Aga Khan Rural Support Program in Pakistan: A Second Interim Evaluation

摘要

The Aga Khan Rural Support Program (AKRSP) was conceived as a new approach to fostering the development of rural people. The purpose of the program is, first, to involve the people of the three districts in which it operates in their own development, and second, to provide a model of rural development applicable in other settings. The report introduces the framework for rural development, the approach to the evaluation, reviews the program's status and performance, describes the agricultural production program, the women's program and the information program, and discusses future directions that the program might take.
