How are we helping Pakistan?
IDRF has a history of working in Pakistan for over 30 years through our local partners. In 1994, we established our own offices in Pakistan, registering as a charity to provide more oversight and accountability to our partners.
Emergency
IDRF is working to provide sustainable assistance for crisis relief in Pakistan. In response to devastating floods, IDRF provided emergency relief kits to affected families, and is now rebuilding critical infrastructure to address the long-term impact on housing and agriculture.
In Pakistan, nearly 40 million people don’t get enough nutrients on a daily basis. To address food insecurity in Pakistan, our team is also providing deserving individuals with a monthly source of food items and hot meals.
Despite education being a fundamental right, the education sector in Pakistan faces significant challenges with financial constraints leading to 2.8 million children between the ages of 5 and 16 out of school. In response, IDRF has taken steps to address this issue by establishing education projects for children that provide access to high-quality education and enriched extracurricular activities, helping to ensure a brighter future for Pakistani children.Through our initiatives, we’re making a significant impact in empowering young people to lead change and achieve their full potential.
The healthcare sector in Pakistan is also facing enormous challenges, with services often failing to support the unique needs of women and girls. To address this pressing need, IDRF is providing quality training to women in the Tharparkar region to become midwives in their communities. This initiative aims to reduce the high number of maternal and newborn deaths, while also empowering women to make informed decisions about their health.
