About Us:

Our Vision: Freedom to access accurate information to do good.

 

Our Mission: Help improve policy and decision-making through research, analysis, and training.

Founded in 2020, Pasewan is an independent, non-profit, and non-partisan organisation. We adopt an untiring aim to pivot and address the vital societal issues in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.

Our dedicated Pasewan team is consistently engaged, dynamic, and local. We employ field staff with personal experience and perspectives on the ground of the region – getting the people’s voices heard.

We fight disinformation and fake news by closely monitoring the information ecosystem of the region. We know that insightful research and meaningful data will inspire policymakers, other political leaders, and community activists to enact positive societal change.

We know that strengthening the country through reinforcing public institutions, supporting the democratic process, and promoting responsible citizenship will bring a better future. We do this by focusing on existing leaders in government and the new generation. We know that there is hope and optimism for a brighter future.

The values to back us up in, both trying and optimistic times, are safety, integrity, accountability, teamwork, respect, and community.

There is power in the collective capacity for action and change – and Pasewan seeks to empower all people to be part of that collective.

We know that it takes a community, together, to act.

Lastly, we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
