The Pakistan Action Network (PAN) is a network of overseas Pakistanis working to promote democracy, human rights and social justice in Pakistan and within overseas Pakistani communities. Our goal is to work in partnership with our sisters and brothers living in Pakistan, especially those who are the most marginalized.
PAN grew out of the resistance to the Musharraf initiated emergency in Pakistan and the ousting of the independent judiciary. We were founded in Vancouver, Unceded Coast Salish Territory (BC, Canada) but we are committed towards working with Pakistanis around the world and in Pakistan itself.
