The concept of benefit-sharing has popular focus in numerous discussions concerning approaches with displacement, development, and sustainable livelihood. It is clear that compensation is inadequate to mitigate impoverishment risks and re-build improved sustainable livelihoods. Benefit-sharing is seen to be a vital option for the improvement and development of re-settler’s livelihoods. Subsequently, this study aims to provide evidence of the present state of policy, benefit-sharing mechanism practices, and approaches in the hydropower sector of Pakistan. The benefit-sharing mechanism is present in some form but it needs new endoresements and reforms within the national resettlement framework of Pakistan. The target case in this study is to investigate the implementation level of benefit-sharing mechanisms in the Ghazi Barotha Hydropower project. It shows an example of some necessary elements of benefit-sharing and has provided a possible solution for solving the dilemma of compensation-based resettlement in Pakistan.

改革流离失所人口的利益分享机制：来自巴基斯坦 Ghazi Barotha 水电项目的证据

惠益分享的概念在许多关于流离失所、发展和可持续生计方法的讨论中受到广泛关注。很明显，补偿不足以减轻贫困风险和重建改善的可持续生计。利益分享被视为改善和发展重新安置者生计的重要选择。随后，本研究旨在为巴基斯坦水电部门的政策现状、利益分享机制实践和方法提供证据。利益分享机制以某种形式存在，但它需要在巴基斯坦的国家重新安置框架内进行新的认可和改革。本研究的目标案例是调查 Ghazi Barotha 水电项目中利益共享机制的实施水平。
