DIL began working with the Naz Old Boys Welfare Association (NOWA) in 2001, making this one of DIL’s longest-running projects. The DIL-NOWA schools have provided rich experience for other project partners to learn from.
Khairpur, a land of meticulously lined date palms and vast cotton fields, is situated 450 km north of Karachi and shares a border with India to its east. In the rural areas, only 53% of children attend primary school and only 48% of children older than 10 are literate. The average literacy rate for males is 65% and only 25% for females.
