KNOWLEDGE GENERATION
We conduct research, study and analyze laws, policies, and explore concepts and lived experiences around digital rights in Nepal and their impacts on the lives of marginalized folks.
Established in 2017, Body & Data works to enhance understanding and access to information on digital rights among women, queer people and marginalized groups where they are able to exercise their rights in a safe and just digital space. We work towards the vision of accessible, safe and just digital space for all, through cross movement building, facilitation for access to information, knowledge building and dissemination on digital rights in the context of Nepal
