Dear Educational Leaders,
We realize now more than ever that valuing our language is essential to our lives. It is a symbol of freedom and a depositor of history and culture for any nation. Our national language stands as our pride and dignity.
While acknowledging the importance of globalization, as teachers and parents, we need to inspire respect and interest for Urdu within our children and students.
Pehchan Pakistan holds inclusive open contests inviting students aged 3 to 22 years to participate and unleash their imagination and creative vision through different creative avenues.
We have the faith that you as Educational Leader will join hands in an attempt to promote our national language - Urdu!
Public and Private educational institutions are invited be part of this contest by encouraging their students. Special education schools are also encouraged to participate.
We look forward to enthusiastic participation from your students and expect to receive genuine pieces of work.
With Sincere Regards, Team Pehchan Pakistan
