ISLAMABAD, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 16th Aug, 2018 ) :The Zalmi Foundation and the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) Thursday signed a 'Partnership Agreement' to work together towards the promotion of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The agreement was signed by the Chairman, Peshawar Zalmi and Zalmi Foundation, Javed Afridi and Director, a.i UNIC, Vlastimil Samek here at the United Nations Information Centre.
Afridi said that the foundation has been working for the past 3 years to promote sports and to empower youth in Pakistan, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
They have also been working towards promoting gender equality and women empowerment.
After partnership with UNIC, we hope to work even with more passion and dedication towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals in Pakistan, he said.
