Strengthening Human Rights Protection Mechanisms in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
This project will improve the protection of rights of the people in KP by strengthening the provincial human rights protection mechanisms. This will be achieved by strengthening the capacity of line departments to manage the rights related responsibilities that were devolved from the federal to the provincial government, by developing a human rights policy, and by raising awareness among civil society on the protection responsibilities of the government.

In particular, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has suffered significantly with reference to protection of rights of its citizens due to the militancy and conflict in the region. |
Obiettivi |
The rights of the people in KP, especially women, children and religious minorities, are better protected through improved provincial human rights promotion and protection mechanisms. |
