Karachi. She has been unable to hear or speak&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">since birth and has always depended on her family for&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">support. Due to her disability, she faced many&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">challenges in life, especially when it came to finding <\/span><br><span style=\"color: #000000;\">opportunities to earn an income. She always wanted to&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">contribute to her family&#8217;s financial needs and gain&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">independence, but the lack of accessible opportunities&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">made it difficult for her to do so.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Determined to change her situation, Shahzeen kept&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">searching for ways to learn new skills that could help&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">her become financially stable. With the support of&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">UNDP and HomeNet Pakistan (HNP), she finally got&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">the opportunity to enroll in a basic stitching and fabric&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">designing course at a vocational training institute. Her&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">course fees and transportation costs were fully&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">covered, which allowed her to focus on her learning&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">without financial stress. Additionally, she received a&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">travel allowance through the cash app, which helped her&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">manage her daily expenses and commute easily.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Despite facing communication barriers and other challenges, Shahzeen showed great dedication&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">and worked hard to develop her skills. Through this training, she not only learned stitching and&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">fabric designing but also gained the confidence to start her own small business. She now hopes to&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">continue learning and improving her skills. Shahzeen wants to stay connected with HomeNet&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Pakistan, which has supported her on this journey, and explore more training opportunities to&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">further expand her abilities.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With her newfound skills and confidence, Shahzeen is now on the path to financial independence.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">She is determined to use her stitching business to support herself and her family, proving that with&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">the right opportunities and support, she can overcome any obstacle in her way.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-be654a4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"be654a4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Case Studies Of Shahzeen Sr.No Name Father\/Husband Category Address Profession 20 Shahzeen Sabir Sheikh HBW\/PWD Baldia, Karachi Stitching\/Fabric Design Case Studies Of Shahzeen Shahzeen Sabir is a 46-year-old woman from [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5274,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5273","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-case-studie"],"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5273","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5273"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5273\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5286,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5273\/revisions\/5286"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5274"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5273"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5273"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mahmoodtariq.com\/hnp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5273"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
