Vision: A fair society which is economically productive and equitable, socially just, environmentally sound, effectively democratic, where men and women avail equal rights in all spheres of life and children live in safe environment. PIPASA is keen to develop a new approach to development. PIPASA believes that the increasing global concern about the human dimensions of development requires the integration of gender concerns in all stages and at all levels of sustainable development as a means to ensure human well being equitably enjoyed by all people. The interrelation between population, resources, environment and development should be fully recognized, properly managed and brought into a harmonious and dynamic synergy.
Although PIPASA is concerned with the poor communities its activities have so far been centered round the poor distressed people who are the victims of dowry, fatwah, unexpected divorce, torture etc. PIPASA is always aware of its solution through peaceful manner.
Mission: Alleviation of poverty and eradication of absolute poverty are fundamental to the achievement of sustainable development and the advancement of women and children. The policy frame work is set to reflect the ways in which the relation between women and men constrain or advance efforts to boost growth and reduce poverty for all. This focus characterized the gender and development approach which it promotes to enhance women's contribution to development as is committed to main streaming women issues into its operations, so that a balanced gender partnership is achieved as a prerequisite for full development of human potential.
