CZOP has successfully coordinated for the formation of a Parliamentary Forum for Child Rights at the federal level as well as Provincial Level. During this period, three meetings were held and the forum strongly disagreed with proposals to lower the legal marriage age for children from 20 to 18. Additionally, forums have been established in five provinces i.e. Sudurpaschim, Karnali, Lumbini, Madhesh and Bagmati provinces by March 2025. CZOP is planning to form the Parliamentary Forum for Child Rights in remaining Koshi and Gandaki Provinces by June 2025. This forum has become a crucial platform for raising children’s voices in the parliament and beyond.
