🔹 About Us:
We are the Pakistan Independent Living Centre-Network, a dedicated group of advocates inspired by the Independent Living philosop

hy and movement. Our mission is to champion the rights and aspirations of people with disabilities (PwDs) in Pakistan. We are committed to fostering self-determination, equal opportunities, and self-respect for PwDs while challenging societal norms and dismantling barriers that hinder their progress.

🔹 Independent Living Philosophy:
At PILC-Network, we believe that Independent Living is not about doing everything alone; it's about ensuring that PwDs have the same choices and control in their lives as anyone else. PwDs deserve the chance to grow up with their families, attend neighborhood schools, use public transportation, pursue careers that align with their education and interests, and build their own families. This philosophy is the cornerstone of our advocacy work.

🔹 Empowering PwDs:
We firmly believe that PwDs are the foremost experts on their own needs. To effect change, we must actively involve PwDs in shaping the solutions they want, enabling them to take charge of their lives and ensuring they have the right to express their thoughts and desires just like anyone else.

🔹 Community and Collaboration:
Building a supportive community is central to our mission. By learning from one another, organizing ourselves, and working collectively, we can drive meaningful change. Together, we can advocate for legal protections that safeguard the human and civil rights of PwDs in Pakistan.

🔹 Get Involved:
Join us on this transformative journey toward a more inclusive and accessible Pakistan for all. Let's work together to create a society where PwDs can thrive and contribute fully, without limitations. Connect with us to stay updated on our advocacy efforts, disability rights initiatives, and opportunities to make a positive impact in the lives of PwDs.

Let's be the change we want to see in Pakistan and the world! 🌍✨

Empowering Mobility, Enhancing Independence

The Pakistan Independent Living Centre (PILC) and the Disabled Welfare Association (DWA), in collaboration with the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPD), Government of Sindh, successfully organized an Assistive Devices Distribution Ceremony at the Arts Council Karachi.

Under the leadership of Mr. Jawaid Rais, Founder of DWA–PILC, and Ms. Saima Ali, President DWA, the initiative provided vital support to a large number of persons with disabilities (OPDs) through the distribution of more than 100 assistive devices, including manual and electric wheelchairs, smart wheelchairs, motorized tricycles, scooties, laptops, and educational materials—strengthening mobility, independence, and access to education.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the distinguished guests including Mr. Tauha Ahmed Farooqui (Secretary, DEPD Sindh), Mr. Salman Abdullah Murad (Deputy Mayor Karachi), Mr. Mohammad Ahmed Shah (Chairman, Arts Council Karachi), Mr. Aitabar Ali (Additional Secretary, DEPD), and Ms. Ratna Dewan (Deputy Director, SPDPA) for their valued presence and continued support in promoting inclusion and empowerment of persons with disabilities.

We also deeply appreciate the participation of partner NGOs and OPD organizations, who received assistive devices on behalf of their communities, helping ensure these resources reach those most in need.

A heartfelt thank you to all partners, supporters, volunteers, and contributors whose dedication made this impactful initiative a success. Together, we move forward toward a more inclusive, accessible, and empowered society for all.
