Executive Director’s Report Making Communities Empowered In our continued crusade against poverty, the reporting year has remained important for many reasons. Firstly, different impact evaluation studies have confirmed that PAF has helped to raise per capita consumption, average income, food sufficiency, child schooling and access to services and women's empowerment. PAF has also created and improved community assets in rural areas benefiting large number of the rural population. These findings are the results of a comprehensive and independent follow- up study done in 2010 in the 6 sample districts conducted by TU and two separate studies on social re-assessment and revolving fund by PAF itself. Secondly, PAF was able to receive the additional financing of US$ 75 million to strengthen its impact on the lives of the poor and cover additional poor households under the programme. The government of Nepal and WB signed a grant agreement on July 13, 2011 for the additional funding for the ongoing second phase of PAF. Also, PAF has added more strategic partners during the year as several Memorandum of Understandings (MoUs) have also been signed with different organizations at central level to facilitate different task as well as to facilitate collaboration in implementation of sub-projects at community level with complementarities. Seven years on the ground, a total of 17,898 community organizations (COs) of poor are registered with PAF, out of which PAF has already inked agreements with 16,819 COs. In their bid to sustainability and institutional growth, communities have also begun to build federations, network of COs and co-operatives. So far, 53 Multi-purpose co-operatives and 547 federation of COs have already been formed. The PAF supported COs are currently pursuing 16, 576 Income Generation and 3039 Infrastructure related sub-projects till the end of the reporting period. Reaching Out to the Poor PAF is now currently working in 40 poorest districts defined by the Central Bureau of Statistics while additional 19 districts are also covered under separate innovotive window and Nepal Development Market Place (NDM). Among the 40 districts, PAF is working in 71 per cent of total VDCs (87 per cent in 25 districts and 50 per cent in 15 districts). All five districts of the Karnali zone are covered by the programme. Till date, programme has reached 134 VDCs i.e. 100 per cent of 134 VDCs in Karnali and benefitted 54,329 poor households while Programme is covering Ten (10) districts in Terai (Mahottari, Rautahat, Sarlahi, Kapilbastu, Siraha, Bara, Bardiya, Dhanusa, Parsa, Saptari) and benefitted 159,647HHs covering 590 VDCs (i.e. 17 per cent of poor HHs and 52 per cent of VDCs). Out of 146 border VDCs of Kapilbastu, Mahottari, Rautahat, Sarlahi and Siraha among above Terai districts, PAF program coveres 95 VDCs (i.e. 65 per cent) and benifitted 20,015 HHs Further, innnovative pocket programme is still continued in Makawanpur, Morang, Kanchanpur and Chitwan districts. It has reached additional 13,376 poor households in 48 VDCs in those districts. In an overall scenario, PAF has covered 470,021 poor HHs as CO member beneficiaries, among which a total of 65.8 per cent members falls under hardcore poor category (food sufficiency less than 3 months among other criteria fixed by the communities), 25.41 per cent members falls under medium poor category (food sufficiency more than 3 months but less than 6 months among other criteria set by the communities), 8.6 per cent members falls under poor category (food sufficiency more than 6 months but less than a year among other criteria set by the communities) and 0.2 per cent members falls under marginal “non-poor” Category. Likewise, CO member households constitutes 29 per cent Dalit, 28 per cent Janajati, 3 per cent Muslim, 30 per cent Brahmin/ Chhetri and 10 per cent other caste and ethnicity. Gender-wise, 74 per cent are female members in COs. Similarly, the key position holders in the community organisation such as president, treasurer, secretary constitutes, 34 per cent Dalit, 27 per cent Janajati, and 2 per cent Muslims and 29 per cent Brahman/Chettri, and 8 per cent from other caste and ethnicity.
