I had the pleasure to meet Urvashi at AVPN Conference that was recently held in Singapore. As Director of TrustLaw program, Urvashi is leading the efforts of Thomson Reuters Foundation in expanding all over the region TrustLaw, an innovative Pro Bono program that connects NGOs of the region with leading law firms. By offering free of cost, voluntary service, law firms can offer essential and key services to the not for profit sector. A link is therefore created between NGOs and law firms.

Can a small, simple no budget initiative revitalize the debate on Corporate Social Responsibility in Nepal? Indeed having a loose platform to share best practices and create new knowledge could be the best way to advance the discussions on CSR in the country

I killed my first wife, stoned Pakistani woman's husband says

It is so very difficult for me to comprehend how a father, brothers and other relatives can kill a member of their family for no other reason than a woman has brought shame on her family.  The recent murder of a young pregnant Pakastani woman by her family has left most of us outraged, wondering how any kind of law supports killilng.  How could a parent murder their child?  It is beyond the realm of sanity.

What we need is a political agenda for a new South Asia. Let allow regional integration bridge the gaps among nations for a common prosperity and well being of all citizens of South Asia. Can Modi show his vigor and determination in adding a new dimension to the process of regional integration?
