Strengthen Accountability and Governance under ACCESS Project

On 22 March 2025, an agreement was signed between Accountability Lab Nepal and LIFE Nepal to collaborate on the implementation of the ACCESS Project. Under this partnership, LIFE Nepal has been implementing the project titled “Education for All: CivActs Model to Strengthen Accountability and Governance” in Madhesh Province, Nepal. The initiative aims to enhance educational inclusion, promote local accountability, and strengthen governance systems through citizen engagement and community-based monitoring, contributing to the achievement of SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
