Message from Chairperson/CEO
Sarhad Rural Support Programme (SRSP) is the largest non-government, non-

profit organization working for poverty reduction and ensuring sustainable
means of livelihoods through mobilizing communities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
province and Federally Administered Tribal Areas. Since its inception in 1989,
SRSP has been working in partnership with local communities, government
and private sector and has become a role model for rural development
programmes in Pakistan and South Asian region. SRSP has developed an
inherent ability to reflect, learn and adapt to challenging scenarios which has
become its major strengths and has guided evolution of its programming.
Based on these strengths, SRSP has positioned itself to effectively address
future development needs of partner communities in its programme areas.
Dear readers, the last year was once again very eventful in life of SRSP and was
characterized by a very high level of activities. SRSP contributed to promote
inclusive human development, alleviate extreme poverty and reduce gender
disparities in poor and marginalized areas of KP and FATA. Based on RSPs philosophy, SRSP remained committed to establishing
organizations of poor and federating them at higher level to form LSOs and play its role in this process as a catalyst organization.
The year saw many opportunities for community activists to get together and share their achievements attained under conditions
of great adversity and to continue promoting institutions that are accountable to the grassroots.
The humanitarian crisis which has become an integral part

of life in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province continued during
last year. The process of settling back IDPs in their respective
areas was hampered by delays due to multiple reasons.
During this challenging period, SRSP remained committed
to support these disaster affected communities through
need based initiatives in designated areas/camps and
outside camps. The development work of the organization
has continued with same zeal and enthusiasm as in the past.
The partnerships with European Union and PPAF continued
in many districts, especially Malakand Division, giving
continuity and depth to SRSPs programmes and benefitting
poor and vulnerable population. In addition partnerships
with UN agencies inclusive of UNICEF, UNDP, UNFPA and
UNHCR supported disaster affected communities, especially,
in FATA region. DFAT formerly known as AusAID, during the year, provided financial and technical support for undertaking
innovative measures in central districts benefitting predominantly women. During the year, SRSP supported Government of KP in
various initiatives including development of over 100 micro-hydro projects and training PTAs across the province. Following these
footsteps, SRSP had also synchronized efforts with FATA secretariat to expand outreach and support socio-economic growth in
FATA.
The major donors as already mentioned to support SRSPs interventions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa comprised European Union (EU),
Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund (PPAF), Government of KP, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade formerly known as AusAid,
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), United Nation
Children Fund (UNICEF), United Nation Population Fund and Pakistan Afghanistan Tajikistan Regional Integration programme
(PATRIP). Along with these major donors, some international organizations like OSI, Coffey, ASI, RSPN and Britich Council also
contributed significantly in various components of SRSP programmes. New donors e.g. KfW showed an interest and came on board
to support livelihood strengthening programme in FATA. The thematic/programmatic details along-with summaries of short, long
term and humanitarian programmes/projects are also mentioned in this report in detail. Hope you will enjoy reading it.

Major highlights of 2015-2016
The year 2015-16 again proved remarkable for SRSP due to high level of interventions in programme areas. It saw diversification
of programme portfolio to add e.g. large hydro projects, strengthen existing and fostering new partnerships with National and
International agencies and support government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in its endeavors to reach marginalized population and
areas. SRSP expanded its development canvas to all 25 districts in KP and 13 tribal areas (FATA) for benefiting deserving communities
especially women and children socially and economically.
The family of men and women community based organizations at three different levels continued to grow. So far, a phenomenal
figure of formation of 39,000 community based organizations (26,000 men and 13,000 women) representing over 916,000 member
households across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Tribal areas has been achieved. Efforts to form apex level village and union council
level organizations for ensuring their self sufficiency and financial sustainability were intensified and as a result 148 Local Support
Organizations (LSOs) covering 284,500 households have been formed. Addressing infrastructural needs in areas where state has
not been able to reach remained a significant feature of the organization. A total of 9,500 small scale community maintained
infrastructure schemes benefitting nearly 2 million population have been initiated/completed. These infrastructure schemes were
inclusive of 253 micro hydro projects in northern mountainous regions of KP, which has enhanced access of 50,000 poor/off grid
households to clean and renewable energy. A unique aspect during the year was initiation of large hydro power projects of upto
2 megawatt in districts Swat, Dir, Shangla and Chitral. These units, mostly supported by EU, would provide electricity to rural
and urban areas in mentioned districts addressing their energy needs. The coverage of off-grid population through clean energy
was also boosted with SRSP-Pakhtunkhwa Energy Development Organization (PEDO) partnership to initiate over 100 micro hydro
projects in potential districts and areas.
The microfinance program focused, mainly, on extending Community Investment Fund (CIF) to poor and vulnerable women
in selected districts inclusive of two new districts Swat and Chitral. The program disbursed over 67 million (PKR) in last fiscal
year and ensured 100% recovery. SRSPs technical and vocational skills center delivered need based market driven employable
skills to deserving community members for their livelihood strengthening and improvement besides contributing to reducing
unemployment in the province. SRSP remained committed to Gender mainstreaming in all major components, programmes and
projects. This was achieved through gender responsive budgeting, initiating women specific infrastructure schemes, setting up
mobile units for enhancing their technical and leadership qualities, and limiting CIF to women exclusively. During 2015-16, SRSP
invested in promoting alternative models, essentially supporting Go-KP and other international partners, for improving delivery
of quality education. In this regard new partnerships with provincial and international stakeholders were developed to expand
coverage of education in the province. One such example was initiation of (mega) capacity building project to train all members
(over 209,500) of 27,000 Parent Teacher Councils across KP. WASH and Total Sanitation interventions undertaken in selected
districts helped in developing model villages urging key stakeholders to replicate the same in other districts to improve health
and hygiene situation in KP. Under social sector services, SRSP through innovative models improved access of poor and vulnerable
to formal justice; lessons from which have also been shared nationally, regionally and internationally with key stakeholders.
Promotion of rural enterprises and developing value chains also comprised an important component of SRSP development work
to enhance rural income and generate local employment.
During 2015-16, European Union supported PEACE and CDLD programmes programmes achieved major milestones in Malakand
division. EU-PEACE micro-hydro projects significantly changed, if not revolutionalized, life of local population. Availability of clean
and renewable energy had profound impacts on social and economic activities, besides improving health, education and local
environment. In contrast, EU-CDLD took strides for improving state-citizen relationship through innovative initiatives at both
demand (community) and supply (Local Government Institutions) levels. The long-term partnership between SRSP and Pakistan
Poverty Alleviation Funds continued to undertake multiple initiatives in selected districts. These interesting and unique initiatives
expanded and deepened coverage in targeted districts to benefit local communities. The Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade
(DFAT/AusAid) supported implementation of WEEMD project in three border districts of KP with a focus on women economic
empowerment and market development. With an expansion in same districts, areas and communities, the project, during its
phase II, has adopted a professional approach to enhance incomes of especially women. A significant highlight of last year was the
partnership between SRSP and KfW for implementation of rehabilitation/reintegration of Temporary Displaced Population (TDPs)
in FATA. To address short term needs of these TDPs, the support provided by UN agencies including (UNHCR, UNDP, UNICEF, and
UNFPA) had been exemplary. The partnerships with Pakistan Afghanistan Tajikistan Regional Integration Program (PATRIP), Rural
Support Programme Network (RSPN), British Council, OSI and COFFEY international continued for delivering need based services
at community level.
SRSPs awareness of context, culture and local level sensitivities augmented by well established Standard Operating Procedures
(SOPs), adherence to highest standards for project/programme management, transparent financial management, internal/
learning audit, monitoring-evaluation, gender sensitization and focus on cross cutting issues has enabled it to be one of the most
important stakeholders in rural development alongside other public and key institutions. SRSP regional, district and field teams
with backstopping support from an active Board and head office core team led by CEO have achieved significant milestones for
promoting and supporting local communities in reducing their poverty and contributing to socio-economic development of their
areas.

Section I - Thematic details
Grassroots Human and Institutional Building

SRSPs participatory approach to
community driven development involves
an active engagement of rural men and
women in development process. The
Human and Institutional Development
(HID) component is always focused on
realizing peoples potential for self-
reliance and self dependence. Tapping
communities potential and latent energy
through a process of social guidance has
always been a core feature of SRSPs
social mobilization process. SRSP follows
three-tier social mobilization strategy
fostering men and women community
based organizations at mohallah, village
and union council level to develop
peoples institutions. This approach helps
in making rural communities realize their
individual potential, select local level
genuine leadership, develop financial
capital, and establish viable and effective
linkages with service providers for social
and economic inclusive development of their areas.

So far, since inception, SRSP has been able to organize
over 39,000 community based organizations (26,000 men
and 13,000 women) representing over 916,000 member
households across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Tribal areas.
These inclusive community based organizations have also
been federated at higher/apex level village and union
council level organizations commonly known as village
organizations and Local Support Organizations (LSOs). So
far, 148 LSOs covering over 284,500 households have been
formed and supported by SRSP. Formation of Local Support
Organizations can be perceived as one of the pragmatic
steps to delegate roles and responsibilities for long term
sustainability of these Community Based Organizations
Need based support and capacity building initiatives
through Rural Support Programmes have enabled
these LSOs to develop effective and viable partnerships
for mobilizing resources to support socio-economic
development of their areas essentially benefitting poor and
vulnerable population.
First Harvest of Social Mobilization (excerpts from Shoaib Sultan Khans NFR)
The Khyber Pukhtunkhwa (KPK) government has amended the Local Government Act replacing each erstwhile
Union Council with 3 to 4 Village Councils (VCs) and allocating 30% of the provincial Annual Development Programme
(ADP) to be directly given to VCs. This meant that each VC will have an allocation of PKR 5-7 million annually
depending on the size of the Provincial ADP. This offers a grand opportunity for grassroots development by involving
communities in decision making about development of their area.

improve quality of life rural poor particularly women and

children. The infrastructure development component
of SRSP has diversified and grown remarkably over
the years in terms of budget allocation, number and
outreach. Following community based approach so far
SRSP has initiated 9,492 infrastructure schemes with
an investment of PKR 6 Billion, out of which 9,211
have been completed. These schemes include Bridges,
Drinking Water Supply Schemes, Link Roads, Irrigation
Schemes, Schools, Health Centers, and Protection Walls
and Mini Dams and Soil Conservation Schemes that have
benefitted over 2 Million population.
Tapping sources of renewable energy has become one of

SRSPs major portfolios. This shift is immensely important
in order to respond to issues of environmental degradation
and resource depletion in KP province. Over years SRSP
has built over 253 Micro-hydro units in the mountainous
regions of KP, supplying off-grid communities with clean,
environmental friendly and uninterrupted power supply.
So far 27 megawatt electricity is generated benefiting
over 500,000 population. These MHPs have played
an important role in improving health and education
facilities and have generated economic growth,
witnessed by flourishing enterprises, hotel industry and
flour mills and a multitude of new businesses. This has
also led to reduction in reliance on fossil fuel and wood
etc. for household energy consumption.

Special Projects, Social Sector & Gender

Economic Growth through Enterprise &
Value Chain Development
Attaining sustainable impact at scale is the goal of most SRSPs
projects. Private Sector & Market Development approach is
progressively being realized as prospective means for achieving
this objective. SRSP has implemented a few among various
approaches in PSD in almost all the Projects. PSD seeks to
catalyze a process that results in a market system that is
Competitive, Inclusive and Resilient. The approach focuses on
building the capacity, leveraging the incentives and resources of
the private sector, ensuring the beneficial inclusion of the very
poor and stimulating change and innovation that continues to
grow beyond the life of the project. Value-Chain Development
in ASF, EU, Aus-Aid & PPAF Projects: Entrepreneurship
development Program for CIDA, Aus-Aid and PPAF Projects:
Employment Generation through Technical & Vocational Skill
development Programs for similar and other Projects are a few
examples.
SRSPs Value Chain Development (VCD) program encompasses

a pro-poor development approach. The strategies have helped
in job creation through strengthening enterprises, business
relationships and improving market structures. Our VCD
programs have assisted in developing local micro and small
enterprises and helped our rural entrepreneurs in overcoming
constraints such as poor market access and little bargaining
power. Through the value chain approach, producers are linked
to consumers needs, and are provided opportunities to work
closely with suppliers and traders to produce the specific
goods that consumers demands. Similarly, through flows of
information and products, consumers are linked to the needs
of producers. The proven philosophy of social mobilization
was practiced in the project where the target farmers were
motivated and organized around the concept of Functional
groups. The capacities of farmers/Producers were enhanced
in assessing their respective value chain, finding gaps and
identifying appropriate interventions for the development
of their chains. This has enabled them to obtain increased
productions, improved knowledge and market information in
their respective fields.
