Sindh government in collaboration with the UNDP had convened the conference on Resilient Sindh: From Pledges to Reconstruction’ in Karachi to harness international and local support for the people of Sindh to harness international and local support for the people of Sindh. The meeting was attended by Chairman P&D ShakilMangnejo.

The Caretaker Sindh Chief Minister Justice (Retd) MaqboolBaqar and United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Resident representative Samuel Rizk in their meeting at CM House decided to mark the anniversary resilient Sindh: From Pledges to Reconstruction’ conference they had co-hosted last year.

The UNDP has started a pilot project Risk Governance Framework. One provincial consultant and three district consultants were being made on board for implementation support for the four-month assignment. The pilot interventions are binge undertaken in three districts- Naushehroferoze, Jamshoro and Thatta, Chairman P&D ShakilMangejo told the CM.

The UNDP Representative said that the parameters for selecting the pilot districts were to cover the most affected districts in terms of housing damages while also considering geographical spread and rural-urban representation for replication and scaling up the program to the entire province, especially calamity-hit districts, after generating credible evidence for effectiveness.

The CM said that the floods of 2022 have had a severe impact on the province of Sindh. He added that even before the floods occurred, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimated in its report that the annual financing gap for meeting SDGs stands at $3.72 billion nationally for 2020-2030.

This wide resource gap necessitates significant grant financing from development partners and trust funds. The visiting UNDP Representative assured the chief minister that his organisation would be supporting the people of Sindh in the rehabilitation work.
