CHAPTER IV: LIMITATION & CHALENGE AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO OVERCOME

An indicator of result one “100 % children get need based health facilities through linkage with

services provider”. However, though quantitative data shows 81 percent children are getting

health facilities but there was no means of verification has been found to probe the avoidance.

So, the study suggested that the project can provide health cards with take consultation

community hospital. Moreover, the project can take initiative to organize health camp. And,

orphan mothers may engage with community clinic management committee as a member.

The study found till now 2 percent HH are doing open defecation and only 8 percent HHs have

sanitary latrine though sanitation status have been improved than baseline. The study suggested

that project should encourage beneficiaries to ensure sanitary toilet by their IGA profit, take

Qard-e-al-hasana from their group found, from their saving and make strong linkage with

sanitation services providers.

The study found that till now around 15% HH are suffering water borne related disease. As a

recommendation, if they ensure their water and sanitation the water related borne will

reduced.

The study found 5% HHs lost their productive assets or IGA by the thunder lighting. So project

should think about mainstream them by the project fund or group fund.

The child club seems less organized. So project should emesis on the child club.

It was found that in the club have no books for study. So, project should ensure book for child club.

The project’s operation level staffs have lack of knowledge on project targeted log frame

indicators and proxy indicators. So project can give orientation for them to proper

understanding project targeted indicators and proxy indicators as well as way of achieve

indicators so that they can do work properly.
