Welcome To NOW Communities

The commitment of National Organization for Working Communities (NOWCommunities) was founded in 2007 - though it was formally registered with the Sindh Government in January 2008 - by a team of dedicated experts in development sector who were already working in various fields concerning labour, women, peace, minorities, media, education, and community health.
