The state bordered the Gilgit Agency to the south, the former princely state of Nagar to the east. The state capital was the town of Baltit (also known as Karimabad) and its old settlement is Ganish Village. Hunza was an independent principality for more than 900 years.

The then Thom (Prince) Mir Safdar Ali Khan of Hunza fled to Kashghar in China and sought what can be called political asylum.

  • Contribution of the Wild Food Plants in the Food System of Tribal Belt of Pakistan; the Pak - Afghan Border Region Abdullah and Shujaul Mulk Khan*
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 19 September 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202009.0454.v1 Article Contribution of the Wild Food Plants in the Food System of Tribal Belt of Pakistan; The Pak - Afghan Border Region Abdullah and Shujaul Mulk Khan* Department of Plant Sciences, Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The tribal belt of Pakistan-the Pak-Afghan border region is famous for its unique culture, ethnography and wild food plants and traditional knowledge. People of these regions gather wild plants for number of purposes including plants or plant parts for direct use, use it in the traditional cuisines and selling in local markets. However, there is huge lack of documentation of food system particularly the Wild Food Plants (WFPs). In current study we have focused on the uses and contributions of the WFPs in the tribal traditional food system. The ethnobotanical data were gathered through questionnaire surveys with Eighty-four informants 69 men and 15 women belonging to 21 different villages. We documented Sixty-three WFP species belonging to 34 botanical families, of which 27 were used as vegetables, 24 as fruits, 6 in different kinds of chutneys (starters) formation and six as fresh food species. Fruits were the mostly used part (40%) followed by leaves (24%), aerial parts (24%), seeds (7%), stem (3%), legume (2%) and young inflorescence (1%). Use of Carthamus oxycanthus & Pinus roxburghii seeds and Marsillea quadrifolia leaves were the novel reports for the gastronomy of Pakistan. The results elucidate that WFPs have a significant contribution in the Tribal Food Systems.

  • Un Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Merged Districts Support Programme Qualitative Research Finding
    UN KHYBER PAKHTUNKHWA MERGED DISTRICTS SUPPORT PROGRAMME QUALITATIVE RESEARCH FINDINGS LOCAL GRIEVANCES AND COMPLAINT REGISTRATION MECHANISMS May – June 2019 Verso ConsultIng Pvt. Ltd 1 General FindIngs The UNRCO team has undertaken a research exercise to inform the back-end structure of the programme’s Grievance Redress Mechanism. The qualitative enquiry has been conducted in a selection of 15 tehsils/sub-divisions across 5 NMDs (Khyber, Kurram, Orakzai, North Waziristan, and South Waziristan) with three tehsils selected per district. Through 30 focus group discussions (15 male and 15 female) and 30 key informant interviews the research team has investigated the following: a) status of mobility for different target groups; b) patterns of vulnerability and exclusion; c) access to social and economic services; d) various types of grievances; e) channels of registering complaints; and f) perceptions of the forthcoming transition in rule of law. The research found that mobility is generally problematic for a majority of the population due to lack of transport facilities and fuel service points, however mobility for women is disproportionately restricted across 4 of 5 districts (Khyber being the exception). Additionally in areas with active sectarian conflict (Orakzai and Kurram) mobility is severely restricted for religious minorities and women. While most respondents reported monthly household income under PKR 15,000/- and high poverty remains an excluding factor, exclusion from social and public participation is also a function of gender, disability, and age. Similarly, in access to services, schools, hospitals, rural and remote populations are disproportionately excluded. Local health centers/ BHUs are mostly unreliable in terms of service capacity – those who can afford the travel expense rely on health centers in the district headquarters or travel to big cities.
