Aahung

Aahung Aahung is a Karachi-based non-profit organization

Aahung was founded in 1995 by a group of individuals, to facilitate the implementation of two community based projects, Karachi Reproductive Health Project (KRHP-1994) and AIDS Awareness Program (AAP- 1997). The projects aimed to improve the sexual health status of women and adolescents in four low-income urban communities, and reduce their vulnerability to HIV/AIDS.

A quiet child isn’t always a safe child.
Sometimes, they just don’t know how to speak
up or who will listen.

Aahung & RTP are building awareness around
creating safer, more responsive spaces for
children. Let’s start by listening.

The government of Pakistan proposes exemption of tax on menstrual products. While this proposal is a positive step, real change depends on implementation. Menstrual justice goes beyond affordability - it requires equitable access and recognition of menstrual health as a basic right.

Change doesn't happen by accident. It happens when young people are given the tools, the space, and the permission to imagine something different.

In Pakistan, UN Girls' Education Initiative is partnering with UNICEF Pakistan and Aahung to reach over 17,000 adolescents aged 10–14 across 70 schools in Sindh — through a first-of-its-kind Life Skills Based Education approach that uses play-based curriculum to challenge gender norms in the classroom.

This isn't just an education programme. It's a shift in how young people see themselves, each other, and the world around them.
And it doesn't stop at the school gate. With the full support of the Sindh Education and Literacy Department, this approach is embedded in the system — making sure change is lasting, not just local.

When adolescents learn to question unequal gender dynamics early, they carry that thinking forward — into their relationships, their communities, and their futures.

Share this post if you believe every young person deserves an education free from harmful gender norms. 💜

When we teach children that their voice matters,
we give them something powerful- the ability to
speak up.
