Building communities: how poor people are unlocking their own potential | guardian.co.ukIntroduced to Pakistan in 1982 through an Aga Khan programme, the methodology entails RSP representatives holding public consultations with villages to determine their needs and establish a collective commitment to organisation.

The model comprises three tiers of community organising. The lowest tier operates at household level, consisting of networks of 15 households. This supports a larger structure addressing the entire village’s development needs. The final tier, which operates at the local government level through union councils (elected local government bodies), consists of village representatives.
