Introduction
In order to gain a better understanding of the programmatic focus of the donor community and funding trends in Pakistan, a comprehensive mapping of donor activities and the development of donor profiles was undertaken. This compendium will support the donor community to promote overall donor coordination efforts in accordance with OECD DAC aid effectiveness and good donorship principles. It is hoped that improved knowledge of which donors are active in which sectors and parts of the country will help avoid duplication of efforts and allow potential synergies to be highlighted. The donor profiles will also serve to inform the UNs resource mobilization efforts.
In order to gain a holistic picture of the donor landscape, both development and humanitarian support is included in the profile. Information on loans as well as grants is included wherever possible. However, funding channeled through public diplomacy or political departments of embassies is not included. Where possible, the donor profiles include the sectors of engagement, geographical focus, type of funding, projects, implementing partners and over all investments. Not all donors have provided the same level of information, hence information disparities do exist.
It should be noted that this is a dynamic document. The donor profiles will be reviewed and updated on a regular basis in order to provide as up-to-date information as possible.
Methodology: A two-pronged methodology was adopted to gather the information on donor activities. In the first instance, a desk review of the existing information available on donor websites and donor profiles compiled by different UN agencies, funds and programmes was carried out. This information was then expanded upon and revised through conducting individual interviews and meetings with the donor organizations. The collaboration of all donors included in this compendium has been much appreciated. Based on the information collected, two categories of information are being compiled and documented:
1. A profile of each donor summarizing key programmatic focus as per their country programmes, sector focus, geographical presence, and funding priorities and allocations. 2. A complete compendium of donors programmes and funding (which is being compiled separately).
The mapping and profiles was carried out in two phases. In the first phase, the study focused on major traditional donors like the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Australian Aid for International Development (AusAID), Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the European Union (EU), the United Kingdoms Department for International Development (DfID), the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), Norway, the Netherlands, the Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the World Bank, which are presented in this document. In the second phase, other non-traditional donors, including, for example, the Gulf States, nonresident donors, INGOs, and leading private sector entities providing resources to Pakistan directly or through corporate social responsibility, will be covered.
This is a living document and will be updated over time. Information presented in this document is shared with donors for their feedback and revalidation, and the document will be revised based on the information update available. Summary of Donor Profiles

The Netherlands
The Dutch policy priorities for development cooperation have undergone fundamental changes in 2011 based on the findings of a study commissioned by the Dutch government, entitled: more ambition and less pretention. According to this study, the Netherlands should reduce the number of its partner countries and focus much more on sectors where it has a comparative advantage and value added: water management, food security, rule of law and reproductive health. The study also recommends putting more emphasis on investments and trade as engines for economic growth, employment and human development.
Thematic Focus: The Dutch government also decided to refocus its support and services in the coming years in Pakistan on the following two sectors:
1. Human security, rule of law and human rights and 2. Promotion of trade and investment under the slogan: from aid to trade.
Geographical Focus: Currently, the Dutch Embassy has projects in Malakand Division of Khyber PakhtunKhwa province only.
Country Programme Strategy: For Pakistan changes in Dutch development cooperation have resulted in the decision of the Dutch government to end its current bilateral development cooperation program. Therefore, all projects in education, water & environment, and governance will be completed before 2015. This also implies that no new funding requests will be accepted by the Dutch government in the afore-mentioned sectors.
The focus of the current bilateral development cooperation program is on basic education, water & environment, and governance.
Programmes and Projects: The current focus of the Dutch funded projects is on education, water and environment and governance. The education portfolio consists of 8 projects, covering pre-primary, primary, secondary and technical/vocational education and training. Most projects started in response to both natural disasters (earthquake and floods) and human emergencies in conflict affected districts, in particular in Khyber PakhtunKhwa and Balochistan. Construction and rehabilitation of (girls) schools and classrooms, improvement of sanitary facilities, provision of textbooks and complementary learning materials, teacher training and school based planning and management are part and parcel of most of the projects. Specific attention is paid to learning outcomes, safety and creating a child friendly learning environment.
The current water and environment portfolio consist of 13 projects and programs. Collaboration in the water and environment sectors are based on the priorities defined in the National Environmental Policy of the Government of Pakistan.
The Governance portfolio consists of 7 projects and covers electoral reforms, strengthening the functioning of Parliament, supporting community and public institutions for improved governance and protecting basic human rights, enhancing peace and security through integration of womens human rights. The support also includes training of young diplomats in international relations and diplomatic practice, and training of judges in international criminal law. Page 19 of 47

The European Union (EU)
Cooperation between the European Union (EU) and Pakistan dates back to 1974, but the 2004 cooperation agreement paved the way for closer relations. The EUs humanitarian aid and Civil Protection department (ECHO) has been working in Pakistan for a number of years, responding to people affected by natural disasters and conflict. Humanitarian aid to Pakistan has totaled almost 313 million since 2009. Various relief items were channeled and assistance provided to flood victims through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism. As part of the EUs response to the devastating floods that hit Pakistan, the European Parliament and the Council signed the measures giving emergency autonomous trade preferences for Pakistan on 25 October. This means that certain goods from Pakistan can enter the EU duty free or will be subject to certain ceilings (tariff rate quotas). The measures enter into force in November 2012 following their publication in the EU's Official Journal and was in place until 31 December 2013. Thematic Focus: The current thematic focus of the EU is on two main priorities:
1. Rural development and natural resources management the main concern here is the deteriorating state of the environment and declining water resources. The objective is to improve livelihoods and spur income generation and employment in rural communities, including those with big refugee populations.
2. Education and human resources development the aim is to increase access to basic education and improve vocational training to prepare the growing number of young people for the job market.
Geographical Focus: EU programme and project assistance has a county wide coverage with a focused approached towards areas affected by natural and manmade disasters.
Country Programme Strategy: In line with Pakistans policy priorities, the EUs programme strategy for Pakistan (2007-2013) aims at reducing poverty. The first focal area for assistance is rural development and natural resources management in Khyber PakhtunKhwa and Baluchistan with a view to reducing regional disparities and promoting stability in Pakistans sensitive provinces bordering Afghanistan. The second focal area will be education and human resources development which is a critical ingredient for developing a well-trained work force and creating a moderate and stable Pakistan.
Activities carried out in the field of higher education will be financed within the context of the regional programming for Asia. Other areas of assistance are trade development, democratization and human rights and anti-money laundering.
To maximize the impact of EC assistance, key cross-cutting issues, in particular the environment, conflict prevention, gender, HIV/AIDS, human rights and governance are mainstreamed in this CSP.
Programmes and Projects: The EU support goes to programmes in the areas of human rights, democratization and trade development. There are two major initiatives currently being implemented in Pakistan: Page 22 of 47
1. Support for track2 dialogue between India and Pakistan (implemented through the Jinnah Institute in Islamabad and the Centre for Dialogue and Reconciliation in Delhi): this project includes the organization of conferences both in Delhi and Islamabad gathering civil society, think tanks and media but also government officials. The objective is to discuss sensitive issues in order to create mutual understanding and goodwill on both sides. This project lasted for 18 months and will soon be prolonged for another 18 months. Kashmir was the main focus of the initial contracting period and will remain one of the main angles for the next 18 months (together with other issues such as water issues, Afghanistan post-2014 or media).
2. Peace-building in Kashmir (implemented through Conciliation Resources): the overall objective of the project is to contribute to a more productive and inclusive peace process between India and Pakistan by facilitating the participation of people from all regions of Kashmir and creating constituencies for peace on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC). The project focus includes cross LoC dialogue and advocacy training workshop for civil society, engagement of women mentors with women on respective sides of the LoC, advocacy activities and meetings with parliamentarians from both sides of Kashmir, joint university activities or support the development of a Memorandum of Understanding between cross LoC Chambers and Traders Associations.
Implementing Partners: EU has been engaged with a wide range of implementing partners including Democracy Reporting International, WB, UNDP, Internews, International Alert, Search for Common Ground, Community Appraisal and Motivation Programme Society CAMP, PAIMAN Alumni Trust, International Foundation for Electoral Systems, Trust for Democratic Education and Accountability (TDEA) / Free and Fair Elections Network
Funding Allocation: Under the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI), an indicative allocation of 398 million has been earmarked for Pakistan for the period 2007-2013. These resources may be supplemented by projects and programmes financed under the regional programmes for Asia and under various thematic programmes.

Norway
The Government of Pakistan and Norway has long standing relations. Norway established diplomatic relations with Pakistan when Pakistan gained its independence in 1947, and theres been a Norwegian Embassy in Islamabad since the 1970s. A cornerstone in the bilateral relations is the development cooperation, with an emphasis on education, health, good governance and culture. Norway is also a major humanitarian donor to Pakistan.
Thematic Focus: The overall objective of Norways development policy is to fight poverty and bring about social justice. Norways development priorities for Pakistan in 2014 will include good governance, education, rural development, women and gender equality and human rights. In addition, the embassy supports projects related to culture, peace and reconciliation, and building local capacities for disaster prevention, preparedness and response. Geographical Focus: Norways development programme and project has a county wide coverage with a focused approached towards neglected areas of the country.
Country Programme Strategy: Norwegian development policy is strongly aligned with the countrys foreign policy and national interest in international stability and in safeguarding global public good. The human-rights-approach and the focus on poverty reduction lost some importance in Norwegian cooperation in the last years, while the orientation to growth became more important. Norways focus on global poverty reduction is driven by a combination of moral responsibility and national interests. Its development policy is based on a commitment to solidarity and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the belief in a strong United Nations and a human-Rights-based-approach. Development policy aims at challenging structural sources of inequality, injustice, oppression and discrimination. The government is a strong supporter of multilateral development system, aid effectiveness, policy coherence and innovative financing mechanisms. Programmes and Projects: Norway has a number of new and on-going development initiatives in Pakistan. UNODC and Norway signed a project agreement on 6 June 2013 with a grant of NOK 1.75 million. The project will support improved institutional capacities for police training and crime scene investigation skills and processes, as well as improved training in prosecutor career development and police-prosecutor cooperation. NOK 15 million is also being provided to a 3-year programme (2012- 2014) for home based workers managed by UN Women. A total of NOK 20 million is expected to be spent in 2014 on the phasing out of the Norwegian-Pakistan Partnership Initiative managed by UNFPA, UNICEF and WHO. On the humanitarian front, Norway contributed NOK 10 million (approx. US$ 1.6 million) to the Emergency Response Fund Pakistan, while providing a combined total of NOK 50 million to organizations such as Save the Children, UNHCR, NRC and the Norwegian Red Cross/IFRC/ICRC.

US Agency for International Development (USAID)
For more than 60 years, the United States and Pakistan have worked together to forge a relationship that benefits the people of both countries. This cooperation produced transformative ideas and institutions that are still being considered landmark accomplishments to this day. This cooperation is fostering Pakistans economic and social progress as well as reinforcing the countrys role in the world.
The historic Enhanced Partnership with Pakistan Act of 2009, by now Secretary of State John Kerry, launched a robust new era of cooperation with Pakistan on development. The infusion of new resources provided for integrated, longer-term development programs in key sectors that are priorities for both Pakistan and the United States.
Thematic Focus: The United States has a deep interest in a stable, democratic, and prosperous Pakistan, as well as long-term constructive bilateral partnership. The USAID assistance program focuses on five priority sectors with crosscutting themes of civic participation, accountability and womens empowerment: 1. Increased sustainable energy supplied to the economy; 2. Improved economic status of focus populations; 3. Increased stability in focus areas; 4. Improved opportunities for learning and work; Improved maternal and child health outcomes in focus areas;
Geographical Focus: USAID programs are implemented in all areas of Pakistan, with a focus on under- represented geographic areas, including: i. Federally Administered Tribal Areas ii. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa iii. Southern Punjab iv. Sindh v. Balochistan vi. Gilgit-Baltistan vii. Azad Jammu Kashmir Country Programme Strategy: USAID program strategies are based on the national development priorities identified by the Government of Pakistan (GOP) in various sector development strategies. In addition, the program strategies also take into account priorities expressed by the Pakistani public in polling, media, and civil society discussions.
Programmes and Projects: Working with the GOP, other U.S. Government agencies, as well as multilateral and bilateral donors, USAID Pakistan has focused its program over the last year on five areas essential to Pakistans stability and long-term development and reflective of the GOPs development priorities. Over the last year, USAID has streamlined the number of projects to less than 70 and has also chosen to implement over half of all funding through local government and non-government organizations in Pakistan. Supporting the civilian governments capacity to meet the needs of its citizens Page 38 of 47
is a vital element of USAIDs program, as is working with non-governmental organizations and the private sector.

The World Bank
The World Banks support to Pakistan is directly linked to countrys own development vision. The World Bank, Pakistan is helping the Federal and Provincial Governments in implementing various reform programs aimed at encouraging growth, investment, and employment generation. Reforms at the provincial level are specifically aimed at improving delivery of social services like education, health, clean drinking water, and sanitation. These efforts have yielded impressive results in many areas. Thematic Focus: More precisely, the World Bank has been supporting the Government of Pakistan in the following four strategic pillars emanating from the current country partnership strategy: 1. Economic governance 2. Human development and social protection 3. Infrastructure to support growth 4. Security and reducing the risk of conflict Geographical Focus: The World Bank has been working in all provinces including Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA)
Country Programme Strategy: The World Bank Country Partnership Strategy was updated with a Progress Report in 2012 which in consultation with the Government of Pakistan now covers the period up to 2014. The overall focus of the strategy is to help Pakistan's economy get back onto a path of high, sustained growth. The partnership remains centered on the existing strategic pillars of the strategy and evolving federal and provincial priorities as validated by the government and other stakeholders during various consultation sessions. In consultation with the Government, the strategy period was extended to include FY 2014 to synchronize it with the national political cycle and the IDA cycle. The World Bank Group Pakistan is currently preparing its new Country Partnership Strategy for the next five years, covering Fiscal Years 2015-2019. It will be designed to focus on the twin goals of ending extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity. Programmes and Projects: The World Bank uses lending and analytical work to help Pakistan achieve its goals. Pakistans portfolio (IDA/IBRD/MDTF) consists of 34 projects with a total commitment of $4.4 billion. In addition, the Bank maintains an extensive and ongoing analytic work program on a wide range of economic and sector specific topics. The Regional agenda will continue to be a Bank focus. South Asia remains one of the least integrated regions in the world, and this undermines growth efforts. Many of the Banks country-specific Pakistan projects in trade and transportation, ports, and power will help regional cooperation. Beyond this, the Bank expects to support increased trade cooperation between Pakistan and its neighbors. This will be particularly important in strengthening the trade corridor with Afghanistan during its transition period. A regional power line (CASA-1000) is also being supported that would connect Central Asia, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Page 45 of 47

Implementing Partners: The World Bank works in collaboration with federal ministries, autonomous bodies, and provincial/ regional departments throughout the country. The Bank has programs having partnership with local civil society organizations and private sector. Funding Allocation: To support the aforementioned thematic areas, the Bank will remain engaged with a robust program projected at up to $4.0 billion in new IDA/IBRD lending over FY 2012-14. An increasing portion of the Banks portfolio is being managed at the province level, consistent with the recent 18 th
Constitutional Amendment. The Bank also manages a Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) of about $140 million for conflict-affected areas, which provides grants to Khyber PakhtunKhwa, FATA and Balochistan.

An overview of the Banks fiscal commitments to Pakistan over the period from FY 2009 to FY 2013 is given in the following table. Commitments by Fiscal Year (in millions of dollars) FY 2009 1,610 FY 2010 300 FY 2011 1,553 FY 2012 1,790 FY 2013 744 Total 6,136
Funding Mechanism: The World Bank has rolled out an innovative lending instrument that ties funding directly to the delivery of results. The newly introduced Program-for-Results (PforR) modality does not provide financing to cover a programs expense. Instead, it disburses money upon the delivery and verification of predefined results. PforR is designed to help improve the capacity, transparency and performance of a recipient countrys government systems and institutions focused on improving national systems such as those for the health and education sector. It is to complement two existing World Bank lending instruments: policy-based loans that fund policy changes and project-support loans that finance project expenditures or inputs. PforR is used in combination with any or both of the two.
