Roshni Association was founded in 2001 by Shahida Perveen (from Pakistan) and her husband Hamid Hannesen (from Germany). The aim was to combine the meeting of the Orient and the Occident with an appropriate perspective of people with disabilities and special needs. Roshni Association is currently running two projects, Roshni Village and Green Earth Roshni School to support the neglected areas of care for special persons and education to village children, respectively, in our society.
