In Pakistan, many adolescents experience emotional difficulties, but mental health problems are often overlooked. Stigma, limited awareness about mental health and difficulties accessing professional support can prevent young people and families from getting the help they need. Parents play an important role in supporting their adolescents' mental health. The way parents communicate with their children, set family rules, manage conflict, provide emotional support and encourage healthy habits can influence adolescents' wellbeing. However, parenting programmes that help parents reduce the risk of depression and anxiety in adolescents are limited in Pakistan. This study aims to address this gap by adapting and evaluating an online parenting programme called Partners in Parenting (PiP) for families in Pakistan. Hence, the aim is to find out whether the culturally adapted PiP programme can reduce the risk of depression and anxiety among adolescents and improve parenting practices and parent-adolescent relationships. We will also explore whether the programme is acceptable, easy to use and helpful for Pakistani families, and whether it provides good value for the resources required to deliver it. First, we will work with adolescents, parents, grandparents, teachers and health professionals to understand their experiences and views about adolescent mental health and parenting in Pakistan. Their feedback will be used to make PiP culturally appropriate and relevant to Pakistani families. People with lived experience of adolescent mental health difficulties will also be involved throughout the adaptation process. The study will then evaluate the adapted programme with 1,300 parent-adolescent pairs across eight cities in Pakistan: Karachi, Hyderabad, Lahore, Rawalpindi, Multan, Qambar Shahdad Kot, Larkana and Sukkur. Families will be randomly allocated to three groups i.e partners in parenting, Shamiri, and control group. PiP is an online programme designed to help parents develop positive parenting skills and strengthen their relationships with their adolescents. Adolescents participating in the study will receive a four-session programme called Shamiri, which focuses on developing a growth mindset, gratitude and personal values. Process evaluation will explore how the programme is delivered and experienced in real-world settings. This will help us understand whether families engage with and complete the programme, which parts they find useful or difficult, how acceptable and practical the intervention is, and what factors may support or prevent successful implementation. We will gather information from parents, adolescents and those involved in delivering or supporting the programme to understand their experiences and identify ways the programme could be improved and implemented more effectively. The findings could help identify practical and accessible ways to support adolescent mental health in Pakistan. The study will give parents and adolescents an opportunity to contribute to research that aims to improve mental health support for young people in Pakistan.",[27],"Risk of Depression and Anxiety",[29],"Adolescents, Parenting, depression, anxiety, Pakistan","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-08-25",{"date":33,"type":34},"2026-08-27","ACTUAL",{"date":36,"type":21},"2026-09-07",{"date":38,"type":21},"2027-09-30",{"name":40,"class":41},"Pakistan Institute of Living and Learning","OTHER"]
