Our Projects
Pakistan is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change, suffering from multiple climate induced challenges ranging from extreme weather events, such as floods and droughts, to rising temperatures and glacial melt in the north. In response, a wide range of climate adaptation and mitigation projects are being implemented across the country to protect vulnerable communities, build local resilience and promote sustainable development.
This page highlights key climate change projects being carried out in Pakistan at the national and sub-national levels with support of various development partners and donors. These projects span sectors such as water resource management, renewable energy, agriculture, disaster risk reduction, forest conservation, and urban resilience.
