Munawar Abro: Binding People Through Verse

Munawar Abro, a famous cartoonist from Dokri, Sindh, who has recently moved to Karachi, has been actively involved with ‘We Can’ since its inception in Pakistan. Besides participating in workshop to develop communication material, the Change Makers’ Assembly and the national launch ceremony, he has been actively supporting the campaign and designing campaign communication material for use in Sindh. Like many young people, he had given up writing poetry when he set out on his professional career with a media concern. But he has been inspired and moved by ‘We Can’ to renew his poetry. He has composed poems around the campaign issues, recited them at various campaign events and drawn wide appreciation. Munawar says, “I am proud to be a Change Maker. I am inspired by the campaign mission and when I see crowds of people raising their voices for women rights, my determination and conviction is strengthened. Yes, We Can together end violence against women!”
