Objectives, Strategy & Approach of NRSP

Objective

To foster a countrywide network of grassroots level organizations to enable rural communities to plan, implement and manage developmental activities and programmes for the purpose of ensuring productive employment, alleviation of poverty and improvement in the quality of life.
Strategy To harness peoples potential to help themselves. Approach The people need social guidance to harness their potential to:-

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL INTRODUCING | NATIONAL RURAL SUPPORT PROGRAMME

Organize themselves as village level NGOs (CBOs) for pooling of resources, cutting down overheads, achieving economies of scale etc. Identify true and genuine activists from amongst the community. It is only they who can harness the potential of the people not outsiders.

Identify and prioritize what people are willing to undertake in terms of opportunities and needs but not demands.

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL INTRODUCING | NATIONAL RURAL SUPPORT PROGRAMME

Undertake feasibility of identified opportunities and needs in terms of peoples capacity, willingness, equity, sustainability, availability and requirement of resources. Facilitate the flow of required resources to the community; and Monitor, lobby and establish linkages between communities and other development agencies, such as government development departments, District Councils, Union Councils, donors.

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL

NRSP attempts to reach 38 million poor of Pakistan by persuading Government to allocate resources to set up support organizations. e.g PRSP, GBDO NRSP does not overlap or set up parallel organizations where support organizations exist. Rather it supports and strengthens such NGOs in their effort to foster a framework of village based NGOs (CBOs) or grassroots institutions Works on a national level

Organizational Setup
NRSP comprises:

A board of directors of volunteers A paid team of professionals and staff to act as a support organization to provide social guidance

A large cadre of grassroots level activists working

voluntarily or being remunerated by the communities themselves

A framework of grassroots institutions

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL INTRODUCING | NATIONAL RURAL SUPPORT PROGRAMME

Steps undertaken for Social Mobilization

1 Compilation of Benchmark data: Preparation of a Village

Profile It encompasses information on:

the prevalent socio-economic and demographic trends levels of education health, infrastructure, natural resources; imports and exports of the village; and the communities perception on the problems of utmost importance confronting them and past efforts to overcome them.

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL INTRODUCING | NATIONAL RURAL SUPPORT PROGRAMME

STEPS FOR SOCIAL MOBILIZATION

Preparation of Poverty Profile Communities themselves classify each household in the village into five categories:

Better Off Well to do Poor Very Poor Destitute

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL

Examples of Poverty indicators used for preparation of Poverty Profiles as perceived by the community
Details Landholding Tractor Bank balance Rich >10 acres irrigated Yes Upto 1 lac No Does not need credit for emergency needs Livestock House >10 <5 1-2 0 0 Small & mud Large & concrete Middle & concrete Small & concrete Small & concrete No Needs credit No Needs credit No Needs credit Middle <5 acres Poor 0 Very Poor 0 Destitute 0

but with insufficient

accommodation Transport Servants Regular income Yes, car or motorbike Yes Members of households in service/business No Yes No Shop, milkman farm worker No Daily wages No Zakat, occasional labour Yes, motorbike Yes, bicycle None None

HARNESSING PEOPLES POTENTIAL
