Islamabad : King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) has successfully concluded the second phase of the “Economic Empowerment of Vulnerable Households in Pakistan through Livestock Provision Project.” Under this completed phase, 1,000 vulnerable households in the districts of Swat, Swabi, Haripur, and Mansehra were supported through the provision of comprehensive poultry livelihood packages.
Each beneficiary family received 25 poultry birds along with a complete poultry kit comprising 50 kg of feed, two sets of feeders, one drinker, an egg tray, and protective mesh. In addition, a total of 40 structured training sessions on poultry management and income generation were conducted with technical support from the Livestock Department, equipping beneficiaries with essential skills to sustainably manage small-scale poultry enterprises.
The project was implemented by the Peace and Development Organization (PADO) in close coordination with the Relief, Rehabilitation and Settlement Department (RRSD), PDMA Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and the local district administrations. The initiative aimed to enhance economic resilience, improve household nutrition, and strengthen food security among vulnerable communities across the four targeted districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
With the successful completion of this phase, the project has contributed to promoting self-reliance, dignified income generation, and long-term livelihood sustainability, reaffirming KSrelief’s continued commitment to supporting vulnerable populations and fostering inclusive economic development across Pakistan.
