| 44 | This House acknowledges the contributions of international organizations, civil society organizations, and the international diaspora of Pakistan's fight against climate change and their assistance in rehabilitating vulnerable communities affected by climate-induced disasters. The House recognizes the urgent need for global cooperation to combat climate change and mitigate its adverse effects. It notes that extreme weather events, such as the 2022 flood, have disproportionately impacted vulnerable communities, exacerbating existing climate issues and placing a significant psycho-socioeconomic and health burden on women and children. The House emphasizes the importance of collective action to protect and uplift these segments of society in the face of climate-related crises. This House expresses deep appreciation to Islamic Relief Worldwide, United Nations (UN) for their vital role in steering Pakistan's climate action. Their initiatives have supported the development of climate-resilient infrastructure, enhanced disaster risk management systems, and promoted sustainable livelihoods. The House encourages the Government of Pakistan to strengthen collaboration with international organizations, leveraging their expertise and resources, to enhance the country's climate change mitigation policies and disaster risk reduction strategies. It also calls upon international organizations to continue supporting Pakistan's efforts to tackle climate change through knowledge sharing Recognizing the invaluable contributions made by Pakistani philanthropists abroad and within Pakistan, towards fostering national economic growth. It is to our mutual benefit to recognize their efforts as it will strengthen the relations between the nation and its diaspora. The House strongly advocates for the integration of gender mainstreaming and inclusivity in all climate-related interventions. | Supplementary | Adopted |
