The Rehabilitation and Reintegration Program for TDPs of (erstwhile) FATA is a five-years long 10 million EUR German government funded development assistance project which aims to improve the living conditions in five merged districts of KP including Khyber, Orakzai, Kurram, South Waziristan and North Waziristan.

Local civil society is strengthened and their participation in decision making at the local level is tangibly enhanced.
