Meeting with The President of Pakistan

With time, the disability landscape in Pakistan has become brighter and more forth-right in recognizing citizens with disabilities as contributing members of the state. As proponents of this, the President of Pakistan, Mr. Arif Alvi and First Lady, Ms. Samina Alvi are engaged in dialogue with the Board of Directors at KDSP to discuss the future regarding the inclusion, equality and accessibility of opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome in Pakistan. Both parties met again in March 2021, continuing the conversations initiated in 2020.

KDSP has been striving for the integration of individuals with Down syndrome into mainstream society. In the days to come, the organization looks forward to working alongside the Federal Government as to making these plans a welcome reality.
