The core values of the organization are:

Children are the foundation of the new Nepal and should be given first priority in development.

Children are the foundation for the new Nepal. Therefore their voices and choices must be respected by the people to ensure their active and meaningful participation and development so that they can freely exercise their rights and entitlements in society for their protection and survival.

All forms of violence and discrimination are intolerable and unacceptable.

All forms of violence and discrimination—whether caste and ethnicity-based, gender-based, domestic, against girls and women, Dalits, or people with disabilities—are intolerable and unacceptable.

Information empowers people. Deprivation of the right to information is non-negotiable.

We believe that information empowers people to claim their fundamental rights and entitlements. This can be done through the provision of basic information regarding services of the government for the people of the nation. Hence, the denial of the right to information is non-negotiable in terms of marginalized people, especially girls, women, youth, Dalit, Janajati, Muslims, and people with disabilities.

Education is the solution to ending poverty.

We have come to understand that people are poor due to the absence of education rather than uneducated due to poverty. Therefore, we believe that education is the solution to ending poverty.
