Lyari Girls Cafe organized an event Let's Go cycling to mark the International Day of the Girl in Karachi, Pakistan, on Oct. 11, 2019. which aims to highlight and address the needs and challenges faced by girls while promoting girls' empowerment and the fulfillment of their human rights.
Aao Cycle Chalaen was the theme of the #IDG commemorated by the Lyari Girls Café at the beach of Karachi. The cycling event is organized to commemorate the day and launch anti plastic campaign “ Say No to Plastic Bags” and Let’s Go Cycling.
International Day of the Girl! Honoured to Chief Guest Mr. Mark Rakestraw, Deputy Head of Mission, from the British Deputy High Commission Karachi and Ms. Maren Dick Consular Attaché of the German Consulate also participated.
The event was aimed to demonstrate girl’s power to assert and more than 100 girls form the Lyari Girls Café and other parts of the city took part in cycling show. The girls dedicated the day to environmental protection and promotion of eco friendly practices. The event is organized to Launch Environmental rights Campaign “ Say No to Plastic Bags” a campaign initiated by Lyari Girls Café is planned to raise awareness among citizens to stop using plastic and adopt cotton bags. The environmental campaign of girls is planned in the Lyari area and cotton bags are distributed. Girls are planning to make streets free of plastic bags in Lyari and planning to plant more than 1000 trees in the public spaces and schools.
We believe that cycling would make Karachi an environmental friendly city where girls would have increased access to public sapces and girls would feel protected and confident riding cycles. Cycling is sport and fun together which offers healthy ride, cost free transportation which reduces noise and air pollution. Cycling is also means to claim on public spaces and turn the corners of the city into girls’ friendly space.
Besides girls cycling the event was also comprised of awareness rasing and large number of community memebers attended the event.
with the theme of GirlForce: Unscripted and unstoppable, we will work together with girls in supporting them to amplify their voices and stand up for their rights.
