Thank you for your support and donations of USD 1013. The Project enlightens the vision of AWARD Pakistan to combat the climatic changes through Plantation in Pakistan . AWARD Pakistan plans to plant 1 million trees in the next 5 years considering the fact that Pakistan is among the top 10 countries which will be most affected by the Climatic Changes.The country had faced several natural disasters on very large scale in the past decade due to rise in temperature such as earthquakes, famine, floods, deadly heatwaves etc.
During the last quarter, AWARD Pakistan initiated a consultancy meeting with the communities (residing on the river banks) for reducing disaster risk and for planting trees in the rural suburbs of District Muzaffargarh. The community was willing to cooperate as they do beleive it to be the activity that could save these areas from flood in future.
Unfortunately due to the COVID-19 pandemic the tree plantation didnt took place. However, the AWARD with the community's assistance will be planting 3000 trees initially. AWARD's social mobilizers assisted the communities in developing up the risk reduction plans.
AWARD wishes to extend the program to 25 villages in this year. For this purpose , we require more support from the supporters and donors. AWARD has already initiated a program with the help of GlobalGiving for the Relief , Recovery and Resilience for the flood which will also be targeting the training and tree plantation in it as well.
We would like to request our donors to continue their support , to help the people fight back harmful effects of climate change.
