CPLC: Taking Child Safety Awareness to Gilgit-Baltistan
Last weekend, a group of young dental professionals from across Pakistan organised a free dental camp in Hunza, providing complimentary dental check-ups and engaging with local families, particularly children.
Alongside the dental services, the team conducted child safety awareness sessions under the CPLC Zainab Alert initiative, covering key protective measures such as memorising parents' phone numbers, keeping medicines and chemicals out of children's reach, securing water tanks and sewage manholes, adopting the "No Touch" concept instead of the outdated good touch/bad touch concept, and immediately reporting missing or found children to Zainab Alert and 15, etc.
The dental professionals, representing all four provinces, were also briefed on CPLC Zainab Alert and will carry this awareness back to their respective cities and communities, extending the message of child safety across Pakistan.🇵🇰
