🕊️ Invest in Peace - For Everyone, Everywhere, Every Day.

Peace begins at the grassroots, in the spaces where communities come together, build trust, and take collective action.

Through Bargad’s Local Peace Structures (LPS), community members from different faiths and backgrounds are working together to turn this vision into action. From celebrating Eid Milad-un-Nabi ﷺ together, to planting indigenous trees and forming community-led park committees, to establishing Green Sabeels during Muharram, these initiatives show how inclusion, interfaith solidarity, and shared responsibility can create stronger communities.

This International Day of Peace, we celebrate the people investing in peace — not just as an idea, but as something we build together, every day 🤝🌱

🌟 Volunteer of the Month: Rana Ahsan 🌟

Meet Rana Ahsan, a Sociology student at GCU Lahore and a dedicated youth volunteer who has been associated with Bargad for the past four years.

From participating in youth development initiatives and peacebuilding trainings to contributing to a Social Action Project focused on persons with disabilities, Ahsan’s journey reflects learning through action, inclusive leadership, and community engagement 💚

As a person with a disability himself, Ahsan has also found in Bargad a space where he has been encouraged to participate, lead, and express himself with confidence, while strengthening his skills in advocacy, communication, peacebuilding, and social action.

We’re proud to celebrate his journey and his continued commitment to creating positive change in his community 🌱

Today, key voices came together in Lahore to discuss building a stronger ecosystem for youth mental health and wellbeing in Pakistan đź§ 

The Provincial Punjab Stakeholder Dialogue brought together government representatives, community leaders, youth advocacy champions, and other stakeholders for meaningful conversations around the challenges facing young people and the need for stronger, more responsive mental health support.

Youth advocacy champions also presented their advocacy plans, exchanged ideas with stakeholders, and received valuable feedback on turning their plans into meaningful action.

The dialogue was an important step towards moving from conversation to commitment, strengthening collaboration and creating concrete pathways for change in youth mental health.

What we share online matters, especially when the conversation is about su***de.

In moments of tragedy, it can be easy to repost without thinking, speculate about what happened, or share details that should remain private. But awareness should never come at the cost of someone’s dignity or safety.

This Su***de Prevention Week, let’s use our platforms responsibly: avoid sensationalising su***de, don’t share harmful details, challenge stigma, and use social media to connect people with reliable information and support.

Because sometimes, what we choose not to share matters just as much as what we do.

The way we talk about su***de matters.

Words like “attention-seeking,” “be stronger,” or “think about your family” can dismiss someone’s pain and make it harder for them to ask for help.

Instead, let’s listen without judgement. Let’s take signs of distress seriously. Let’s ask the difficult questions, offer compassion, and encourage appropriate support when someone is struggling.

This Su***de Prevention Week, let’s change the language, change the conversation, and create spaces where people feel safe enough to speak.

Mental health support should never feel out of reach đź’™

If you or someone you know is going through a difficult time, you don’t have to face it alone.

This Su***de Prevention Week, let’s create a culture where asking for help is met with compassion, not judgement. Whether it’s a trusted person, a counsellor, or a professional support service, starting the conversation can make a difference.

Save this post, share it with someone who may need it, and help make mental-health support easier to find đź«‚

You matter. Your life matters. Help is available.
