2025 award recipient
LAHURNIP
30 years ago a group of Indigenous lawyers in Nepal founded LAHURNIP, and since then the organization has worked with grassroots Indigenous communities in Nepal to defend their human rights, and to seek justice and remedies for those harmed by corporate and government activities. The lands, resources and livelihoods of Indigenous Peoples are disproportionately affected by business and government actions. LAHURNIP offers legal aid, strategic litigation, and advocacy to Indigenous and local communities, particularly those impacted by large-scale development projects.
