ABSTRACT
Sexual and reproductive health problems affect the lives of women with disabilities in Nepal. Women with disabilities find it hard to assert their sexual and reproductive health and rights. Disability rights groups across Nepal submitted a report to the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and suggested specific recommendations on how the State of Nepal can guarantee the rights of women with disabilities in the country. Recommendations include ensuring effective implementation of the laws related to sexual violence and sexual harassment in Nepal, developing and implementing a comprehensive strategy to eliminate harmful practices and stereotypes that discriminate against women with disabilities, ensuring government institutions and offices include information and services that are accessible, ensuring proper training to actors in the justice system, ensuring the collection and publication of reliable data on violence against women with disabilities, and so on.
