SEEP also works in collaboration with like-minded groups and organizations towards the enactment and reformation of policy and laws, and their proper implementation at local and national level, in order to ensure the rights of children on the basis of UNCRC.
We visit these amazing and inspiring girls at SEEP on Fridays to dance, play games, and promote creativity through art. We help to organize trips, and raised funding for each girl to design her very own and one of a kind salwar kameez.
