What is CSED?
CSED is federally registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan as a nonprofit organization. We are tax-registered with Federal Board of Revenue. The Pakistan Center for Philanthropy has ratified us as a "credible organization."
We engage communities, rally for education, climate and water, promote dialogue, and assist building microenterprises in the Pakistani context(s).
Community Engagement
Come together.
We partner with communities and strengthen cooperation for shared goals of societal harmony.
Media and Democracy
Only way forward.
We engage with all forms of media and facilitate processes of social and democratic development.
Microenterprise Development
Micro is macro.
We build the professional and personal skills of youth, particularly women, for economic empowerment.
Dialogue, Culture, Cohesion
Understand each other.
We create platforms, connect people and assist them in appreciating Pakistan's present and historical diversity.
Who We Work With?
In addition to working with the local and international development partners, we consistently engage with professional and community organizations and their leaders on the four thematic areas mentioned above.
CSED's Board Members and the core Management Team include accomplished and experienced professionals. They carry solid international and regional social and development perspectives, which enables the organization to work with global and local stakeholders with ease and expertise. Although we have primarily worked with US and EU-based donors, we continue exploring opportunities to connect with corporate, public, and community-based organizations to benefit local communities.
