Diya Education Foundation will scrutinise the information for eligibility criteria, standard operating procedures, control mechanism and monitoring methodology being exercised by Diya Pakistan.
-
After evaluating the report the trustees will decide to release the funds to Diya Pakistan. Diya Pakistan will receive the funds in different stages based on the completion of project. This is to ensure that Diya Education Foundation is fully involved in the project and the reporting would be requested at each stage before any further funds are released.
-
Diya Education Foundation will continuously monitor the process and would also be involved in direct supervision to ensure the funds are being utilised for objectives they have been remitted for.
