Introduction
The Society for Safe Environment & Welfare

Societies Act of 1860 # 3316.
SSEWA-Pak has the distinction of being
amongst the first NGOs to be certified by
ISO 9001-2000 in Pakistan. We have acquired
membership of
HAP (Humanitarian
Accountability Partnership),
PCP (Pakistan Centre for
Philanthropy)
and also
applied for MICAH certification.
SSEWA-Pak has its established headquarters at
Rattanabad Mirpurkhas with field offices in
Pithoro (District Umerkot) and Roshanabad near
Naukot (District Mirpurkhas).
Presently SSEWA-Pak has a team of around 200
professional workers reaching out to more then 300
villages of the Lower Sindh region. The
geographical focus is on Districts
Mirpurkhas and Umerkot and limited interventions
in Districts Sanghar, Badin and Tandoalayar .
The vision of the
organisation is “Together for an empowered
community and peaceful environment in Pakistan”
and the mission of the organisation is “Mobilizing
communities for holistic empowerment in Pakistan”.
SSEWA-Pak follows an integrated rural community
development programme. The major programme
areas of the organisation are human &
institutional development, capacity building,
education, human rights & advocacy, health &
water/sanitation, livelihood development,
agriculture & environment and emergency relief and
rehabilitation. Each programme has a
coordinator and a professional team with office
space to function smoothly.
Core Values:
-
Human must protect and use natural
resources effectively.
-
We respect and value all segments of society
without prejudice to customs, tribe, creed,
language, religion and ethnicity.
-
We adhere to the norms of a society based on
democratic culture, where fundamental rights and
freedom can be fully realized for all.
-
We believe in an open and participative
organizational culture based on accountability
to all our stakeholders.
Our Team continues to serve rural
communities with vigor and zeal. Gradual changes are taking place within the
community that SSEWA-Pak is working. Illiterate people are now able to read and
write, communities that did not own a house have their own piece of land and
house, people who drank dirty water have clean drinking water and these changes
give us inspiration and hope to work with deprived communities
we at SSEWA-Pak appreciate the generous
contributions of our partners in empowering rural marginalized communities of
Pakistan. this continuous support has made it possible for us to initiate
different development programmes. its encouraging that our partners are with us
in the struggle to fight against poverty, illiteracy, gender disparity,
violation of human rights, and pollution of our environment. we are happy to say
that many lives have changed from misery to prosperity due to our joint
interventions. we pray that this joint struggle would continue until a just and
Peaceful society in in place.
