DIL started working in this densely populated district of Karachi in 2001. Orangi has become the largest slum in South Asia.
In this area, poverty is rampant, roads are practically non-existent and the sewage spills out over garbage-littered streets. The district’s various ethnic groups live in separate enclaves and the schools often reflect this division. Many students have to work after school to help support their families.
Due to DIL’s direct management, the Orangi Schools have quickly become models for other projects.
