PAKISTAN

Hey, the Scottish Government has awarded CED money to help people in Pakistan. We've been supporting PVDP ( www.pvdpsindh.org ) for a long time but this will be the first large project we've done with them for about a decade. Details of the project can be found under "Pakistan" in the CED website (www.ced.org.uk).


Ian Rankin and Jonathan Appleby leave on 7th January to discuss the project in its early stages. PVDP is an experienced NGO so we hope they'll be able to manage the project closely without a lot of support from ourselves. We've only budgeted a few overseas trips; this means more funds will go to meeting a very demanding list of targets on the ground; again see Pakistan for information.
