The Ismaili Muslim Community across the globe celebrated the second annual Global Ismaili CIVIC Day on 25 September 2022.
Ismaili CIVIC is a global programme that unites the community around its centuries-old tradition of serving humanity by rendering voluntary service to improve the quality of life of the communities in which it lives, regardless of faith, gender or background. This international endeavour reflects the community’s ethic of civic engagement and good citizenship.
The Ismaili Council for the UAE, in collaboration with the Pakistan Association Dubai, organised an initiative to support the Pakistan Flood Emergency Appeal, on Saturday, 24 September and Sunday, 25 September, which involved volunteers from the Ismaili Community collaborating with the Pakistan Association Dubai.
Since the global launch of the Ismaili CIVIC initiative in 2020, significant impact has been achieved in the areas of health, education, economic development, environmental stewardship and cultural restoration.
To date, Ismaili CIVIC has benefitted millions of people, planted millions of trees, received more than 125,000 hours of voluntary service from 30,000 plus volunteers, engaged 150 partners, and held more than 600 activities in over 30 countries across the globe. Ismaili CIVIC endeavours to strengthen the bonds between communities and foster collaboration and commitment to improving the human condition across the globe.
