Introduction of the Implementation partners

1. Federal Foreign Office (FFO) German Embassy

In 1970, the foundation stone for both the Chancery and the Ambassador's Residence was laid by former Ambassador Norbert Berger. The buildings were inaugurated in 1972. The Embassy is located within the "Diplomatic Enclave" - close to buildings of the Pakistani government.

Development cooperation between Pakistan and Germany: Development cooperation between Pakistan and Germany goes back to 1961, with the funding volume to date total some 2.5 billion Euros. Pakistan was thus one of Germany's first partner countries. The regional focus of this cooperation has traditionally been the north-western part of the country. Germany


COMPLETION REPORT

is one of the few donors to have its own implementing structures. It is active in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Province (KP) and is one of only a few of Pakistan's partners to be implementing measures in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) along the border with Afghanistan. Individual measures are also carried out in Gilgit-Baltistan, Azad Jammu Kashmir and the Punjab.

Projects funded by the Federal Foreign Office: Whereas most of the cooperation programmes are funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by German organizations such as GIZ or KfW, there are various individual projects implemented by Pakistani organizations which are funded directly by the Federal Foreign Office.

Germany supports community-based stabilization and multisectoral livelihood programme: On 3 May 2013, Ambassador Dr. Cyrill Nunn signed an agreement with Foundation for Integrated Development Action (FIDA) over 555,000 Euro (approx. 70 million PKR).

The project aim is to develop community physical infrastructure, the capacity of local

communities through trainings and providing livelihood packages to diversify their incomes to

improve the standards of living and alleviate the poverty.

2. Introduction of FIDA

The Foundation for Integrated Development Action (FIDA) was founded in 2004 by Faiysal Ali Khan and his grandfather, the late Brigadier Sadiq Nawaz Khan Awan in response to the years of government neglect and resulting human suffering in Dera Ismail Khan and its surrounding areas in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The district was chosen as a starting point for the founders to give something back to their ancestral homeland, but also because of its multi-ethnic, multi-linguistic composition and its location as a crossroads neighbored by Punjab, Balochistan and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). These factors made the area a challenging, yet deserving, place to begin development work. FIDA has now expanded its work across Khyber Pukhtunkhwa and South Waziristan Agency in FATA and works with a wide variety of donors, partners and communities.

FIDA began work over 10 years ago in Dera Ismail Khan and Tank in Khyber Pukhtunkhwa (KP). Since then, FIDA's geographic reach has expanded to South Waziristan in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan and other districts of KP, including Lakki, Bannu, Karak, Kohat and Chitral. Taking a long-term approach to development and social change in this region, FIDA aims to act as a bridge between traditional and modern systems of governance and society. While operating conceptually on an 80 to 120 year timeline, FIDA works towards its long-term objectives in measurable 5-year blocks.

Cooperations and Facilitation: One of the key elements in FIDA's approach to development is cooperation. An integral part of this cooperation includes partnerships with donor agencies and other NGOs. It is FIDA’s belief that sharing of resources, knowledge and expertise will lead to a more efficient and sustainable system of development. FIDA has therefore positioned itself as an entry point for organizations wishing to do work in the districts of operations. This is a significant role in areas where a major challenge of development lies in establishing relationships, trust and credibility. FIDA has already established these critical elements and can


COMPLETION REPORT

provide the resources and access needed to implement development projects. In an attempt to reach as many people as possible, FIDA works with a wide variety of communities and groups throughout the region. FIDA also works to create links and partnerships with neighboring districts, in order to strengthen and replicate the work that is being done.

Long term vision: A cornerstone of FIDA’s existence has been a long term approach to development. Therefore, the first five years of operation were viewed as a “research and development” period, allowing time in the field to understand the traditional mechanisms, structures and cultures of the areas, as well as the development needs of the communities. Building meaningful relationships and maintaining integrity of process are imperative when working in areas that are often hostile to NGOs, suspicious of outsiders and vulnerable to security issues. This strategy enabled FIDA to respond quickly and effectively to the displacement caused by military operations in South Waziristan in 2009, acting as the sole implementing partner for the Provincial Government, UNHCR and others and assisting over 270,000 individuals. FIDA continued this emergency relief and rehabilitation work with the displaced communities and did so again after the unprecedented floods that occurred in 2010 and 2011.

Holistic Approach: FIDA believes in a multi-sector, community-driven approach to development. Rather than dealing with single issues in isolation, FIDA formulates comprehensive strategies that help communities address with their concerns holistically. FIDA also works to build and strengthen the capacity of Community Organizations (COs) and Village Organizations (VOs), thereby creating social transformation this is meaningful and sustainable.

Vision: A society built around good governance and democratic ideals, supported by a sound

economy and a sustainable use of resources.

Mission: To mobilize and build the capacity of existing political and social structures and to act

as a link between civil society and marginalized communities, thereby empowering all

stakeholders to achieve their identified development goals in a sustainable and replicable

manner.
