Ehsanpur village located in KotAddu, a sub-district (Tehsil) of Muzaffargarh on
the bank of River Indus in the province of Punjab was severely affected by the floods
of 2010.
In a proactive response to the national emergency PPAF convened a unique partnership
of various institutions. With Engro Foundation- the CSR arm of Engro Corporation
as its lead corporate partner, the project brought together the Government of Punjab,
TUSDEC- a local technology company, Ansar Management Company-a local low-cost housing
company and Roshni - a local NGO for education for an integrated project implemented
through Farmers Development Organization, a PPAF partner organization.
The project adopted an innovative approach for rehabilitation and reconstruction
with a focus on housing, alternative energy, girls’ education, women empowerment,
livelihoods, sanitation and local area development.
