Given the above approach and keeping in mind the socio-economic conditions of the SRSO's programme area and experience of the older Rural Support Programmes elsewhere in Pakistan, SRSO in its second year of existence decided that its efforts to alleviate poverty have to be multidimensional and could only be effectively tackled through sustained and collective efforts for:-

i) Institutional development (social mobilization)
ii) Savings, credit and enterprise development
iii) Skills enhancement
iv) Physical infrastructure development
v) Gender development, and
vi) Monitoring, evaluation and reporting
