Challenges in perusing field Conflicted areas is very serious concern regarding life and towards fruitful achievement so in

many areas of rural side there is worsen law and order situation due to this sufficient number oftarget remain unachieved.

Still there is number of members of our staff who don’t have service identity card and as everyone knows many times issues of fraud has been happened so community is distrusting any oneand most of the time Sos were insulted by community due to lack of ID.

Most villages in rural side are unknown and even locals have no information in the result hugenumber of target is not achieved.

Pending cases issue is also exists in city side especially where is huge hamlets so withoutcomplete information of beneficiaries they could not traced means in many cases head name isnot belongs to male but female.

There are lot of areas in which religious notable persons have hold on community and withouttheir permission community don’t respond well.

Due to mismanagement in payment system many beneficiaries injured and died in result in mostof the areas community shows anger and negative response.

Mitigation of Challenges

To mitigate conflict area situation we must have security squad either BISP official having together

with us in field otherwise target of these areas can not be achieved because this is very serious

concern about life.

All members should have available service identity cards for the purpose of having stable field

activities.

We should communicate with religious notable persons about giving them brief of our project

either organize events such as area opening meetings.

There should be stable payment system and for this BISP officials hold responsible themselves

because community is getting bad impact regarding BISP and any about any person or group

going there regarding BISP information.

Lessons LearntFor Identification and verification of BISP beneficiaries it is necessary to involvecommunity as well monitoring over all activities and check related documents.AF Mobilizer Team observed transparency at all levels followed.

The procedural documentations from hard to soft may cause delay in process.Documentation should be streamline. Lack of resource and Lack of interest andsupport may hinder in sustainability

Hundreds of the listed beneficiaries are missing when team reaches at theiraddresses as written during the survey.

Community leaders can help address some of the complicated ground facts ofprogram implementation, such as restricted flexibility of women, culturallimitations, difficult regional constraints, and a vast and varying number ofbeneficiaries.
