Waseela-e-Taleem

Introduction

BISP has launched “Waseela-e-Taleem” a co-responsibility cash transfer (CCT) programme for the primary education of the children aged 5-12 years of its beneficiary families. (includes newly admitted and already admitted)
The term “co-responsibility” refers to joint responsibility. (BISP will provide cash transfers while families will agree to send and retain their children in primary schools).
Pakistan is committed to Universal primary Education as part of its commitment to the MDGs.
BISP’s data (poverty scorecard survey) shows that over 71% children of its beneficiaries have never attended a school.
Waseela-e-Taleem program would facilitate these families to send their children to school by linking BISP’s cash transfers with human capital development.
