UNHCR-PPAF collaborate to empower Afghan refugee families with sustainable livelihoods

The Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees are partnering to provide productive livelihood assets to Afghan refugee families in Pakistan.

The program, now in its fourth phase, is committed to empowering over 3,000 Afghan refugee families residing in six refugee camps in Districts Nowshera, Quetta, Pishin, and Islamabad.

The initiative aims to enhance the self-reliance and livelihoods of Afghan refugees by equipping them with transferable skills applicable in both Pakistan and Afghanistan upon their return.

In the initial distribution phase, a total of one thousand two hundred livelihood assets are being distributed across the Turkmen, Khesgi, and Akora Khattak camps in District Nowshera of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
