Aurat Publication & Information Services Trust Foundation

Aurat Foundation/AF is a national, non-profit, non-governmental organization, headquartered in Islam

Our head office is in Islamabad, five regional offices in the provincial capitals in Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar, Quetta and Gilgit, and 37 Field Offices in the provinces. We also have a countrywide network of voluntary citizens' groups including Citizens Action Committees (CACs), Resource Groups and Resource Centres (AF-RCs) and Information Network Centres (INCs) as well as individual activists in

128 districts. Our main goals are:
(1) To enable women to acquire greater access to knowledge, resources and institutions;
(2) To influence attitudes and behaviour for a social environment responsive to women's concerns and people-centred issues;
(3) To facilitate citizens' active participation in the process of social change and governance at all levels. In pursuit of these goals, Aurat Foundation has played a role in almost all pro-women legislation passed in the country in recent years including laws on honor killing, domestic violence, sexual harassment, child marriage, and amendments to the Hudood Ordinances among others.
