History & Introduction of Sangat Development Society

Concern World Wide (Pakistan Programme)

initiated emergency relief work during 2003, after flood hit Lasbella, for
the most affected families and particularly for woman and children.
Sangat Development Society was instituted as part of this plan to
address the effects of flood by involving communities in a development
process. Service delivery and semi-development work continued until
2003, when an external evaluation was commissioned, which
recommended Sangat Lasbella to translate the experience in to an
independent organization, supporting communities in forming village
development organizations and build their capacities through disaster
risk management training.

Sangat defines Programme cycles with a strategic plan

covering a period of three years. This initial term plan is defining broad
objectives of the phase and the year by the sectors of intervention.

month, the planning of the subsequent ones, the exchange of
experience as well as the co-ordination of activities between the
sections of Programme support and Programme operations as well as
administration and finance (e.g. allocation of funds /use of vehicles).
Monthly technical reports are prepared by the field teams and
consolidated into monthly comprehensive Programme reports by the
Monitoring of project Coordinators. These also prepare quarterly, half
yearly and the annual reports on a routine basis, which summarize the
monthly report for the respective period of time.

Detailed analyses related to results/targets/objectives

achievements are undertaken. Now system exists to assess effects and
impact of activities. Though, such assessments are difficult to be
applied with the short term planning and monitoring systems but here
