Can understanding be built without sharing a language? In a recent UK session, a 4-year-old led her own play through actions and repetition. By following her lead, we saw confidence and agency grow. Sometimes, the most important thing a child builds is belief in herself.

In Karachi, our Bulbulon ka Science session turned curiosity into joy. With @itacecorg at Sanjha Vehra, children explored bubbles by making, chasing, and questioning them. It wasn’t about right answers, but about confidence, curiosity, and shared discovery through play.

Growth is a two-way street. In a recent coaching reflection, Bari Saathi Abrish shared how she has grown as a leader by creating spaces where even the quietest children feel confident to engage. Her journey shows how mentorship builds confidence in everyone involved.

Last week in Karachi, we launched a new phase of Seekho Sikhao Sakhi with a canvas painting and reflection session for our Bari Saathis. Through art and dialogue, senior mentors explored identity, communication, and empathy, showing how mentorship helps girls grow into leaders.

Children tell us what they need if we listen. In our work with @almustafa_trust, girls drew what makes them feel safe, happy, or free, from being with their mothers to dancing in the rain to standing quietly among flowers. Their words remind us why the Right to Childhood matters.

One year ago, over 100 governments at the Global Ministerial Conference in Bogotá pledged to end violence against children. In Pakistan, this vision lives through Maar Nahi Pyaar, our call to replace punishment with compassion and fear with understanding. #RightToFeelSafe

“I drew clouds because I like clouds a lot, and I really like being a Big Partner.” For children once out of school, learning again can feel like sunlight after rain. Through peer-led models, we see how care and connection help every child catch up and thrive.
