Under the project Jamhooriat aur Baikhtiar Aurat (JAZBA), SAP-PK and AF have formed local chapters as Women Voter Networks (WVNs) in 25 districts across five regions. These WVNs were formed on the footprints of Awaz-e-Niswan (AAN) methodology for chapter formation. To support replication of AAN model, AAN conducted two ToTs for Local Resource Persons (LRPs) from 25 districts in 2020, where AAN methodology and future action plan were discussed. Each LRP was tasked to form WVNs in their respective districts by replicating the AAN methodology.
In 2021, AAN team planned to visit Women Voter Networks in 15 districts to see how the AAN methodology has been replicated, assess the effectiveness of the training, and interact with the local members. However, these visits got postponed to 2022 due to COVID-related restrictions imposed by the Government.
Technical visits were rescheduled for March, 2022 and out of 15 planned, six districts were visited in coordination with SAP-PK and AF. Remaining districts that could not be visited due to planning and coordination challenges.
