AREP Project

The Society for Community Strengthening and Promotion of Education, Balochistan (SCSPEB) seeks to promote human development by utilizing community mobilization strategies to establish government-community partnerships. Society realizes that promoting education as a whole, especially for girls, requires support from all stakeholders: parents, community, schools, education department, and local government. Only through the active interest and sense of shared responsibility of such stakeholders can access and quality of education be ensured. In 2001, SCSPEB received the prestigious UN Award, from the UN Systems in Pakistan, for its inspirational contribution to promoting female education in the remote rural areas of Balochistan and developing the Community Support Process (CSP) model. Society is the only organization in Pakistan to have been awarded this great honor.
