Zindagi Aur Jeena (زندگی اور جینا) shares inspiring stories of resilience and purpose. One such story is that of Dr. Quratulain Bakhteari, a Pakistani social entrepreneur and educator whose life reflects courage, learning, and service. Born in a refugee settlement near Karachi, she faced hardship from an early age, married young, and became a mother while still in her youth. Despite these challenges, she pursued higher education, earning advanced qualifications in social work and community development. She began her professional journey in Orangi, Karachi, where she worked on public health and sanitation initiatives with the Orangi Pilot Project. Later, in Quetta, she launched the Community Support Process, helping establish a vast network of community schools that opened doors to education for girls from underserved areas.
