About US
Participatory Village Development Programme (PVDP) started its development journey from District Tharparkar in 1997. Mr. Dominic Stephen, founder of PVDP, realized the gravity of the situation and the complex socio-psycho and economic problems of Thari communities and established PVDP in 1997. PVDP was registered on 15th June 1998 under the Societies Registration Act 1860 in Hyderabad. The organization was formed with a mission to support the poor and disadvantaged communities in improving the qualities of their lives, through encouraging people to organize and mobilize themselves for holistic social change.

Under the "Humanitarian Assistance for Flood-Affected Households" project, the Participatory Village Development Program (PVDP) Sindh distributed 45 toolkits to vocational skill trainees from 20 targeted villages in Taluka Jhuddo, District Mirpurkhas, Sindh. The recipients included 15 women trained in tailoring/stitching, 15 men trained in motorcycle mechanics, and 15 men trained in solar and electric repairs. These trainees had completed a three-month training program conducted by the Shahbaz Communicator Institute, Jhuddo, equipping them with essential skills to enhance their livelihoods.
The distributed toolkits included:
15 Tailoring/Stitching Toolkits
15 Motorcycle Repairing Mechanic Toolkits
15 Solar & Electric Repairing Toolkits
This initiative, funded by Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe (DKH) and implemented by PVDP Sindh , aims to support flood-affected households in earning a sustainable livelihood. By providing essential tools for vocational skills, the project empowers local communities, enabling them to generate income and support their families. Representatives from DKH Country Office, including Mr. Aftab Johnson (Program Officer) and Ms. Sidra Shahbaz (Admin Officer), visited the distribution point to oversee the successful delivery of the relief efforts.
The overarching goal of the project is to foster self-reliance among the affected households, helping them recover from the impacts of the floods and build a more resilient future.

🌍 "Cool the Earth" Initiative Launched by PVDP Sindh 🌱
Karachi, November 14, 2024: Today, the Participatory Village Development Programme (PVDP) Sindh launched the "Cool the Earth" initiative at the Pearl Continental Hotel, Karachi. This community-focused program is designed to address climate change with an ambitious plan for large-scale tree planting across Sindh, particularly in Tharparkar.
The "Cool the Earth" initiative brings together citizens, corporations, and communities to plant and care for 1 million trees over the next two years. With support from the Government of Sindh, corporate partners, and technical institutions, the program aims to make a lasting impact on the environment. Experts at the launch, including Dr. Attaullah Khan from AZRC, Dr. Zakir Hussain Dahri from PARC, Mr. Favad Soomro of ENGRO Foundation, and Mr. Naeem Qureshi from NFEH, shared valuable insights into climate resilience, sustainable agriculture, and the essential role of community-led action.
This program empowers communities through training and resources for sustainable tree planting and maintenance, while industry partnerships, like that with Engro, emphasize the role of corporate support in creating a sustainable future. By increasing green cover, "Cool the Earth" aims to mitigate climate change, reduce pollution, and support biodiversity.
The event wrapped up with an interactive Q&A session on the initiative's goals and impact. PVDP Sindh is dedicated to a greener, healthier Pakistan and looks forward to collaboration with communities, government agencies, and private sector partners to achieve this vision.
🌱 Join us in the "Cool the Earth" journey to create a sustainable legacy for future generations! #CoolTheEarth #ClimateAction #PVDPSindh #TreePlantation #GreenPakistan
