Code for Pakistan runs the KP Civic Innovation Fellowship program to improve public services in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa through technology and open data. The fellowship partners technologists with the government to solve problems like electricity theft and traffic congestion. Fellows design tech solutions over multiple iterations with government input. Successful projects from prior cohorts include an electricity theft reporting system and a traffic management app. The fellowship aims to foster civic engagement and transparency while leveraging technology for more efficient governance.
