Supporting Children’s Rights and Resilient Communities

Since 1978, KNH has been active in Pakistan, supporting children, young people and their families in difficult circumstances. Through local partner organisations, we stand up for children’s rights, promoting protection, participation and provision – so that every child can grow up with dignity and in a safe environment.

Our Focus of Work

Self-Help Groups & Empowerment

With our self-help group approach, women come together regularly to save money, build small businesses and support each other socially and economically. This strengthens families, improves living conditions and enables children to attend school, receive healthcare and grow up in a stable, supportive environment.

Child Rights and Advocacy

KNH Pakistan also engages in lobbying and advocacy for children’s rights — addressing violations and working for better protection, especially in vulnerable communities. Through these efforts, we aim to influence structures and policies so children in Pakistan can enjoy their rights fully.

Climate Action & Disaster-Management

Given the severe climate impacts in Pakistan, such as recurrent flood, our work includes disaster risk reduction, environmental education and climate-adapted farming. By building resilience in communities, we help safeguard children’s futures even in times of crisis.
