Human Rights & Advocacy
PRESS RELEASE - Lack of coordinated efforts between government and civil society organizations leads to the growing menace of women trafficking in Khyber Pukhtunkhwa.
A half day consultative meeting on Women Trafficking under the title "The Inter Institutional Referral System (IRS)" was organized by Community Appraisal & Motivation Programme (CAMP) on 26/06/2010.
Promoting human rights and liberties ...
Promoting human rights and liberties is one of CAMP’s core programming areas, and a major cross-cutting theme in all our work. Our human rights work involves empowering communities to claim their fundamental rights, guiding them to advocate for these rights, and creating dialogue between communities and key stakeholders for realization of these rights.
Through our programmes we speak out for some of the most vulnerable groups including people with disabilities, and raise our voice on the issue of human trafficking (especially women and children), governance reforms in FATA, and the right to basic services for all
Communities for Change Project
In order to develop a sustained network of Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and local leadership, CAMP initiated the Communities for Change Project in May 2009. The 21 month project is funded by Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Islamabad.
Capacity Building of Relevant Stakeholders to Counter Human Trafficking
CAMP received support from UNDP's Gender Justice and Protection Fund for a two year project to combat women and girls trafficking in Khyber Pukhtunkhwa, which compliments CAMP's earlier project funded by the EU (2007-08).
Disability Resource Centre
CAMP established the Disability Resource Center (DRC) in Mansehra, KPK in 2007. The DRC is the first of its kind information sharing/advocacy/service coordination centre in the province. The Project supports an outreach programme to identify disabled children and adults, provide community based rehabilitation services and refer them on to NGO-run prosthetic/orthotic and other rehabilitation units established in the area post earthquake.
Public Opinion Poll - Understanding FATA
CAMP has been conducting opinion polls in FATA since 2007, gathering data about the attitudes of people towards governance, religion and society, human rights and the international community. With the financial assistance of the British High Commission, CAMP has conducted one of the biggest surveys of its kind in the region for understanding an area that appears to be an unsolved mystery to the rest of the world. The results of these surveys have been made available in English, Urdu, Pashtu and Dari languages.
Advocacy through consultation for reforms in Frontier Crimes Regulations in FATA
Through several research oriented and wide-ranging advocacy campaigns, CAMP is working to bring about reforms in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. The projects aim at understanding the perceptions of the local population about the Frontier Crimes Regulation as well as to document the recommendations of the intelligentsia of the area about the necessary changes. Projects such as Understanding FATA and Communities for Change are working in this regard.
