Contrary to popular notion, Jamiat actually is THE LARGEST YOUTH LED ORG. IN THE WORLD and for this, it faces same PR problems as any organisation at scale. How IJT defines itself is equally amazing.

Part of the reason why Jamiat still thrives is its loosely coupled faced paced org. structure & that actually is its strength. A preview of IJT’s history is equally surprising and fascinating.

Jamiat in numbers is mind boggling. The accumulative organisational strength is roughly 125,000. Through campaigns it reaches to more than 2 Million youth each year, more than all the youth organisations in Pakistan combined.

Otherwise known as ‘تربیت گاہیں’, Knowledge boot-camps are Pakistan’s oldest youth training program. Every year thousands of youth pass through these brief training programs across Pakistan based upon the themes of human capital development.

Jamiat is the evidence why youth is the future of human race, be it politically or socially. Its annual campaign yields more results than all the NGOs could in a decade combined. Its Youth Expos are biggest and benefits those actually in need.
