Safety from the State data have not yet been produced for Nepal. We would like to expand our data to the whole world as soon as possible. To learn more about how you can help, please visit this page on the HRMI website.

Empowerment

Nepal's Empowerment score of 6.1 out of 10 suggests that many people are not enjoying their civil liberties and political freedoms (freedom of speech, assembly and association, and democratic rights).

For the civil and political rights we do not have data for enough countries in South Asia to do a regional comparison. However, compared to the other 38 countries in our sample, Nepal is performing close to average on empowerment rights.
