IDPs represent the part of Pakistan's population that has been most vulnerable to insurgent domination, that has suffered most from counter-insurgency military operations, and that is most strategically located in areas neighboring eastern Afghanistan where U.S. troops are currently in action. If this segment of the population were to perceive the GOP as failing to respond adequately to its needs and as continuing to be incapable of providing basic governmental services, the future vulnerability to insurgent inroads would be a major setback for the overall Afghanistan-Pakistan counter-insurgency effort. To provide relief to the population directly affected by the insurgency, the GOP established a special program of cash support to IDP families as part of an overall IDP program. Given the reduction in GOP tax revenues resulting from the recent economic crisis, the GOP needed external funding to complete the cash support. <br />
<h4>Results To Date</h4>USAID was able to verify through an assessment of this program that 98% of IDPs received the ATM/Debit card and, likewise, 99% of them received cash through this card to help support their basic needs like food and domestic assets.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><u><b><span style="font-size: large;">Mission Overview In Pakistan <span style="color: red;">USAID</span></span></b></u></div><div style="color: #002a6c;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #002a6c;"><b>Overview</b></div>The United States sees a prosperous, secure, and stable Pakistan as vital to regional peace and security. As part of its commitment to the Pakistani people, the U.S. Government, through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), has provided nearly $2 billion in assistance since 2009. U.S. support is helping strengthen Pakistan’s energy sector, increase the educational and economic opportunities available to Pakistan’s citizens, improve the provision of health care services, and meet critical infrastructure needs in remote mountain areas. USAID also provides substantial relief and recovery assistance, such as when floods devastated the country in 2010.<br />
USAID programs in Pakistan are focused on five key areas: energy, economic growth, stabilization, education, and health. To ensure that programs are responsive to local needs and have a sustainable impact, USAID has adopted a government-to-government model, in which the majority of programs are implemented through national and provincial governments. USAID also works extensively with local contractors and other indigenous institutions—an approach that ensures programs are aligned with local priorities and build local capacity. Two cross-cutting themes—good governance and gender equity—inform all program design and serve as key measurements of success.<br />

Energy is essential to economic growth and political stability. Efficient energy management facilitates trade, enhances agricultural and industrial production, supports job creation, and increases opportunities for citizens to benefit from economic growth. The U.S. Government, through USAID, is partnering with the Government of Pakistan, the private sector, and other donors to increase the Pakistan's energy supplies, improve energy use efficiency, modernize equipment, and provide needed technical support and training.<br />
<b>ECONOMIC GROWTH</b><br />
Economic development is a critical partner to long-term stability. Our Economic Growth Program seeks to secure a self-sustaining future for Pakistan by nurturing competitive enterprises, efficient market environments, effective government policies, and business opportunities for women. In particular, USAID works with governmental and other partners to strengthen Pakistan’s agricultural sector, so it can meet domestic food needs while generating export revenues. These initiatives are spurring broad-based economic growth and improving the earning power of people throughout the country.<br />
<b>STABILIZATION</b><br />

Stable communities are less vulnerable to terrorism and other forms of extremism. USAID's stabilization efforts in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and Khyber Pakhtunkwa Province are critical to long-term regional stability and U.S. security interests. The program seeks to enhance the legitimacy and writ of the Government of Pakistan while improving the economic and social conditions in remote communities affected by conflict. In particular, the program is helping local authorities meet basic infrastructure needs in villages and to support rule-of-law activities.<br />
<b>EDUCATION</b><br />
Education is a top priority for families in Pakistan, but about 20 million school-age children do not receive a basic education. The U.S. Government, through USAID, is helping ensure that Pakistan's children have access to a quality basic education as well as generous opportunities for higher education. Current projects focus on supporting teacher education, expanding the use of technology in the classroom, providing training to administrators in budgeting and finance, providing scholarships, and rehabilitating and reconstructing schools.<br />
<b>HEALTH</b><br />

Since 2003 USAID has worked closely with Pakistan's Ministry of Health, the private sector, and other institutions and donors to improve the health and well-being of the people of Pakistan. Our programs target the poorest and most vulnerable areas, where communities often lack access to comprehensive and reliable health service delivery systems. USAID's health programs help by increasing access to family planning services, improving maternal and child healthcare, controlling major infectious diseases, providing safe drinking water, and strengthening the capacity of key institutions.<br />
<b>CROSS-CUTTING THEMES: GOOD GOVERNANCE AND GENDER EQUITY</b><br />
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/images/budget-sm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="U.S. Assistance to Pakistan 2007-2010 - click to enlarge" border="0" height="200" src="../images/budget-sm.jpg" width="200" /></a>Accountable government and women's development are imperative for Pakistan’s future. For this reason, USAID incorporates a concern for good governance and gender equality into all of its programs and success indicators. In addition, several targeted programs foster democratic institutions and women's development. These include the Gender Equity Project, the Municipal Services Program, and the Political Parties Development Project.<br />

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has provided nearly $7 billion to assist Pakistani government in achieving its important development goals since the start of its operations in 1961.<br />
During the 1950s, the United States focused on helping the newly- independent Pakistan overcome the economic consequences of its partition from India. This assistance laid the foundation for Pakistan's future agricultural and industrial growth. It provided funds, materials for infrastructure and technical support to ease skill shortage and food.<br />

In the 1960s, U.S. assistance represented over half of all foreign aid to Pakistan, covering one-third of Pakistan's development budget and financing half its import bill. From this point onward, USAID delivered the majority of U.S. Government development assistance to Pakistan. It supported Pakistan's efforts to boost agriculture and rapidly expand its industrial sector. The United States invested heavily in water, power, transportation, and communications.<br />
During the 1970s, the United States turned its attention back to agriculture. In addition to helping Pakistan increase its fertilizer production, U.S. assistance helped Pakistan import fertilizer and improve its water and irrigation systems. USAID worked with Pakistani agricultural scientists and engineers to develop water and irrigation systems on farms. USAID joined other international donors to finance two of the largest dams in the world: Tarbela and Mangla. The dams continue to make significant contributions to Pakistan's energy and agricultural sectors today. In the same period, the U.S. also supported nutrition research, malaria control, population planning, and health care for rural areas.<br />
The 1982-1987 phase of U.S. assistance to Pakistan was a milestone in U.S.-Pakistan relations. Cooperation between the two countries was close as they negotiated a $1.62 billion program in 1981. Pakistani institutions carried out most of the activities. Almost all projects were national in scope, with activities in all four provinces. To help meet pressing needs in less developed parts of the country, USAID funded several region-specific "area development" projects at the government's request. The goal was to respond to the priorities set by the government in its annual and five-year development plans.<br />
<br />
From 1988-1993, the United States provided an additional $2.28 billion for development projects. $480 million was used to import needed agricultural items. The rest was in grants. During this period, USAID continued to build on successful programs begun in earlier phases. USAID also invested in expanding private investment in Pakistan, guarantees for housing loans to strengthen the housing market, mobilizing shelter resources and the Institutional Excellence Project.<br />
From 1991-2001, US Government imposed nuclear non-proliferation sanctions, therefore, under a humanitarian assistance regulation [P.L. 106-429, Sec. 541(a)], USAID worked with, and through, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) on narcotics control, basic education and community-based learning; literacy and skills development; reproductive health (including family planning), maternal and child health care; income earning activities; strengthening of local NGOs and community organizations; and policy advocacy at the national, provincial, and local levels.<br />
After a eight-year pause, USAID reopened its Mission in Pakistan in July 2002. The agency's strategy, developed in consultation with Pakistani counterparts, focuses on education, health, governance and economic growth. Currently, USAID has direct funding relationships with some 40 partner organizations covering all elements of the USAID portfolio in Pakistan. Nearly half of the projects implemented by those partner organizations are headed by Pakistanis.<br />
In addition to its core development strategy, USAID has played an important role in helping Pakistan respond to humanitarian disasters with relief, recovery, and reconstruction assistance. First in response to the devastating October 2005 earthquake that killed approximately 74,000 people USAID helped the people of the earthquake-affected areas "build back better" with new earthquake resistant schools and health facilities. Assistance to that region is also increasing economic opportunities. Then in 2009 following the conflict in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, USAID provided humanitarian assistance to the internally displaced people who left their homes by the millions to escape the violence and later committed funds to reconstruction projects that would restore infrastructure damaged in the conflict. Most recently, USAID played a critical role after heavy monsoon flooding struck Pakistan in July 2010, by providing nearly $550 million for relief and recovery efforts. Complementing emergency rescue operations by the U.S. military, USAID's assistance focused on providing shelter, food, water, health services, and essential supplies to affected communities, including displaced families. At the beginning relief efforts focused on staving off a major health crisis. As the floods receded USAID transitioned to providing early recovery assistance so that people could return home, resume their lives, and avoid longer-term suffering.<br />
Today, USAID, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of State, focuses assistance to Pakistan in five priority sectors: energy, economic growth, stabilization, education, and health within the current strategic and policy framework. Focusing our assistance in these five key areas will increase a national high visibility impact and effectiveness, as well as accelerate implementation. <br />

With the support of the <a href="http://www.usaid.gov/pk/about/klb.html">Enhanced Partnership with Pakistan Act of 2009</a> (also referred to sometimes as the "Kerry-Lugar-Berman Bill", for the co-sponsors, Senator John Kerry (D-Massachusetts), Senator Richard Lugar (R-Indiana) and Representative Howard Berman (D-California)), USAID aims to strengthen the Government of Pakistan's capacity to effectively provide services to its citizens and to address the country's urgent development needs, and to deepen a strategic partnership with the Pakistani people and their government. By supporting Pakistanis to create a stable and prosperous country, U.S. assistance will have a greater and more sustainable impact over the long-term.Docstoc Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12649378793630761241noreply@blogger.com0
