At Initiative for Social Development Foundation [ISD], we envision a world where women and children, regardless of their circumstances, have access to quality healthcare, education, and opportunities for growth. We are committed to empowering underserved communities by focusing on women’s healthcare, child welfare, and social equity. Through innovative programs, advocacy, and education, our mission is to create lasting change by addressing the systemic challenges that perpetuate poverty, inequality, and social injustice.

Our Story

ISDF was founded in 1977 with a commitment to making a meaningful impact on the lives of the marginalized. Over the years, we have grown from a small initiative to a thriving organization working in partnership with communities, local governments, and international partners. We focus on empowering individuals with the skills, resources, and opportunities they need to break the cycle of poverty and achieve lasting change.
