DESCRIPTION:

Pakistan Home Economics Association (PHEA) was an independent NGO formed by the alumni association of the College of Home Economics, Lahore. The President and the Vice-President of PHEA felt that board members, as well as ordinary members, had an apathetic attitude towards the association and its activities. Members were dissatisfied with what the association had to offer to them and were reluctant to pay their membership dues, or to devote time and effort. Having spent several years with PHEA in different capacities, the President and Vice President were well aware of the internal and external weaknesses and strengths of the association and were keen to make a success of the association.
