About Us

Who We Are

AHKF draws inspiration from the pioneering work of social scientist Akhter Hameed Khan, particularly his Orangi Pilot Project (OPP). Like OPP, which revolutionized sanitation in Karachi’s largest slum through community-led initiatives, AHKF UIL focuses on empowering communities in Dhok Hassu-Mangtal. We employ a research-driven approach, identifying local needs and piloting innovative solutions to address economic, health, and social barriers.

Our Mission

We are committed to empowering marginalized communities through grassroots initiatives, education, and economic development. Our mission is to create sustainable solutions that uplift lives and foster long-term self-sufficiency.

Our Vision

We envision a society where every individual has access to opportunities, resources, and support to lead a dignified life. Through collective efforts, we aim to build stronger, healthier, and self-reliant communities across Pakistan.
