About Indus Resource Centre

Established in 1999 as a non-governmental organization, registered under Societies Act 1860, Indus Resource Centre (IRC) has come a long way to become a key player in providing sustainable and replicable models for integrated social and economic development in Sindh, Pakistan. IRC believes in equality of human beings; opportunity for all; human potential; dignity of labour and judicious use of resources. IRC has grown from a volunteer based small initiative in 2000 to an effective organization with over 1000 employees in 2017. IRC has also increased its geographic outreach from its field operations in Khairpur and Dadu in 2000 to a total of 9 districts (Jamshoro, Karachi Coastal belt, Kambar-Shahdadkot, Larkana, Shikarpur, Sukkur, Khairpur, Dadu and Ghotki) in Sindh by 2016. However, the major transformation has been in the thematic areas and special projects, so from an initial focus on girls’ education and capacity building of Community Based Organizations (CBOs) to current four thematic areas which include: Governance, Democracy and Human Rights; Education and Literacy (where primary focus still remains on girls education); Sustainable Livelihoods; and Disaster Preparedness and Response with cross cutting themes of environmental sensitivity, respect for human rights and gender equality. Under these four pillars, IRC strives to achieve the following 5 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG): - SDG #1 No Poverty - SDG #4 Quality Education - SDG #5 Gender Equality - SDG #10 Reduced Inequalities - SDG #16 Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions IRC’s mission is to “Mainstream the marginalized through various approaches to human and institutional development”.
