In Nepal, the Collective Campaign for Peace (COCAP) Western Region Focal Point has begun producing and airing its own radio program on Baglung FM every Sunday titled "Constituent Assembly and Human Rights" in order to raise awareness about the upcoming elections. In collaboration with Baglung FM, COCAP member organizations, and other institutions working in the field of human rights, a 30-minute program will air every Sunday at 7:30 a.m. The program reaches more than 100,000 people in nine districts, including Baglung, Myagdi, Parbat and Mustang. The goal is to educate disadvantaged groups (DAGs) such as remote villagers, Dalits, females and Janajatis (ethnic caste groups) about the upcoming Constituent Assembly (CA) elections.
