Women Skill Center at Kila Saifullah
Taaleem Foundation establishes a skill center for women at Kila Saifullah in Balochistan with 65 girls enrolled within one month of its inception. The centuries old patriarchal system in Balochistan confined the lives of the women to their houses; thus pushing this equally able human resource to the clutches of illiteracy. So, for these women limited to their houses, this skill center is a forward-looking initiative for social development and women empowerment. Through this project the women of the area will be trained in indigenous traditional trades, which will enable them to earn bread and butter for themselves and add to their families’ financial cash flow. This will further raise the element of professionalism in Kila Saifullah district – bordering Afghanistan – where human development index is otherwise very low.
