    Pakistan houses one of the youngest populations in the world. 57% (over 100 million) of Pakistan’s population is below 25 years of age. Within this population, those aged between 15 to 35 accounts for almost 37% or 66 million people. Assuming 3 million are graduates, we are left with almost 63 million young adults who are potentially skill able (Source: Population Association of Pakistan,2011-12).

THF aims to address the challenges of livelihood for the youth by providing quality vocational training of international standards. Students are equipped with skills and training of various trades through one-year courses followed by internships in the industry or commercial organizations.THF objective is to turn the disadvantage of overpopulation into an advantage by creating cadres of skilled technicians in a host of relevant disciplines with internationally accepted qualifications.
