Benazir Nashonuma Program
The Benazir Nashonuma Program is a big plan by the government of Pakistan to help poor people be healthier. It focuses on making sure that pregnant and breastfeeding women, and children aged 6 to 23 months get the right food and care they need. To be part of this program, people must already be getting help from the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) and live in any district of Pakistan.
The main goal of this program is to stop malnutrition, which is when people don’t get enough good food and become unhealthy. It’s essential to take care of pregnant and breastfeeding women and young children because they play a big role in the health of our society.
Ehsaas Nashonuma Program will provide important things like good food and healthcare to these people. It wants to make sure they have everything they need to live a better life and stay healthy. It’s especially important for pregnant and breastfeeding women because they can help their babies grow up healthy too.
However, the Benazir Nashonuma Program is a great step towards making sure everyone in Pakistan can be healthier and have a brighter future. By taking care of pregnant and breastfeeding women and young children, the program is making sure that our whole country becomes stronger and happier.

An important achievement is that the Benazir Nashonuma Centers have expanded from being in 15 districts to covering all 157 districts in Pakistan. This means more people who need help can benefit from these centers.
To make this program even better and reach more people, the government has set aside more than 32 billion for the Benazir Nashonuma Programme for the next year. This money will help around 1.5 million people in total. The government is working together with other organizations to make sure this program is successful and can help pregnant and breastfeeding women and babies all over the country.
