Children's Literature Festival (CLF) is now rebranded as the Pakistan Learning Festival (PLF) as a movement to generate positive social capital creating networks and associations for the purpose of ‘unlocking the power of learning, reading, self-expression and critical thinking". The festival is curated across multiple-learning strands, is multi-disciplinary, multi-lingual and inclusive for all. PLF targets children (3-18); teachers and youth in colleges and universities.

CLF has remained an equaliser to ALL school systems; it soon offered thture Festival (TLFs) to adopt innovative methodologies & empowering children as learners.
