Learning Climate Resilience from Bangladesh | Mazhar Iqbal Mazhar

Opinion

By Mazhar Iqbal Mazhar Pakistan should learn about climate resilience from Bangladesh. The disasters caused by floods in these two South Asian countries are dreadful and devastating. Though, there is a significant difference between the two nations regarding building resources to fight against such disasters. After decades of resilience education, Bangladesh has acquired specialized expertise and management skills for dealing with floods. Pakistan, which has not faced as much destruction from floods as its financial mismanagement, is now scrambling to deal with the devastating monsoon floods. The global donor community has noticed Pakistan's scrambling, at least to the extent of making generous pledges in Geneva.This is significant progress on the global climate action agenda. ...

Story: Memory of the Ruin / By Maryam Jilani

Opinion

Maryam Jilani The darkness had enveloped everything and the convulsing grip of land was pulling her down.
