“بے نظیر ہنرمند پروگرام،” جسے BISP متعارف کروانے جا رہا ہے، غریب خاندانوں کو ہنر کی تربیت دے کر ان کی مدد کرنا ہے تاکہ وہ روزی کمانے اور اپنے خاندانوں کو غربت سے نکالنے کے لیے اپنی صلاحیتوں کا استعمال کر سکیں۔ بے نظیر ہنرمند پروگرام کے تحت، گرانٹ حاصل کرنے والی خواتین اور ان کی اولادوں کو چھوٹے کاروبار یا روزگار کے امکانات کے لیے قابل روزگار مہارتوں کو فروغ دینے میں مدد کے لیے ہنر پر مبنی تربیت ملے گی۔ اس پروگرام کا مقصد ان کی مالی آزادی کی ڈگری کو بڑھا کر ان کی مالی صورتحال کو بہتر بنانا ہے۔ مزید برآں، یہ نئے اراکین کے لیے پروگرام میں مزید جگہ بناتا ہے جنہیں مدد کی ضرورت ہوتی ہے کیونکہ وہ نئی صلاحیتیں پیدا کرتے ہیں اور زیادہ خود کفیل ہوتے ہیں۔
