HISTORY and PRESENT
Kashmir has a prolonged and chronic history of conflict has always been the inspiration behind Paigaam's work. Paigaam is an Urdu/Persian word that means 'a message' in English language hence the whole name of the organization. Our concept of peace is very much driven from the intersection of mental health and inner peace perspective.
What started as a health-peace initiative for youth in Kashmir, has evolved into USA-Kashmir registered international non-profit, non-governmental and non-political organization today. Currently, only our Kashmir-chapter is functional which is registered as a Trust under the Indian Trusts Act. Our local partner is: The Peace Gong Over the past decade, we have educated, trained and empowered thousands of people all across Jammu and Kashmir through peace-education, youth empowerment, mental health awareness, emotional wellbeing, empathy and various peace-psychology techniques for healing and healthier expression. |
