Nepal
ICRI initiated its operations in Nepal in December 2001, aiding NGOs to create a plan for children with incarcerated parents. This led to the Network on Children, Prisoners, and Dependents (NCPD) formation in August 2002, and by 2003, ICRI opened an office in Kathmandu.

Emergency Health in Nepal
Identifying a critical need in Emergency Health, ICRI sent expert Amir Mashhour to evaluate Nepal's emergency health practices, leading to the Nepal Emergency Health Project (NEHP). This project aims to develop a network of emergency health posts and first responders, accessible online or via mobile, focusing on training, equipping, and responding to emergencies.
