Pakistan is one of the top ten countries in the world affected by climate change, despite only being responsible for 1% of global greenhouse emissions.
Now, after the devastating floods that swept the country over the last few months, 1,543 health clinics have been partially or fully destroyed resulting in millions of people without adequate access to healthcare. Right now, communities need support to rebuild their lives and futures, as well as urgent medical care for post-flood diseases and mental trauma. Support us today so that together we can rebuild the futures of those most vulnerable in Pakistan.

We are currently providing technical guidance and input to a consortium of local Pakistani organisations who are working on immediate relief activities during the acute phase of the flood response. 90% of all first responders to an emergency are local organisations, and they do not have access to the big budgets and technical coordination mechanisms to develop their response further and ensure the localised response is resilient and sustainable for the long term.

We recently coordinated a trip to Broghil Valley as part of our current emergency response due to the lack of support the area had received so far. A stock of 400 high quality warm blankets as well as 5.5 tons of food, including flour, rice, sugar, tea and cooking oil were taken on a 20 hour journey to a number of villages in the area.
