LOCAL
NEW ROSHNI has developed close collaboration with number of international and national organizations. These linkages have been established to share expert opinions, experiences and to seek their technical and financial support for carrying out various activities/projects. Following is a list of NEW ROSHNI current donors and others co-partners:
In addition, NEW ROSHNI has established a strong network with local CBOs in the target areas where the organization is working.
FUTURE PLAN OF ACTION Social Mobilization, Organization and Capacity buildings NEW ROSHNI is dedicated to mobilize and organize people at the gross root level of the community, which is the right way for any type of social work. In this prospect, currently, NEW ROSHNI has desired to provide Women Right, Primary Health Care Facilities to IDPs living with
Host Families and facilitate them with the Health Education through constitution of special health committees. NEW ROSHNI also feels that the existing facilities available at the primary level in the field of health are not sufficient to cater for the needs of local communities as well as the IDPS living in the Catchments areas of these first level health facilities . NEW ROSHNI therefore desires to have a partner for strengthening the health facilities in term of human resource and technical support. It aims to educate the masses through lectures, seminars, and health sessions
Social Education Awareness and Development Welfare organization (NEW Roshni)
New Roshni ORGANIZATION PROFILE at the community level and through distribution of literature in the health education session to be held at School, Hujras, and Madrassas. The schemes of NEW ROSHNI also include the education of Mothers on preparation of ORS, Health Hygiene and breast feeding through organizing special events at home level by the Female Social Organizer and Hygiene Promoters of the organization. The organization desires to set Medical Mobile Teams (MMT) with Male and Female Doctors equipped with Ultrasound Machines and mini pathological laboratory for delivery of Primary Health Care Services to the people of the IDPs & Flood affected areas at their door step. Community Participation NEW ROSHNI intends to undertake large integrated rural development projects in NWFP through
village based organizations mainly consisting of the local people, who actively involve in identification, planning and implementation of the village level development activities. Throughout this program, NEW ROSHNI aims to strengthen public-private partnership and encourage the burgeoning dialogue between communities, government and NGOs. Its focus on institutional development is intended to improve overall capacity and efficiency, to encourage good governance, i.e. transparency, accountability, checks and balance system at the grass root level. In all its work NEW ROSHNI strives to make a reality of the participatory approach in mobilizing communities. Projects will be planned in an informed way with community perceived needs and community knowledge will be given due consideration. All these efforts will create a sense of ownership and long-term sustainability of the projects. Self-Sufficiency/ Breaking the Dependency Syndrome NEW ROSHNI strongly believes in community ownership of the programs, which in turn creates a sense of self-reliance and therefore, breaks down the dependency syndrome. The concerned project community will identify projects and will participate in its planning, designing, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Once they are given full participation and authority, they will sustain it with their own resources. This approach will strengthen CBOs and will increase their sense of ownership, determination and commitment during the life cycle of the project. It will help in institutionalization of various program components and make them sustainable at the community level. This will also help in creating and building the capacity and morale boasting of local activists and institutions to become more aware, independent and selfreliant in the future. One of the objectives of this plan is to involve the community as a partner during the implementation of the project and as the sole owner after the completion of the project. This is completely a new approach on the part of NEW ROSHNI and for successful completion, it is imperative that NGO and GOs (Governmental Organizations) must recognize the CBOs as the RPI (Real Project Implementers) with supervision and technical support from the NGOs and GOs.

B. CHALLENGES To work in a conservative and underdeveloped society one has to face several challenges but it must be the aim of the civil society organizations to overcome these challenges and get the support of the local communities. KPK in general and the rural areas of KPK in Particular have highly conservative societies and the communities always have doubts about the working of NGOs in these areas. The religious minded people of these areas normally use the innocent and unaware people for their personal agenda and normally they create hurdle in various developmental activities in the area. NEW ROSHNI since, its inception has closely interacted with the local communities and religious scholars and has invited them to its various programs. Moreover, NEW ROSHNI has adopted
such approach in interacting with the local people that the ethics and values of our religion and Pukhtoon must be preserved at all costs. NEW ROSHNI has qualified, experience and professional staff who are well aware of all the social
and cultural norms of the people and, therefore, are able to accomplish their tasks within stipulated time in a challenging manner.
