Why was CPC/CFS established?

Jobs Creating Developing Society (JCDS) is a public interest organization. It is working for decent livelihood and human rights. It was formed as registered organization in 2000 to address the issues of poverty, inequality and human rights. JCDS is an implementing partner of UNICEF, providing protective services to flood affected children in district Charsadda. It has established twenty five child protection centres/ child friendly spaces providing joyful learning opportunities and psycho social support to flood affected children in district Charsadda. All these centres are the services hubs regarding identification of child protection issues, referral, service provision and follow up through specially designed service mechanism. Child Rights, health and hygiene and life skill based education are the part of components for children and adolescents in CPC/CFS. The community has been involved through child protection committees, facilitating them in referral mechanism to link them with available services.

Services provided to target group including JCDS. (Qualitative in 01 paragraph)

It was an unfold emergency and the humanitarian community responded actively for sustained services. The response was slow at first because the people did not comprehend the seriousness of situation. There were a number of services provided to the target group especially by JCDS and other services providers.

7. Formation of Child Councils

JCDS staff learnt a number of new skills during the trainings, workshops and sessions conducted by JCDS management. During the stay at CPC the staff has learnt how to tackle different issues.

A.3 Describe implementation constraints and action taken. Constraints Unavailability of establishing CPC Action Taken space for With the help of a local representative of JCDS, we found the space for CPC/CFS. Unavailability of water in the CPC Through the efforts JCDS staff a hand pump was fitted in the CPC through SAP-PK. Unavailability of washroom Through the efforts JCDS staff, washroom was build in the CPC through SAP-PK.

A.4 Describe key learning from the project Team work, patience, empathy, documentation, issues identification and resolving, affection are some of key things that JCDS staff has learnt from the project. A.5 OVERALL RECOMMENDATION AND SUGGESTION It is a unique achievement for JCDS to run such big project. Establishing of more than twenty five CPCs in all over Charsadda and managing them was an uphill task but with the grace of almighty and the efforts of JCDS management and especially the coordinator and Director worked really hard to accomplish this task. Their hard work and commitment was really great because we have found them working day and night throughout these six months. They always created ease for their staff member and subordinates. With their positive approach, they always solved very serious problems without affecting any misshapen during the project. They always responded rationally reached to the core of the problems very quickly. They visited frequently to each and every CPC throughout Charsadda and provided the best guideline to the staff members. As we know that an organization is a social entity that is goal directed, designed, structured and co-ordinated actively in a system and it is linked to the external environment. So working under team and group, effective communication network among team or group member, team based leadership are the most important factors of a successful organization. So to accomplish all these tasks is a difficult task to perform for the management and during this process some the role of decision making is very important and we have to emphasise on this specific factor very firstly because the primary work of management is to take decisions and bold decisions. The work of management is to give opportunities to those people in the organization who have some specific skills and backgrounds and fit those people on their right

positions. Even after this the organization can achieve its goals and objectives very easily. The organization has some goals and objectives specifically and generally and for those goals the organization make strategies and the most important thing is to compare your goals and your capabilities, if they are compatible so you can achieve your goal easily but if they are not so it cant. You cant make your organization a training institute and perform those experiments which are in contrast with your aim. We want our organization to be successful and perform excellent results but we have to take a cursory glance on the experiences of the previous projects and not to repeat those thing which are harmful for the organizations existence. To sum up we can say that we have to support the effective innovations and to create value for our team members and the general public. JCDS is our own organization and we never worked for some material benefits, we always worked on missionary basis. It is a challenge because material is also necessary for every one but we dont have to make it our primary aim. God bless JCDS and its team and management and we are always here to serve for our organization without any selfish aims and personal benefits.
