Kathmandu (Pahichan) November 20 – U.S. Mission organized an event to foster strong partnerships to promote ethical and fair recruitment practices in the foreign employment process for Nepali people.\u00a0 Key representatives from the Government of Nepal, private sector, civil society, development organizations, and media attended the event, which was jointly hosted by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the National Business Initiative.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event, U.S. Ambassador to Nepal Randy W. Berry said, \u201cThe United States Government, through USAID and other partners, stands committed to support the country\u2019s leadership in finding those win-win solutions that serve everyone: the government, the private sector, and the Nepali people.\u00a0 Collectively, I\u2019m confident that we can make ethical recruitment happen and, in turn, protect and promote the socio-economic wellbeing of the people and businesses in Nepal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Minister of Ministry of Labor, Employment, and Social Security, Gokarna Bista, highlighted the Government\u2019s priorities and plans and reiterated his commitment to ensuring good governance and oversight of foreign recruitment practices.\u00a0 Padma Jyoti, President of NBI, also underscored the need to institutionalize responsible and ethical recruitment processes in Nepal.<\/p>\n

Migration contributes to nearly 25 percent of Nepal\u2019s gross domestic product.\u00a0 In fact, over half of all Nepali households have at least one migrant family member abroad or living in Nepal as a returnee.<\/p>\n

USAID\u2019s Hamro Samman Project, implemented by Winrock International, builds upon more than two decades of U.S. Government support to counter human trafficking in Nepal.\u00a0 The project\u2019s goal is to reduce the prevalence of trafficking in persons by strengthening existing government, civil society, and private sector policies and systems.<\/p>\n

Specifically, to counter trafficking and exploitation in foreign labor migration, Hamro Samman is forging partnerships with private sector actors to promote ethical recruitment and encourage zero tolerance for exploitation in accordance with national laws and policies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
