The Programme for Poverty Reduction (PPR) was financed by the Government of Italy (GoI) through the Directorate General for Development Cooperation (DGCS) of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (DGCS/MAECI) and the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS). PPR was implemented by PPAF in close collaboration with the Italian Coordination Office in Pakistan, the World Bank (untied component) and through 17 Partner Organizations (POs). The aim of PPR was to contribute to poverty reduction in rural areas of 14 districts of Baluchistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and the newly merged districts (NMD, formerly known as the Federally Administered Tribal Areas/FATA). These districts are amongst the most vulnerable and underserved areas of the country and suffer from multi-dimensional poverty as well as safety and security challenges. The development goal of PPR was “population poverty reduction through the creation of sustainable conditions of social and economic development, including income and production capacity increases.”
