The last trip of the year to Pakistan. A bit unexpected, but we received some generous donations specifically for this purpose. This allowed us to still visit our families and further explore initiatives together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On every trip, you\u2019re confronted again with the challenges so many people face. From the hotel view, you could see a tunnel \u201ctent\u201d on top of a building\u2014this is where a family lives, exposed to the elements, the noise, and the smog of Lahore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there were also beautiful moments, like new life\u2014the birth of a wonderful son in one of our close families. We also formed many new connections and visited old ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the second week, I (Arnout) was invited to attend the AgriExpo in Karachi. This fair is a great opportunity to expand the network for business initiatives. Once again, valuable connections were made with the Dutch delegation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We look forward to seeing what these new relationships and ideas will mean for improving employment opportunities, and how we can create real socio-economic impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
