About the programme
SIA works with government departments and donors on how public services are designed and delivered: design-thinking workshops for Government of Balochistan officials across line departments, extended to rural community workers with IDSP; the Balochistan Education Leadership Forum with UNICEF and PITE, on gender-sensitive reforms and social protection; teacher professional development with JICA and BHCIP (ASPIRE); and a 3-day interpersonal communication training for district immunisation staff under the World Bank-financed BHCIP, with bilingual manuals.
From 22 to 24 December 2023, SIA and the United States Educational Foundation in Pakistan (USEFP) held a Public Policy Hackathon in Quetta. University students from across Balochistan worked on policy proposals, and PKR 150,000 was awarded in seed grants.
In 2024 SIA ran a 3-day Policy Hackathon and the Policy Making Competition at BUITEMS: university students designed policy solutions through design thinking, with more than 66 participants per cohort and seed grants for winning ideas.

How SIA reports results
Every figure SIA publishes has a definition, a source and an "as of" date, and the same number appears on every page, proposal and report. A figure without an agreed definition is not published until it has one.
That is why some results on this page are still marked for checking: they will appear here once they are confirmed.
Work with SIA on a programme like this
SIA designs and delivers programmes with donors, government and companies, and measures every result.
