Social Organizer

SECOURS ISLAMIQUE FRANCE (SIF) is an international non-governmental organization dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance and development aid worldwide. Since 1991, SIF has been working across more than 20 countries.

In Pakistan, we have been actively serving vulnerable communities and marginalized groups since 2010 by providing them humanitarian assistance during emergencies and supporting them through the implementation of sustainable development programs in the areas of Child Protection and Child Wellbeing, WASH, Food Security and Livelihoods, Disaster Risk Reduction, and Education during both early recovery and development phases.

SIF is currently providing its services in all provinces of Pakistan, including Sindh, Punjab, Baluchistan, KPK, and has a presence in 33 of the most vulnerable districts. In light of increasing challenges such as inflation, illiteracy, poverty, and climate change, as well as their association with limited and shrinking resources like water, food, and livelihood opportunities, SIF believes that there is a high need for enhanced collaboration between NGOs and government institutions. SIF is fully confident that by sharing experiences, innovations, and lessons learned under such coordination, we can collectively improve the well-being of children and alleviate the miseries of the communities across Pakistan.
