The Pakistan Community Support Project (PCSP) has become a model of community-driven development for the uplift of the rural communities residing in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, including the Merged Areas. The development cooperation under the project between the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the World Bank has enabled the community members, government officials, and project management in identifying the priority needs of the citizens, including women, youth, and marginalized groups, through participatory bottom-up planning. The community-led infrastructure activities have been further amplified to improve the lives and livelihoods of the communities by engaging them in development initiatives which are directly benefiting them, under the benefits sharing feature of the CASA-1000 Project.
