After conducting 3 cycles, graduating 120 women, forming multiple local and international partnerships, and taking expert trainers on board, Herself is all set to take its vision of making women self-sustainable forward by launching a new and improved cycle this October.
Herself is Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB)’s women empowerment initiative which began in 2016. Since its inception, Herself has worked to build a developing mindset of Pakistani women to become independent and contribute in the economy. Many women like Seema Aziz, Founder SeFam and Bareeze, Masarrat Misbah, Founder Depilex SmileAgain Foundation and Selina Rashid, Founder Lotus PR have endorsed the initiative by appearing in several events hosted by Herself. The project has hosted numerous inspirational sessions, workshops, trainings, panel talks and a national level Women Convention called the Herself Women Convention (HWC).
Herself is also the first initiative to form a collaboration with Facebook’s women empowerment initiative #SheMeansBusiness to highlight Pakistani women on a global platform and provide them training on running businesses using Facebook.
