MESSAGE FROM COUNTRY DIRECTOR
Dear colleagues,
Welcome to Save the Children's second quarterly newsletter!
Working closely with the government is key to realising the goals set out in
our CSP; this edition of the newsletter features highlights from our work in
Lodhran where we introduced child focused health education, identification
cards for Lady Health Workers and inaugurated a trauma centre.
You will also find coverage of the Stolen Childhoods Report launched by Save
the Children on 1st June – International Children's Day. The report, the first in
an annual series, explores the major reasons why childhood comes to an early
end by focusing on a set of life changing events that signal the disruption of
childhood and ranking 172 countries based on where childhood is most intact
and where it is most eroded. Pakistan did not fare well in the report in terms of
the high number of malnourished infants and children and the number of
children of school going age who are not enrolled in formal schooling systems.
These facts are not news to us, but should act as an indicator of the direction
we should be headed in. Indeed our excellent track record, both in education
themed projects and our work with malnourished children and women, position
us well in this regard. We have also recently submitted a proposal for a project
focusing on out-of-school girls in Pakistan and are hopeful of a positive
outcome.
This edition of the newsletter also features two very interesting case studies
from Lodhran and Jacobabad. Both these stories represent milestones for Save
the Children Pakistan in the areas of gender equality, education for girls and
maternal and child health. Stories like these serve as constant reminders that
positive change is just around the corner, as long as we work diligently towards
our goals.
Happy reading!

COMMUNITY ORGANISATION
SAVES ALEENA FROM CHILD MARRIAGE
Abdul Qayyum
Aleena Atta, 14 years old, is a student of grade 7. She lives in a small house in Sharpur
village with five other family members. Her village is situated in the Union Council
Sumra of the Lodhran District, Punjab. Aleena's father passed away when she was very
young and her mother re-married. Aleena was engaged at the age of 13 and her fiancé's
family demanded that the marriage should take place a year later, to which her
stepfather agreed.
Aleena wanted to study – she couldn't imagine getting married at such an early
age, moving away from her family and giving up school. However, living in a deeply
patriarchal society, she couldn't dare oppose her step father's decision.
Besides, preparations for Aleena's wedding were already underway. Aleena found it very
hard to study and go about her everyday life – the life of a 13 year old girl.
The Improving the Lives of Children (ILC) project, run by Save the Children, focuses on
protecting children in the Lodhran District. In September 2015, Aleena's mother, Sughra
Bibi, joined a community organisation in her village, which was formed as part of the ILC
project. She also attended various training and awareness sessions, including one on
child marriages and their complications. She also learnt about the details of the Punjab
Marriage Restraint (Amendment) Act 2015.
On the basis of her new found knowledge, Aleena's mother reasoned with her husband
to postpone Aleena's marriage until she turns 18 and finishes high school. It took a while,
but she was able to convince him that child marriages are the cause of irreversible
damage and can harm more than one generation. Aleena's step-father discussed this
with Aleena's in-laws to be, and talked them into delaying the marriage. Finally, the two
families agreed to prolong the engagement until Aleena turned 18. Aleena has now
happily resumed her former life and attends school regularly. Aleena says:
Aleena on her way back from school
Lodhran: Abdul Qayyum / Save the Children
I was very worried about my future. Everywhere I
turned, there was talk of my wedding – even my friends
had started planning songs and dances for my
wedding. I am very happy now and I want to continue
my studies even after the 10th grade. There is no
female doctor in our village or in the nearby villages; I
want to become a doctor and work in my village so
that girls and women can get proper medical care.

QIT at Rahimabad's health centre
sets an example
Imran Ali Soomro
the improvement of health services at facility level, enhance
coordination and build each other's capacity. The QITs especially
focus on including women, people with disabilities and
adolescents to create an inclusive environment.
Before Save the Children's intervention, RHC Rahimabad was
barely functional. The staff wasn't enough and on most days, they
stayed absent. There were no separate wards or female doctor
for women. The local community had to travel a very long way to
access health services in nearby cities.

Shikarpur: Imran Ali Soomro / Save the Children
To provide better services to beneficiaries and patients within
limited resources, the Quality Improvement Team (QIT) at Rural
Health Centre (RHC) Rahimabad is playing a vital role. There are
eight QITs which were established under the Integrated
Maternal Newborn Child Health (IMNCH) project in districts
Shikarpur and Jacobabad in Sindh. RHC Rahimabad is one of
them.
QITs comprise of members of the community, health staff and
local authorities and the objective behind their creation is to
establish a common platform for health service providers and
local community where they could share the responsibilities for
The QIT for RHC Rahimabad was formed on 3rd September,
2016. Since then, the patients and local community have observed
visible changes as issues which the health staff and community
had been facing since long were resolved mutually through the
QIT's platform. With support from Save the Children, a Woman
Medical Officer (WMO) has been appointed. The maternity ward
is now operational with latest machinery and medicines, and an
ultrasound machine is also available now. The Out Patient
Department (OPD) has been made free at the facility and is now
open during evenings too. As a result, the daily attendance in the
OPD has risen from 150 to 250 patients.
Niaz Ahmed Sohandiro is a member of the RHC's QIT and also
works as a Polio Officer in Union Council Garhi Dakho for the
World Health Organisation. He says:
It gets very hot during summer in our area and there
was no facility to provide clean water to the patients and
visitors in RHC Rahimabad. After the QIT's formation,
the team pooled in resources to provide two water
coolers in the male and female sections. We have also
formed a committee to meet the expenses for ice, which
costs Rs.100 daily.”
Currently, there are 20 teams from 5 different areas
working under Niaz's supervision to create awareness
regarding better maternal and child healthcare,
including messages on interpersonal communication
and routine immunisation, in villages during polio
campaigns. The QIT is also in touch with different NGOs
to obtain financial support for the construction of the
facility's boundary wall.

GARHI HASSAN'S HEALTH FACILITY
WELCOMES FIRST DELIVERY IN FIVE YEARS
Fizza Bangash
through the provision of medical supplies, repair and
maintenance, and water and power solutions to support the
delivery of quality obstetric, newborn and child health services.
RHC Garhi Hassan was in shambles when Save the Children
started its operations there. It neither had the medical
equipment nor the staff required to care for pregnant mothers
and deliver babies. There was no delivery room, no female ward,
and very few medicines. Resultantly, women in Garhi Hassan
and nearby villages never got a chance to consult a doctor
during their pregnancies due to the associated medical and
logistical costs.
Fehmida's daughter was the first child delivered in RHC Garhi Hassan in 5 years
Jacobabad: Fizza Bangash / Save the Children 2017
37 years old Fehmida lives in village Garhi Hassan in Jacobabad
District, Sindh. At first glance, she comes across as an ordinary
woman from the village, but in fact she represents a unique
breakthrough for Save the Children's project on maternal and
child health in Sindh. Her daughter was the first child to be
delivered in Garhi Hassan's Rural Health Centre (RHC) in five
years.
Fehmida got married when she was only 15 to Ghulam Nabi
who is a year older than her. Together they have six children,
including three daughters and three sons. Fehmida gave birth to
all her children at home with the help of a midwife until her
deteriorating health forced her to see a doctor for her most
recent, pregnancy. Fehmida was experiencing severe nausea,
back ache, body ache and weakness. Ultimately, she went for
her first antenatal visit in the 7th month of the pregnancy to a
private clinic in Taluka Thul. The doctor charged PKR 1500 for
the check up and the ride to the clinic cost Fehmida an
additional PKR 200. She took the medicines the doctor
prescribed but they did not make any difference to her
condition. She consulted another private doctor in the city but
the doctor neither paid any attention to what she had to say
nor did the medicines he prescribed work on her.
Fortunately, a doctor Ghulam once visited for a check-up,
advised him to take Fehmida to the recently refurbished RHC in
Garhi Hassan. Save the Children's Integrated Maternal,
Newborn and Child Health (IMNCH) project started in Sindh in
2016. A major part of the Project was the refurbishment of 12
targeted health facilities in districts Jacobabad and Shikarpur
Fehmida first visited RHC Garhi Hassan in her 9th month. The
facility was just a 10 minutes' drive from her house. The doctor
performed a detailed check-up, gave her medication to manage
the pain and told her to come in two weeks on her due date.
Fehmida's baby was delivered normally without any
complications and both the mother and the baby were
discharged after being kept under observation for two hours.
They were also provided a date for a follow-up visit.
Unfortunately, Fehmida's daughter passed away two days after
her birth. She developed complications in her urethra due to
which she was unable to pass out urine. The health facility did
not have the necessary equipment or expertise to resolve this
issue, so Fehmida took her to a private clinic in Thul, but the
doctors could not do much and she passed away shortly after.
This incident has left Fehmida shook, but has also produced in
her a resolve to ensure that her remaining children get access
to quality healthcare, whenever needed. She received counselling
on birth spacing, quality nutrition for mother and kids and good
hygiene from a Lady Health Worker (LHW) at Garhi Hassan.
She has started taking pills and will soon be opting for a birth
spacing method for the long term. Her husband and mother in
law fully support her decision.
This experience has taught me a lot about proper
healthcare. During my check-ups, the doctor and staff
at Garhi Hassan answered all my questions and took
very good care of me. Everything was provided free of
charge. I wish I had come here earlier. Now I know that
to deliver and raise healthy children, it is important for
the mother to be health first, Fehmida adds.

ILC's Quality Improvement
Teams become part of
District's Health Councils
Farman Khan
According to a recent reform in Punjab's local government system, each District Health Department is legally bound to
create a health council at all Basic Health Unit (BHU) levels. The health council will serve as an independent body that will
oversee all the operational and development work of the concerned health facility through the funds allocated by the
government.
Save the Children in Pakistan saw this as an opportunity to engage its Quality Improvement Teams (QITs) under the
Improving the Lives of Children (ILC) project in Cotton Growing Districts of Pakistan. The project team held discussions
with District Lodhran's health department to include one member from each QIT in every concerned health council and
submitted a formal request to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Health, Lodhran. Based on Save the Children's work in the
district and the field team's excellent relationship with the local government, the Office of the CEO accepted the request.
This comes as big success for Save the Children as it has enabled the QIT's entry into the local body system that is
independent and influential. QIT members are already trained on various health issues and have the capacity to advocate
for Maternal and Child Health (MNCH) services at district level. Going forward, the ILC Project team plans to strengthen its
coordination with the health councils and increase their capacity to work on different health issues. This will help Save the
Children leave behind a sustainable system to advocate and resolve health issues after the Project ends.

Child Labour in Thar Desert - A source of
income or exploitation of children's rights?
Om Parkash Pragani

Tharparkar: Om Prakash Pragani / Save the Children
Poverty and child labour are intrinsically interlinked, at least in
Pakistan, and the existence of both is a persistent and an oft
ignored issue in the country. Tharparkar, commonly known as Thar,
is one of the 29 districts in the province of Sindh, situated in south
eastern Pakistan. It is one of the driest and hottest places in the
country, making it particularly hard for locals to grow food
through farming and cultivation. The area is fraught with famine
and drought, and sources of income are very limited. Such
conditions have given a rise to child labour in Thar.
The poverty and vulnerability of the local community in Thar force
them to use every means available to generate money, and
children are forced into labour at a very young age to support
their families. Moreover, the deeply rooted caste-system and social
inequality often push landless tenants and their families into
bonded labour.
The socio-economic indicators of bonded and marginalised
families depict a dismal scenario. As part of my MPhil, I authored a
research study titled "Child labour and poverty in District
Tharparkar" for which I surveyed children engaged in labour in
Thar. The study revealed that 94% of surveyed households have
working children, out of which around 75% were boys while the
remaining were girls. Out of these working children, 42% of
children work more than four hours a
day while 70% of them did not go to
school. The children also complained
of the harsh and hectic working
conditions. 80% of the surveyed
households were found to be under
heavy debt, and majority had taken
loans to meet their expenses. 43.5 %
of loans were taken to buy food, 15%
for medical treatments, 14% for
marriages or funeral arrangements
while 6.7% of loans were taken to
generate income through other
means and small businesses.
This data can be really useful in
researching this situation further,
while keeping in mind the following
recommendations.
While child labour is a crime according to law, there
needs to be more awareness raising in the community
regarding the law and the repercussions of breaking it.
Steps to abolish child labour should be supported with
provision of schools for children, marketing linkages for
local occupations and crafts by making communities the
owner of their businesses, thus preventing from external
exploitation
There is a need for consistent lobbying and advocacy to
minimise child labour in Thar particularly, and in Sindh
generally, by ensuring the proactive involvement of
district and provincial government authorities and other
decision makers.
Facilitate and sensitise the government to take steps to
get workers out of debt and bonded slavery through the
provision of funds and monitoring committees.
Easy micro-financing facilities should be made available
to those who are willing to start their own businesses.

Lodhran: Field staff / Save the Children
Child Focused Health Education (CFHE) is an initiative of Save
the Children which promotes children's participation in all health
promotion activities in school and at home. This methodology
develops critical thinking, problem solving and decision making
skills, communication and empathy in children.
Save the Children in implementing this intervention in 200
government primary schools of district Lodhran as part of IKEAfunded
project. 400 school teachers have been trained on CFHE
and they are conducting sessions for school children on weekly
basis. The CFHE curriculum includes the following 14 topics: clean
hands, safe drinking water, intestinal worms, dengue, malaria,
menstruation, hygiene management, cough and cold, diarrhea,
iodised salt, flies, clean teeth, eyesight, hearing, balanced diet.
The Project is being implemented in close coordination with the
district government and its sustainability is a major consideration
for all parties. For this purpose, the district government requested
the project team to train 43 School Health and Nutrition
Supervisors on CFHE methodology and now they will be
engaged in monitoring these sessions in 200 project targeted
schools and replicate the same in all other schools of the district.
Engaging these supervisors will ensure sustainability of CFHE
and will also help to scale up the project on a district level. The
district government has vowed to ensure that the school teachers
conduct the sessions on a weekly basis and raise awareness of
children on critical health issues.

SAVE THE CHILDREN LAUNCHES
STOLEN CHILDHOODS REPORT
Fizza Bangash
For at least 700 million children worldwide – and perhaps
hundreds of millions more – childhood has ended too soon. For
nearly a century, Save the Children has been fighting to save
children from poverty and discrimination. As a part of this effort,
Save the Children launched the End of Childhood Report 2017
titled 'Stolen Childhoods'– the first in an annual series – on June
1 on International Children's Day. The report shines a light on
the harsh realities faced by the most vulnerable and excluded
children and reveals that in many parts of the world, children
can hardly expect any childhood at all. The End of Childhood
Index explores the major reasons why childhood comes to an
early end by focusing on a set of life changing events that signal
the disruption of childhood. It ranks 172 countries based on
where childhood is most intact and where it is most eroded.

Artwork: Ihsan Ullah / Save the Children
Save the Children in Pakistan, in collaboration with Child Rights
Movement (CRM), organised a press conference for the report's
launch, which was attended by CRM members as well as
journalists from Dawn News, The Tribune, Capital TV, The News,
Duniya TV and Voice of Pakistan. A short session was organised
where CRM members discussed the background of the report
and the current situation of children in Pakistan, and distributed
the media toolkit for the launch, including a press release and a
copy of the report, among media representatives. The report
received online, print and broadcast coverage from several
newspapers and channels. Save the Children in Pakistan also ran
a social media campaign with CRM to engage audiences and
increase the reach of the report.
The report also sheds light on the dismal condition of children in
Pakistan. According to the End of Childhood Index, Pakistan
ranks 148 out of 172 countries. 10.7% of the world's stunted
children live in Pakistan while 45% of children in the country are
severely malnourished. Pakistan has an under-five mortality of
81 per 1,000 live births, whereby most children die of
preventable or treatable causes. 42.9% children in Pakistan of
primary and secondary school age are out of school. These
numbers highlight the many areas Pakistan is lacking in terms of
protecting its children and providing them a healthy childhood.

requested them to print cards with logos of the District Health
Department, Save the Children, DevCon and CHAON. Save the
Children printed a total of 1300 cards for LHWs and LHSs of
District Shaheed Benazirabad and handed these over to the
District Health Department for distribution.
