“I joined PRC in 2013 as a volunteer. That’s when I truly understood the meaning of volunteerism, how we can support people in a humanitarian crisis and how we can care for their vulnerabilities,”
Mushtaq says, recalling her motivation to become a humanitarian volunteer.
“The Humanitarian Podcast”, an initiative of the ICRC in Pakistan, is a first-of-its-kind podcast in the country that serves as a space to explore the triumphs, opportunities and challenges surrounding humanitarian needs and initiatives in the country through conversations about our work and the people we work with.
