Leave No one Behind is a campaign originally started in 2015, the campaign was originally brought forth by the former UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-Moon. The initial goal of the campaign is to make sure that no one is left behind, the goal is meant for people of not just a single race or ethnicity but, for all. The goal is set to be delivered by 2030 as of yet.
This is a long term movement that seeks to provide comfort to the victims and give them a platform to voice their story and fight for their right themselves. Since 2016 the campaign has touched many taboo and unspeakable issues that at times are frowned upon still. As of recent the campaign has shifted its focus on women with disabilities and their fight for equality. Pakistan in this aspect has taken a huge initiative at stepping on the forum of women equality in different walks of life.
