Abstract
Years of regional instability
underpinned by decades of poor governance have shaped the
crisis unraveling in the north western border areas of
Pakistan. Marginalization and inequity are sustained in the
Federally Administered Tribal Area (FATA) through current
legislation, and in both FATA and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (KP)
province by underdevelopment. The life saving humanitarian,
recovery and longer-term development efforts of the federal
and provincial governments, the military, humanitarian
agencies, donors and international financial institutions
(IFIs) continue to be enormously necessary, but not
sufficient to transform the situation and reverse the
support for violent change. To assist in tackling this, the
Government of Pakistan requested support with the
preparation of a Post-Crisis Needs Assessment (PCNA)
resulting in a peace building strategy for FATA and KP. The
goal of the PCNA is to produce a helpful, programmatic,
coherent and sequenced peace building strategy for the
Government of Pakistan that delivers the agreed vision
within ten years.
