process of making  new constitution and Religious freedom in New constitution”  It was the  need of the time.

Under this theme NCCN has been organizing seminars, conferences and interaction programmes in the different parts of the country.

Some of the major activities carried out recently under this programme are as briefed below;

1.       Church leaders conference on the “Religious Communities’ involvement in the constitution making process and guarantee of full religious freedom in New Constitution of Nepal”,1-2 November 2008, Gorkha
