Teach For Pakistan (TFP) is a non-profit start-up committed to creating a powerful social movement for equity and excellence in education. We enable Pakistan’s best young talent to teach for two years in underserved communities, and drive systemic change in education throughout their lives. We envision the day when every child in Pakistan will participate in an education that nurtures them to become loving, thinking and engaged citizens.
TFP was piloted in partnership with a local foundation in Karachi and Lahore from 2011-2015 and has now launched as an independent organization headquartered in Islamabad. TFP’s 2018 Cohort is placed in the rural outskirts of Islamabad and recruitment for the 2019 Cohort has begun. TFP has recruited and supported over 102 excellent teachers and education leaders.
