Senate Standing Committee on Climate Change Thursday held at the Parliament House, with Senator Seemee Ezdi in Chair.
During the meeting, the committee members were provided with an insightful briefing by Ministry officials regarding Pakistan’s holistic strategy in addressing Climate Change. The officials expounded on the intricacies of the “National Adaptation Plan” (NAP), a meticulously crafted blueprint resulting from extensive consultations at both Federal and Provincial levels.
The NAP stands as a visionary pathway, aimed at bolstering Pakistan’s resilience to climate challenges and fostering robust communities. Among its primary objectives, the NAP seeks to galvanize financial resources and establish a global fund pipeline. The plan encompasses a multitude of crucial facets, including Disaster Risk Management, the National Clean Air Policy, the expansion of Green Pakistan, directives on National Hazardous Waste Policy, regulations addressing Single Use Plastic, the 2023 Climate Change Gender Action Plan (CCGAP), and more.
