Transforming Lives: Pakistan’s Socio-Economic Development Programme

The film, Transforming Lives, is about Immit and Yarkhun Lasht, two remotest valleys in the mountainous regions of Pakistan. It exemplifies the challenges, inhabitants of these communities face and the efforts of Imamat Institutions that strive to improve the Quality of Life through the Socio-Economic Development Programme (SEDP). The SEDP is an initiative of the Ismaili Council for Pakistan, whose aim is to uplift the marginalised communities from the vicious generational cycle of poverty and improve their overall socio-economic status by addressing issues around food and nutrition, health, education, youth development, income, and habitat.
