EABL Project supported former Kamaiya and Haliya communities in revitalizing their agencies, from community to national level, brining them together with the Harwa-Charwa communities from Eastern Terai Nepal, in formation of the National level Joint Struggle Committee. The project was also able to support the former bonded labour communities to campaign, advocate, coordinate and collaborate with 3-tiers of government to develop and strengthen government systems resulting in development of Rehabilitation guidelines in Provincial and Palika level, data collection of thousands of unregistered Kamaiya and Haliya families and even building 22 houses in Kailai district by Sudurpaschim Government.
