VAM supports the initiative taken by Women for Water and Gender Concerns to specifically collect funds to support the women and girls in Pakistan.
Of course it is great that the development cooperation organisations in the Netherlands and elsewhere are supporting Pakistan and collecting funds for that. Again though, the women are the last to get dedicated funds to do their work - altough experience in Surinam and Sri Lanka has shown that they are very effective and have "an eye" for the specific needs of women.
Thats why we urge everybody to support the "people to people" campaign directly; we will assist were we can with our expertise.
