The importance of public participation in law making has been recognized globally. Law is itself a matter of public concern. As long as the general people are not engaged in the law making process, they cannot feel ownership on the outcome thereby resulting in poor implementation of laws. Public participation in law making process is one of the norms of the democratic practice and on the other hand it is the right of the people to participate in the law making that affects them. But, this concept is not well defined and practiced in Nepal. So, the NLPC commissioned a research on Citizen Engagement in Law Making aiming to: i) evaluate Nepal’s situation in this regard, ii) document best practices of other democratic countries, iii) and provide recommendations to improve the status and quality of citizen engagement in Nepal in the law making sphere. After an in-depth study, a draft report was prepared and presented in a discussion programme held on 13 March 2020 in Kathmandu, where various experts and stakeholders including Parliamentarians, lawyers, political analysts, journalists and civil society activists participated and expressed their views. Incorporating views of the participants of the discussion, a final report has been prepared that provides comprehensive information on the issues mentioned in the research objectives. The report will be available on this site soon.
