Good basic
education is a critical stepping stone for a country, such as Pakistan, working
to build a modern, market-based economy and to improve its people's lives.
Education especially for girls means more choices and more skills, higher wages
and higher living standards, and without it countries cannot compete in the
global economy. But education and training in Pakistan, despite recent economic
progress, lag behind other countries in the region, and the national literacy
rate is only 30 percent. In the situation PGGA is active in propping up
audacity in young girls to be the best citizen and to change the country with
our values.
PGGA is not only active in field of
education but also they are functioning in almost every ground of life as they
are working in helping million of girls to go to primary school and secondary
school. They are helping to prevent violence against women by arranging
awareness sessions and awareness programs which works to reduce violence. They
helping to prevent sexual violence against girls and women in conflict by
working with the UN and other
organizations to increase the ability of work for country. There have been
continuous strives for social service projects conducted by the guide
companies, through which the dual purpose of service and learning by doing
gets accomplished.
