Our Interventions
UMR Pakistan prioritizes agile efforts that can quickly reach disaster-affected populations, and micro-targeted interventions that reach remote and rural communities. UMR Pakistan is committed to the global SDG principle to ‘leave no one behind’ by helping the Government of Pakistan alleviate the burden of poverty on populations that are difficult to reach. As a result, UMR has been closely working with its partners to improve the lives of millions of people across Pakistan by providing humanitarian assistance to the needy, affected and marginalized population Since 2015.
