Appeal Committee

Amnesty Nepal has a diverse membership under different structures viz. Groups, Youth Networks and Supporter Members. The membership is required to comply with Amnesty’s core values, principles, standards as well as processes commonly agreed both at the Section level and at the international level. The statute of Amnesty Nepal has vested the power to the NB to derecognize groups, youth networks and members by following due processes if the membership entity is consistently found to have violated the basic Amnesty standards and values. In the event NB takes such an action, Groups, Youth Networks and individual members can appeal to the Appeal Committee against such decision of the NB provided they are not satisfied with the decision. The Appeal Committee enjoys the right to alter the NB’s decision, if upon inquiry, it deems that the decision was incorrect or taken on unfair grounds. The decision of the Appeal Committee will be final and binding. The Committee is made up of a Coordinator and two Members who are elected by the General Meeting for a two year term. The current Appeal Committee is as below:
