The TODF focuses on engaging young people at levels of communities in critical dialogue on de-radicalisation, religious tolerance, and gender equality.
The project is aimed at mainstreaming and institutionalising the Pakistani youth and the Asian region to achieve greater recognition for their socio-political stakes, and achieve a greater engagement of young people in governance and citizen activism.
“It aims at creating the space for youth-led peaceful counter-narratives in the country.”
TODF is now looking to partner with similar local initiatives in Pakistan and launch youth dialogue clusters.
