3-Day Training on Formulation and Development Project Proposal Development
A 3-Day training workshop was organized by Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹ûÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥ Pakistan under its Balochistan Partnership for Sustainable Development (BPSD) programme between 18-20th October 2011 at the Boy Scouts Head Quarter in Quetta.

The overall objective of the training workshop was to familiarize the districts and provincial governmental departments with the revised and amended format of the PC-1. PC-1 is one of the basic documents
to plan and implement any development project at the governmental level. There was a strong need for expertise and training on PC-1 since most of the staff members lack the ability to formulate a standard PC-1 that can be finalized and approved by the government for funding.

The objective of the workshop was to familiarize the representatives of the Government of Balochistan Line Departments and representatives the new and emerging concepts of Project Development and basic approach of the project formation on amended/revised PC-1 format used by the Planning Commission of Pakistan and the provincial line departments and district administration.
