ISLAMABAD: Saudi Aid agency, the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) has concluded the second phase of its Economic Empowerment of Vulnerable Households in Pakistan through Livestock Provision Project.

Under this phase, 1,000 vulnerable households across the northwestern districts of Swat, Swabi, Haripur, and Mansehra were supported through the distribution of comprehensive poultry-based livelihood packages.

Each beneficiary family received 25 poultry birds along with complete poultry kits to help establish sustainable income-generating activities, Radio Pakistan reported on Tuesday.

To ensure long-term impact, 40 structured training sessions on poultry management and income generation were conducted, with technical assistance provided by the provincial Livestock Department.

The initiative is designed to enhance economic resilience, improve household nutrition, and strengthen food security among vulnerable communities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
