In 2021, PILAP has been reorganised to make
the organisation more transparent,
responsive, democratic, and participative
and to create real ownership of the civic issues
that PILAP champions by the citizens
themselves.
The organisational structure has been modified
to make this possible through the introduction
of a Citizens’ Assembly that will comprise of
patriotic, caring, and conscientious citizens who
will take on the critical task of sustaining and
driving the organisation's legislative and
advocacy agenda forward
The PILAP Citizens' Assembly (CA) meets,
in person or virtually, twice a year - once in January and again in July to recommend, discuss, and
debate the following year's Legislative and
Advocacy Agenda and allow the Management
Team to provide a progress report.
Members of the Citizens’ Assembly have the
right to shape the agenda by nominating issues
that could be taken up by PILAP. CA Members
may propose issues close to their hearts that
they’d like to champion and gather support from
others.
PILAP needs passionate people who care about our country and want to play a more instrumental role in improving the quality of life and liberty of Pakistani citizens. You can get involved by doing the following:
