In order to compensate for the said consequences and to promote regional stability, a five-year initiative “Refugee Affected and Hosting Areas” (RAHA) has been initiated as a One UN programme partnering with the Government of Pakistan, International Donors and implementing partners. After the large scale repatriation since 2002, 1.7 million Afghans still remain in Pakistan and the programme aims to ensure their peaceful co-existence with the local communities in Pakistan until the situation in Afghanistan becomes conducive for their return. RAHA is a component of the Disaster Risk Management Joint Programme with an overall objective to improve livelihoods, rehabilitate the environment and enhance social cohesion within communities of refugee-affected and hosting areas. The programme has been conceived on the basis of two need assessments jointly conducted by UNDP and UNHCR in the target districts. UNDP is the administrative while UNHCR is the convening agent of the programme. The programme is being implemented in 28 districts, most of them in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK). The programme has been developed to substantially improve the standard of living of over 1 million Pakistanis who have, or who are still, hosting Afghans and will also ensure a predictable, safe stay, with documentation, for Afghans in Pakistan. Crucially, it will strengthen the Pakistan Government’s governance and public service delivery and enhance social cohesion between existing communities in light of the Government’s Afghan Management Strategy. RAHA programme has been initiated in 2009 and various donors (Government of Japan, German Goverment, US State Department, UNDP, UNHCR, and Ministry of SAFRON) have funded the programme. The Government of Japan was the main donor and has funded USD 22 Million earmarked for 2010. Annual ReportAnnual (RAHA) Programme and Hosting Areas 2010 | Refugee Affected 03 Executive Summary Pakistan has been hosting 3 million Afghan refugees since 1979; residing in about 340 camps located mainly in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) and Balochistan; which has jeopardized the existing civic amenities in the refugees affected and hosting areas. 1.7 million registered Afghans are still residing in Pakistan. RAHA aims at promoting regional stability through improved livelihood, environmental rehabilitation and enhanced social cohesion among refugees and local communities. It covers UCs/villages in 28 districts under the programme, mostly located in KPK and Balochistan having highest incidence of poverty, severe environmental degradation, food deficit and lowest human development indices. This report covers the progress of RAHA programme for the period from March 2010 to June 2011.
