Grant Description

The breakdown of confidence and trust between local communities and the government of Pakistan institutions has led to increased vulnerability to violent extremism (VE) in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Province.

In an effort to rebuild that confidence and in turn reduce the space for VE groups, PERSI II-IOM supports efforts to bring communities and local authorities together through small-scale service projects that strengthen community resilience and create conditions for those displaced by violent conflict to return home.
