The overall goal of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the Water and Sanitation Extension Program of the Aga Khan Planning and Building Service, Pakistan’s integrated package of interventions for alleviating poverty in the target population of Gilgit District in Pakistan. Largely, the water and sanitation program does help alleviate poverty, but whether these programs distribute the benefits equally among the households having varying wealth status has been a big question mark. Also, what are the perceptions of the beneficiary households about these benefits: do they perceive them as a help toward escaping from the vicious circle of poverty?
