Orientation Session on KP-RAP Component 2 – Charsadda District

On May 5, 2025, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Rural Accessibility Project (KP-RAP), funded by the World Bank and implemented through the C&W Department, organized a district-level orientation session in Charsadda as part of Component 2: Safe and Affordable School Journeys for Girls.

The session was attended by the District Education Officer (DEO), Deputy DEO, ASDEOs, and Head Teachers from 42 identified treatment schools. It focused on the operational and safety aspects of providing free transport to middle school girls (Grades 6–8) residing at a minimum distance of 1.5 km from school.

A vital component of this initiative is ensuring girls’ protection from Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and promoting a safe commuting experience. For this purpose, Khwendo Kor, a leading women-focused organization in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has been engaged as the GBV Firm under KP-RAP. Khwendo Kor will support in sensitization, awareness, and integration of gender-responsive safety measures within the project scope.

This orientation marks a step forward in reducing barriers to girls’ education and ensuring safe, affordable, and inclusive school journeys.
