Balochistan Livelihoods and Entrepreneurship Project (BLEP)

Challenge

Many districts of Balochistan face limited employment opportunities, weak enterprise development, and constraints to sustainable livelihoods, particularly in agriculture and food systems. Meanwhile, there was also a need to assess the likelihood of achieving intended results while strengthening gender integration and responding to challenges related to climate change and refugee-hosting communities.

World Bank Group

Approach

In partnership with Wijdan, Reenergia Impact supported the World Bank Group by assessing project pathways, the likelihood of achieving intended results, and opportunities to strengthen gender integration across agriculture and food-sector interventions. The review examined fund allocations for economic mobilization, enterprise development, and project management, while establishing key performance indicators related to direct beneficiaries, job-focused interventions, and enterprise profitability. The analysis linked implementation realities with broader objectives around climate resilience, gender equality, and rural development.

Outcome

The assignment supported clearer understanding of how the project could deliver livelihood and enterprise outcomes for approximately 56,610 households, including refugee-hosting communities. It also supported improved measurement of impact on direct beneficiaries, employment-focused interventions, and enterprise profitability, while contributing to sustainable enterprise development, rural uplift, and stronger integration of climate and gender objectives.
