Justice to NCHD

For the second time due to non availability of funds, the Pakistan Government wants to shut down NCHD (National Commission for Human Development), though the Federal Government has proposed that the provincial Governments can have possession of the organization, only Sind Government has adopted NCHD but Balochistan, Punjab and KPK Governments did not accept the adoption. The future of NCHD employees is once again in danger due to the cruel and non serious attitude of the leaders. More over the work that has been done in the field education and literacy will go wasted.

NCHDs mission is to support the government by filling the implementation gaps and improve public sector delivery mechanisms to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Education for All with focus on:
Goal 2: Achieve Universal Primary Education
Goal 3: Promote Gender Equality and empower women
Goal 4: Reduce Child Mortality
Goal 5: Improve Maternal Health
National Commission for Human Development is a not for profit organization with the mission to transform lives by improving access to basic education and healthcare in the countrys poorest communities. NCHD is the leading agency fighting illiteracy in 134 districts of Pakistan and helping people to find routes out of ignorance.
With nationwide network of 101 Human Development Support Units situated all over Pakistan and hands-on-experience, NCHD aims at enlarging the scale and scope of the efforts made by the government in ensuring the effective provision of social services. It perceives human development as a process of enlarging choices, building capacities and encouraging participation of communities at the grass roots. To ensure this, NCHD is directed towards supporting government line departments, civil society organizations and the local communities in the sectors of education, basic health care and income generating activities at the grassroots.
NCHD identifies, and consequently presents innovative and cost effective solutions to fill implementation gaps, building the capacities of the involved agencies and stakeholders to effectively address the issues hampering the process. Through extensive training programs and capacity building workshops which cater to all the stakeholders involved in the process, NCHD helps ensure a lasting impact. These capacity building exercises are targeted towards Government Line departments, community based organizations and the community.

It is time to join hands and protest against such abandonment towards NCHD that is working with utmost sincerity and dedication for the promotion of education and adult literacy in PAKISTAN. Lets force the Government to support NCHD continue its venture i.e. educating the illiterate.

NCHD's partners are:
