Denmark's Development Framework

The designed development framework consists of three majorcomponents.

Component 1:

Stabilization and Early Recovery of border areas with Afghanistan. 
This multilateral channel will support the Government of Pakistan in
restoring infrastructure, services and livelihoods in the country’s 
conflict-affected border areas. This will be done by supporting:

•  Early Recovery Education Services in FATA, Pakistan (UNICEF), and
• Contribution to Multi Donor Trust Fund for Reconstruction and
• Development in Pakistan’s Nord-Western Region (World Bank).

Component 2:

Civil Society Support Facility in support of good governance, human 
rights and gender. This bilateral mechanism is supposed to work mainly 
with civil society, but it may also be possible (and desirable) to establish 
partnerships and support with statutory bodies.

Component 3:

Global Stabilisation Fund support. The overall focus of this component 
is security and the justice sector reform in Pakistan.

Program Objectives

The development and immediate objectives of the framework follow
identified strategic needs in Pakistan.

The development and stabilization objective is:

 Danish interventions support the “demand side” of democracy in Pakistan, and stabilisation and livelihoods in FATA and KPK.

Immediate objectives

The programme has three immediate objectives linked to the three major
components:

•  Enhanced recovery and reconstruction in FATA and KPK. 
• Democratic processes and human rights strengthening through civil
  society support.
• Security situation to be improved by supporting security and justice 
  sector reform.

Gender mainstreaming is an integrated part of all of the designed
programs. The gender concern will be cross cutting and aimed at
promoting the protection and participation of women and girls,
equitable service delivery, and gendered leadership roles and
capacities of state and non-state actors.
