Education is the basic fundamental right of every citizen. It is because Barakat had been able to understand this simple yet profound truth that it has become successful in earning a name for itself within a short span of time. It is only in the year of 1994 that Barakat came into being with the mission to better the state of the Afghan refugee population through the medium of education. It was the joint effort of Chris Walter, a carpet manufacturer based in US and Habibullah Karimi who was his business partner and a refugee hailing from Afghanistan. However, it did not take them long to make their presence felt. Now, the situation is such that the name of education and Barakat are taken in the same breath and very deservingly so considering the enviable work it has done in the field of education.

It has been a worthwhile journey for Barakat from that one solitary school in Pakistan to an organization who has been instrumental in building numerous such schools in not one but three countries, namely, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The most striking thing about them is that they have not taken a long time to spread ...
... their wings. It has been a remarkably shorter one. Their ultimate aim remains to educate every single individual, especially women and children, of Central and South Asia so that they too can enjoy one of the most basic human rights. It is because they have such a noble cause at hand that they have managed to garner unprecedented support from all quarters. Whenever they organize an event in order to promote their cause, lots of people volunteer to be a part of such activities thereby popularizing their mission. Though their dream has not totally been realized, they are confident that they would soon be completely successful in their endeavor.
