Please click here to file a petition against this gross violation
Dear Nepali Community,
One of the missions of Nepalese Association in Southeast America (NASeA) is to advocate for human rights and yet, in front of our own eyes we witness not only a gross violation of human rights but a modern day slavery that our Nepali sisters are suffering in several households in Lebanon, a middle east country, where they have come as migrant worker to earn wage for their families back home.
Here is a tragic incidence of our Nepali sister Lila Acharya who was allegedly killed following abuse and servitudes in Beirut, Lebanon.

https://www.simbarusseau.com/nepalese-migrant-domestic-worker-lila-lebanon/
NASeA is doing a petition drive from all like-minded organizations and individuals to send a strong message to the following authorities and agencies urging them to take immediate and adequate measures not only to safeguards the rights of migrant workers in Lebanon (and elsewhere in the middle east countries for that matter), to provide a safe, abuse-free work environment but also to bring the abusers, violators/ culprits to justice.
NASeA strongly requests
Government of Lebanon: to bring strong laws, acts and statutes that protect the lives of migrant workers and that penalize household employers who abuse migrant workers. NASeA also urges to conduct a thorough investigation of the above tragic incidence to bring the concerned to justice.
United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNCHR): to monitor and track violations of human rights that occur in households that hire migrant workers in Lebanon or other country and hold the country accountable for such act.
Government of Nepal to strongly regulate foreign employment companies in Nepal to adequately safeguard the rights of migrant worker and begin an impactful dialogue with the country where incidences of human rights violations of Nepali workers are occurring.
United Nations: to remind each country that is a signatory of Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) that it should safeguard the human rights of the people that reside in the country and to urge other countries who not yet signed the declaration to sign.
On behalf of NASeA and all other who are concerned with this tragic incidence and all who wish that each Nepali migrant worker get a safe and abuse-free work environment where their human rights is fully ensured,

| Donations for Sarita DC. |
| Dear friends,
Please help this innocent 11 year girl, Sarita D.C., in Nepal and who has fallen victim of the rare but dangerous disease called ITP (Immune Thrombocytic Purpura) in which her blood system does not produce enough plateletes to effectively counter bleeding. “Without enough platelets, bleeding can occur inside the body (internal bleeding) or underneath or from the skin (external bleeding).” Read more about ITP in this website. https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/health-topics/topics/itp/
Many Nepalese, individually or organizationally, have come forward to assist Sarita in Nepal financially and morally. Here are videos and links that tells about the girl and her condition.
NASeA advisor in Nepal Goverdhan Shrestha spoke to Sarita’s mother in Nepal who explained that she needs blood transfusion every two week to replenish the amount of platelets in her body. She would require around 30,000 NRs at every session of transfusion. To meet her immediate financial needs for the transfusion, NASeA is raising funds via online donation. NASeA requests you all to donate any amount that you could to help the girl live. For the long term, NASeA is talking with other organizations if sustainable treatment could be sought for her.
Thank you,
Sanjeeb Sapkota
President, NASeA |
