Operating in all 34 provinces with a total of 716 staff, NABDP has further strengthened its presence this year at the provincial level through distribution of projects, hiring provincial community mobilizers, and opening new provincial offices. The joint partnership between the Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (MRRD) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), has continued to achieve results in reducing poverty and diversifying livelihood opportunities through the activities of NABDP. The following achievements were made in 2011: Component 1: Local Institutional Development The mobilization, institutionalization, and capacity development of District Development Assemblies (DDAs) was supported throughout 2011 by the Local Institutional Development Department (LIDD) in order to strengthen local governance and the delivery of development activities.

This year’s elections brought 1,745 men (71%) and 722 women (29%) to participate in DDAs. 111 DDAs (1,749 men, 931 women) were trained in Capacity Development modules in 11 provinces this year. 79 District Information Centres (DICs) are operating, 63 of which were established this year. 113 DDAs newly received the provision of Grant in Aid, while 123 received ongoing support.

  • Internal Displacement Updates
    ANNEXE 1 CONFLICT INDUCED INTERNAL DISPLACEMENT Monthly Update January 2012 The trend on increasing conflict-induced internal displacement continued through January 2012 with the displacement of an estimated 6,594 persons (1,104 families) across the country. As compared to December 2011, this is a decrease of 50%. The data shows an increase in reporting of IDPs in the West which is a significant high (82%), while the Eastern region remained the same as last month. No significant displacements were reported from the South-east. No internal displacement was reported from the South, North and Central regions in January. The main causes of displacement are recorded as armed conflict between Anti Government Elements AGE/ Armed Opposition Groups AOG, IM/ANA; Intimidation/ threats/ harassment by AGEs; Tribal conflict and targeted persecution. The total IDP population in the country is estimated at 447,524 persons/ 70,209 families as of 31 January 2012. The data is gathered from UNHCR and DoRR sources and these estimates do not include IDPs scattered in urban and semi-urban areas as well as locations where UNHCR/ DORR/ IDP Task Force members do not have access. I. Key Protection and Assistance Needs: • Delay in identification, assessment and timely assistance (due to limited humanitarian access) remains a critical challenge; • Access to basic protection in displacement – i.e personal and physical security and shelter are critical needs; • Regular tracking of IDP caseloads is a challenge due to frequent secondary and tertiary displacements; • Livelihoods in displacement (esp for prolonged displacements) is a challenge and its absence can lead to secondary displacement; • Access to education and emergency health care (for all & also for prolonged displacement - including other services); • Tracking the vulnerability of already vulnerable persons/ families (migration of male members to urban areas for work, hence more female headed households).

  • Old Habits, New Consequences Old Habits, New Khalid Homayun Consequences Nadiri Pakistan’S Posture Toward Afghanistan Since 2001
    Old Habits, New Consequences Old Habits, New Khalid Homayun Consequences Nadiri Pakistan’s Posture toward Afghanistan since 2001 Since the terrorist at- tacks of September 11, 2001, Pakistan has pursued a seemingly incongruous course of action in Afghanistan. It has participated in the U.S. and interna- tional intervention in Afghanistan both by allying itself with the military cam- paign against the Afghan Taliban and al-Qaida and by serving as the primary transit route for international military forces and matériel into Afghanistan.1 At the same time, the Pakistani security establishment has permitted much of the Afghan Taliban’s political leadership and many of its military command- ers to visit or reside in Pakistani urban centers. Why has Pakistan adopted this posture of Afghan Taliban accommodation despite its nominal participa- tion in the Afghanistan intervention and its public commitment to peace and stability in Afghanistan?2 This incongruence is all the more puzzling in light of the expansion of insurgent violence directed against Islamabad by the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), a coalition of militant organizations that are independent of the Afghan Taliban but that nonetheless possess social and po- litical links with Afghan cadres of the Taliban movement. With violence against Pakistan growing increasingly indiscriminate and costly, it remains un- clear why Islamabad has opted to accommodate the Afghan Taliban through- out the post-2001 period. Despite a considerable body of academic and journalistic literature on Pakistan’s relationship with Afghanistan since 2001, the subject of Pakistani accommodation of the Afghan Taliban remains largely unaddressed. Much of the existing literature identiªes Pakistan’s security competition with India as the exclusive or predominant driver of Pakistani policy vis-à-vis the Afghan Khalid Homayun Nadiri is a Ph.D.

CONTEXT Concern Worldwide along with International Organization for Migration, UNHCR and Shelter Cluster has undertaken a joint assessment of the situation of shelters in the severely affected communities due to landslides and floods. This assessment report was part of the shelter cluster’s presentation to the Honorable Deputy Minister for Rehabilitation and Rural Development on 6th April 2014. The meeting outcomes was that, it recognizes about more than 8,000 families who are severely affected by floods and landslides and their houses are completely destroyed (considered as Category A) and there is about more than 7,000 families need shelter support before this winter. The existing approach of the MRRD and the Shelter cluster envisaged in its Shelter Strategy have limitations includes, availability of funding, very little time and huge demand for shelters. To meet this huge demand, there is need for exploring other shelter options for these communities. The study report of Concern which has come out with different shelter options can be further explored with the affected communities across the flood affected areas by Shelter Cluster partners and IOM to get exact case load for different shelter options.
