With best regards, Sep 2015 Shazia Maqsood Amjad Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a life time About Pakistan Centre for Philanthropy Photo Credits: Abdul Rehman Joyia Pakistan Centre for Philanthropy (PCP) is a non-profit support organisation with a mandate to promote the volume and effectiveness of philanthropy in Pakistan. Established in 2001, it brings together in its Board of Directors many years of experience and commitment by a group of eminent citizens, civil society representatives and corporate leaders. The Centre does not engage in direct philanthropy; instead it strives to facilitate philanthropic efforts of others through its support services. Its mission thereby is to bring additional resources to assist the Government in its poverty reduction agenda. Given the scope and nature of its programmes, PCP has nationwide outreach to accredited CSOs spread all over the country and works in close linkage with them. The credibility gap that exists between donors and CSOs is a matter of concern to PCP, About PCP and it seeks to bridge this trust deficit through its various programme activities. Strengthening Civil Society Governance in Pakistan PCP’s Certification Programme of NPOs is one of the unique initiatives in the entire South Asia region. Through this programme, PCP seeks to set sector-wide standards in critical 3 areas of good governance, financial transparency and programme effectiveness, and to promote adoption of best practices for increased efficiency and impact. Certification involves a thorough and professional evaluation of NPOs’ objectives based on standardised parameters. The primary objective is to increase opportunities for credible Sep 2015 NPOs to access resources and work more effectively toward social and economic development of the society. Research Programme Major objective of PCP’s research programme is to reflect a better understanding of philanthropy for social development, to advocate for a more enabling policy, regulatory and fiscal framework and to professionalise grant making to civil society organisations in Pakistan. PCP has been conducting research to explore the nature and dimensions of giving in Pakistan and has produced a number of quality reports and publications on subjects related to philanthropy in Pakistan. About PCP PCP Team Promoting Philanthropy for Social Development 4 Motivated by an overarching concern to move Pakistan toward greater self-reliance and away from dependency on external aid, PCP has developed a Philanthropy Support Services Programme to improve institutional mechanisms for promoting philanthropy as a form of social investment in Pakistan. The scope of this programme is broad and includes raising public awareness about the concept and dimensions of philanthropy, encouraging and Sep 2015 PCP’s Outreach Research Certification Philanthropy Support Services supporting the Government to create an enabling regulatory and fiscal framework, and engaging in a multi-stakeholder dialogue to build consensus for such a framework. The efforts of PCP in promoting philanthropy are not just limited to its programmes’ activities; the Centre has been pioneering the Corporate Philanthropy Awards to acknowledge philanthropic contributions by the business entities in Pakistan. The first ceremony in 2006 was so well received that it has become a regular annual feature now. PCP has worked with almost every large national and international partner and developed partnerships with the Ministry of Social Welfare, Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), Government of Pakistan, the World Bank, European Union (EU), Asian Development Bank About PCP (ADB), the Provincial Government of Sindh, International Organisation for Migration (IOM), Department for International Development (DfID), Aga Khan Rural Support Programme (AKRSP), Agha Khan Foundation (AKF) and several corporate leaders.

While it has been my honour and privilege to have served this organisation, the credit for PCP’s achievements must go to the collective eorts of the Board of Directors, the four Executive Directors and the creative and loyal sta members who supported me and gave me wise counsel during the course of my tenure as Chair. Seventeen years ago, on the initiative of His Highness, the Aga Khan, some eminent citizens along with leaders of civil society and the corporate world worked for over two years to determine what could be done to enhance the volume and eectiveness of philanthropy in our country. Their eorts were rewarded when in 2000, their recommendations were adopted by a seminal international conference in Islamabad. The conference supported the concept of FROM THE DESK OF THE CHAIRMAN... institutionalising the promotion of philanthropy by the establishment of the Pakistan Centre for Philanthropy. The objective of the Centre, they conrmed, would be to reignite the innate philanthropic instinct of our people and channel it not only towards relief, but also investment in social assets that could help alleviate poverty and supplement government eorts. And today, as I look back on the record of our achievements, we can all take genuine satisfaction from the Tribute way this organisation has served to strengthen civil society and the people of Pakistan. While these accomplishments are signicant, they do remind us of how much there still remains to be done. One of my pleasant duties as I retire from the Chairmanship is to introduce the rst bi-annual newsleer of PCP starting this year. This work represents key milestones in the short history of 8 PCP. Through continued faith in the core principles and objectives of PCP, we were the rst NPO to start a unique programme of Certication to bring credibility to our civil society organisations and thereby help reduce the decit of trust that exists between them and the donors who support them. The Government of Pakistan appraised this programme in 2003, following which PCP was designated as the only CSO certication agency authorised to evaluate Sep 2015 CSOs seeking tax exemption and other scal benets. Today, we have a databank of 364 credible, certied CSOs across Pakistan that deliver much needed services, often at a very low cost, in variety of socio-economic sectors.

    Geotechnical properties of soil and its implication on the foundation design of park enclave, Chak Shehzad, Islamabad BY Faisal Mushtaq Saqib Pervez Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Bahria University, Islamabad 2012 GEOTECHNICAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL AND ITS IMPLICATION ON THE FOUNDATION DESIGN OF PARK ENCLAVE, CHAK SHEHZAD, ISLAMABAD A thesis submitted to Bahria University, Islamabad in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of BS in Geology. FAISAL MUSHTAQ SAQIB PERVEZ Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Bahria University, Islamabad 2012 1 ABSTRACT Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan is a planned city constructed since 1960 at the foot of the Margalla Hills just north of the old city of Rawalpindi. Expert engineering is required for construction purposes because of increasing population of both Islamabad and Rawalpindi. This has resulted in ever-increasing demands of shelter for residence and other purposes. The present research focuses on the geo-technical investigations outcome carried out by Earth Services, Islamabad in Chak Shahzad, Islamabad. The test samples were collected from different locations. Field and laboratory tests were performed on selected samples in the geo-technical laboratory to evaluate their geotechnical properties and their results have been compiled. The standard penetration test data reveals that N-values vary to minimum of 16 at shallow depths to a maximum of 52 at greater depth. Geo-technical laboratory analyses for the representative soil samples have also been discussed. Grain size analysis data exhibit that gravel ranges from 0% to 30 %, sand ranges from 60 to 70%, and silt 10 to 15%. The natural moisture content varies from 3.54% to 16.67%.
