FAFEN has launched a nationwide initiative to monitor governance processes under its Democratic Governance Program in line with its mandate to strengthen all forms of democratic accountabilities in Pakistan. Objective information about governance processes is vital to encourage informed engagement of citizenry with elected and public institutions for progressive outputs. Police Station monitoring is an effort by FAFEN to identify the strengths and challenges of the police stations across the country and to hold them accountable for fulfilling their public mandate.
