Burns Violence Survivors-Nepal (BVS-Nepal) was set up in 2009 subsequent to the passing of The Domestic Violence and Punishment Act 2009, and to meet the growing demand for the proper treatment of burn victims. The Ministry of Women, Children and Social Welfare of Nepal also decided to set up service centres in 15 districts of the country. The centres would be established in such places where the number of incidents of domestic violence against women is high and the government’s presence is poor. The centres will provide victims with security, treatment, and rehabilitation, as well as such services as legal aid and psychological counselling. Vision: The vision of BVS-Nepal is the elimination of burns violence in Nepal while supporting and rehabilitating survivors to lead healthy and rewarding lives. Mission: The mission of BVS-Nepal is to support and help survivors of burns violence and to help prevent the occurrence of burns violence through a network of partnerships. Strategy: BVS-Nepal is dedicated to rehabilitating survivors of burns violence with an integrated/ holistic approach, while working to prevent the occurrence of burns violence in Nepal.
