Project Scope

Bacha Khan Poverty Alleviation Programme (BKPAP), a multi-sectoral initiative, aimed at alleviating rural poverty through reviving livelihoods, improving human and productive assets and developing government’s capacity for pro-poor development with a particular focus on the most vulnerable including women. The programme was a joint initiative of Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sarhad Rural Support Programme. With a financial outlay of PKR 1 billion the programme was envisaged to benefit up-to 1.206 million populations, directly and indirectly, in selected four districts (Battagram, Mardan, Karak and Upper Dir) of NWFP. The programme implementation started in 2009 in collaboration with government line agencies at provincial and district level and since then made significant achievements in all major components.

The evaluation aimed to assess the immediate impacts, relevance, efficiency, effectiveness    and    sustainability of the programme interventions towards expected outcomes envisaged in PC I/financing agreement. Also, Ile evaluation was to validate achievements against targets of the annual work-plan and highlight unexpected results (positive or negative) and missed opportunities.

The evaluation would present key findings, draw major   lessons, and provide a set of clear and forward-looking options leading to strategic and actionable recommendations for SRSP-BK PAP specifically and Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in general. The recommendations of the evaluation were to aim to further improve the poverty targeting and packages, strategies, implementation mechanism, and management efficiency of prospective government programmes and projects.
