Initiatives of SEED Pakistan
SEED Pakistan aims to carry out its mission through three distinct but interrelated arms of operation. These arms are known as SEED EDU, SEED TECH, and SEED CARE. Each arm has a specific focus and a dedicated team working towards achieving our goals.
SEED EDU focuses on addressing problems of primary and secondary education. The main strategy employed is to legally adopt under-performing, under-staffed, under-resourced government schools which are usually in very poor physical condition. These schools then are renovated to provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment conducive to learning for students. In the next stage staffing, education materials, as well as teaching methods and practices are all improved to make a major positive impact of on children’s learning. Students are never charged fees for the services SEED Pakistan provides.
SEED TECH focuses on providing technical education and vocational training to youths from underprivileged backgrounds. This aim is achieved by running training courses in a variety of fields or trades. Trades are selected based on multiple criteria including interest among applicants, market demand, and employment prospects among many others.
SEED CARE focuses on providing safe and clean drinking water to students as well as to members of underprivileged communities who do not have access to water. We intend to realize this aim by installing heavy duty Reverse Osmosis water filtration plants in selected areas. Residents of those areas will then be required to sign up for a set volume of water for their consumption on a daily basis.
