ISLAMABAD: The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) has successfully concluded the second phase of its project to economically empower vulnerable households in Pakistan through livestock provision, the Saudi charity said on Tuesday.
Under the second phase of the project, 1,000 vulnerable households in Pakistan’s Swat, Swabi, Haripur and Mansehra districts were supported through the provision of comprehensive poultry livelihood packages.
Each beneficiary family received 25 poultry birds along with a complete poultry kit, comprising 50 kilograms of feed, two sets of feeders, one drinker, an egg tray, and protective mesh, according to KSrelief.
“In addition, a total of 40 structured training sessions on poultry management and income generation were conducted with technical support from the Livestock Department, equipping beneficiaries with essential skills to sustainably manage small-scale poultry enterprises,” the Saudi charity said.
“The project was implemented by the Peace and Development Organization (PADO) in close coordination with the Relief, Rehabilitation and Settlement Department (RRSD), PDMA (Provincial Disaster Management Authority) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and the local district administrations.”
