National Resources And Risk Financing
Pakistan faces growing challenges from both climate-induced and natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, droughts, and cyclones. Despite these vulnerabilities, the country possesses vast untapped resources including natural, human, industrial, and institutional assets. If strategically mobilized, these resources can significantly enhance Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) efforts and foster long-term resilience. Addressing these challenges requires a whole-of-society approach aimed at transforming potential into preparedness.
