The project builds on former experience in the Swat Valley.

Hintergrund |
Federally Administered Tribal Area (FATA) is the most underdeveloped region located in the north of Pakistan. FATA has long been an area of strategic importance from regional peace and security perspective, but has experienced high levels of instability and insecurity. The on-going military operations (Zarb-e-Azab) cause periodic internal displacements, thus the area is hosting a big number of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). FATA is highly vulnerable to flash floods. Flash floods occur predominantly in the mountainous and semi-mountainous regions and the adjoining plains in the Frontier Regions. Internal conflicts together with natural disasters (including 2010 floods) have severely affected the already limited livelihoods, assets, and infrastructure of the local communities. |
Ziele |
To improve food security (both short-term & long-term) and enhance resilience of the IDPs/returnees/stayees to natural disasters (particularly floods) in FATA (Bajour and Mohmand). |
Zielgruppen |
Beneficiaries are around 15,000 households (120,000 men and women). |
