This International Day of Persons with Disabilities, I wanted to share this article I wrote that largely aligns with this year’s theme of Fostering disability inclusive societies for advancing social progress.

The oath ceremony isn't a finish line; it's a starting block.
True change means breaking centuries-old structures of exclusion. This movement must centre voices from the margins: Madhesi, Dalits, women, LGBTQI+. Not tokens, but leaders.
Watch who gets a seat at the table.
Nepal is in a fragile but hopeful moment. Sushila Karki has been appointed as the interim Prime Minister, and the parliament may be dissolved soon.
Nepal deserves more than relief; it deserves renewal. Let’s walk that path together.

CIVICUS calls on #Nepali authorities to end violent crackdowns on Gen Z-led protests against social media bans, corruption, and curtailed freedom of expression.
We mourn the loss of over 15 lives and urge authorities to end brutality and guarantee civic freedoms. #genznepal
STATE-SANCTIONED KILLING of youths is a THREAT TO INTERNATIONAL PEACE.
@antonioguterres, your duty is clear: Bring the massacre in Nepal before the #UNSC TONIGHT. Demand a resolution under Chapter VII for an immediate ceasefire and arms embargo. The world will not forget inaction
14+ killed. Hundreds injured. Nepal's government is waging war on its people.
@UN_HRC@volker_turk We call for an immediate Special Session on Nepal to:
- Establish an independent, international investigation mechanism
- Mandate the suspension of all security assistance to Nepal
@antonioguterres, the "shoot-to-kill" orders in Nepal are a blatant violation of international law. Your legacy is on the line. We demand an ultimatum to Nepal's government:
1. Cease all violence against protesters NOW.
2. sanctions, travel bans, and suspension from UN bodies.

@UN_Nepal Your "urge for restraint" is meaningless after 14+ bodies. You are complicit through weak rhetoric.
.@antonioguterres, we demand you:
- Publicly condemn the Nepali state for its brutality.
- Immediately deploy a team of UN human rights monitors to the streets.

@antonioguterres The systematic killing of unarmed #GenZ protesters by state forces in Nepal is not a domestic issue; it is a crime against humanity. Your statement is inadequate. We demand that you immediately support a referral of the situation in Nepal to the @IntlCrimCourt.

@antonioguterres@UNHumanRights The state killing of 14+ Gen Z protesters in Nepal is a horrific escalation. We demand IMMEDIATE action:
1. Deploy a special rapporteur to investigate these killings as potential extrajudicial executions.
2. Demand Nepal end the use of lethal force
