Does anyone know of any good groups in Pakistan? Groups that deserve support?
Preferably anarchist, libertarian, progressive, and the like, but at least worthy of support.
There's the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (http://www.rawa.org/ ), the Iraq Freedom Congress (http://www.ifcongress.com/English/index.htm ), and so on, but what about Pakistan?
Thanks in advance.

Okay, but it's still not really the sort of group I was thinking of. Do you know of any good NGOs in Pakistan?

Oh that.. I don't have any direct experience. Lots of groups are found via google on Pakistan NGOs
Human Rights Group of Pakistan - HRGP h*k@post.com Main Office in Karachi, Sindh. [The Trust Act, 1882]
There are some others... the best known are connected to the Aga Khan. Which one is best for your purposes is up to you... don't forget how big a country Pakistan is.
Since Musharraf called the emergency there are a lot of problems. Here is an article (in German) from Qantara.de about it:
