Resilience isn't just financed by resources — it's built through smarter risk management and stronger systems. 🌍🤝

The workshop explored pathways for advancing Sindh’s #INFF, discussions focused on mobilizing climate financing & integrating risk financing into development financing to strengthen financial resilience in Sindh to manage future climate and development risks.

Under #UNDPinPakistan’s National Governance Programme, supported by @FCDOGovUK@FCDOGovUK, @Le@LeghariMohsin, Former Senator and Water Governance Expert, on provincial water sharing, highlighting three priorities:

🏛️ Strengthening Parliamentarians’ role in shaping water governance
🔧 Stronger technical support for water governance institutions
📏 More accurate water data that everyone can trust

Because better water governance means a more resilient Pakistan. 🌱

[UNDP Pakistan @UNDP_Pakistan]

What happens when there is too much water or too little? For 259.6 million Pakistanis, water insecurity is an everyday reality.

@SecretariatSDGs and #UNDPinPakistan convened a parliamentary seminar on Water Governance to explore what works and how local, low-cost solutions can reach more people.

Government institutions, think tanks and development partners came together to discuss practical ways to improve access to safe, reliable water and reduce the impacts of floods and water scarcity.

[UNDP Pakistan @UNDP_Pakistan]

"The truest measure of water governance is found in the household that can count on clean water when it turns the tap, and in the family that sleeps through the monsoon without fear."

Dr. @SamuelRizk, Resident Representative #UNDPinPakistan, underlined how water shapes lives in Pakistan in his opening remarks, stressing the role of governance and effective service delivery with regard to water security.

A year after the floods that devastated Buner and Shangla, this #WorldHumanitarianDay, we recognize those who helped communities stand up again.

Through the Resilient Recovery and Adaptation Programme (RRAP), #UNDPinPakistan supported recovery with over 2,100 agricultural toolkits, 400 fuel-efficient stoves and solarized health facilities, helping families restore livelihoods, ease household pressures and keep essential care running.

Recovery is built together — with communities leading the way and humanitarians standing beside them.

One year ago, flash floods swept through Buner valley, claiming over 200 lives.

Behind every number is a family, a home and a life changed forever. In the months that followed, #UNDPinPakistan stood alongside affected communities, helping restore livelihoods and essential services while strengthening resilience to future crises.

One year on, Buner’s story continues through renewal and hope.
