Establishing Community Centres in collaboration with Brot für die Welt

CSC has successfully established community resource centres to raise awareness on gender, women rights and social issues. There are 30 resource centres established in private and public schools in Tehsil Ferozwala and Sharakpur, district Sheikhupura with financial assistance from Brot für die Welt. These centres have provided platform for public to learn new things and enhance knowledge on subjects such as current affairs, science/technology, history and gender. CSC has provided books/IEC material, and furniture to create healthy environment for reading. It is a sustainable venture as these centers will have a material that will last and have impact on the youth of these areas.The importance of these centres became obvious during lockdown in the COVID-19 pandemic, as a number of young boys and girls have utilized these centres and picked up books to read in their quarantine time. It has developed reading habits among them and proved a useful initiative for the younger generation.
