According to a report 63% of Pakistan’s population lives in rural areas and most of the people do not have access to education, internet or smart devices thus their exposure is extremely limited. In order to make them aware about the situation it is important that the communication around the disease is simple and in native languages.

It embodies the spirit of public-private partnership to address the multi-dimensional issues of poverty with a view to achieving social and economic change.
