ORGANIZATION HISTORY & PROFILE

The Enlight Lab has identified the determinants of change keeping in view the indigenous social dynamics. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and adjoining tribal areas have witnessed the worst wave of terrorism in the past two decades. The war on terror has not only halted the socioeconomic development of the region but has far larger impacts on social and cultural structure. Over this time period criminalization and polarization of one entire community has raised many concerns. The Enlight Lab aims to build an empowered society keeping intact the pluralist, diverse and multicultural identities.


The Enlight Lab looks forward to effective response to challenges through community outreach and investing in youth. We believe that the young ones should be consulted on governance, public policy, political participation and to build their skills to think and reflect critically on modern challenges of the digital century.


Here at The Enlight lab, we have analyzed the emerging local grievances and needs over the time period and came up with vision to create alternatives to them through technology, creative economy, entrepreneurship, governance, democracy, culture and women empowerment.

MISSION

Our mission is to strengthen the bond between individuals, communities and state at physical and digital space. We empower youth and women by boosting their capacity on fundamentals rights and duties.

VISION

We envision a society where individual coexistence is guaranteed irrespective of their gender, class, religion, and ethnicity.

OUR TEAM

At The Enlight Lab, we are a small but highly passionate team working to take up diverse ventures that tackle social inequality!

Our Logo & Color

The official seal of the Enlight Lab combines a ‘dove’ with a ‘nib’ which symbolizes Peace & Education, and both symbols make a torch that shows that through peace and education we can spread enlightenment & democracy.

In color symbolism, purple is the color of enlightenment & wisdom. Purple is our principal brand color. It should be used in every communication and design.
