Urban planning workshop aims to help cities adapt to climate change KARACHI: In Karachi, the NDMA is holding a two-day workshop on "Resilient Urban Planning in Climate Extremes." The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Sindh, UNHABITAT, and the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM) of NDMA successfully held a two-day workshop on comprehensive "Resilient Urban Planning in Climate Extremes." A wide spectrum of stakeholders actively participated in the event, bringing together important figures in urban planning and catastrophe management. Mr. Tanveer Piracha, Chief Coordinator of NIDM, gave a briefing on proactive disaster management in Pakistan and opened the session. Participants from federal and provincial government departments, UN agencies, international non-governmental organizations, national humanitarian organizations, disaster management authorities, Rescue 1122, and representatives from academic civil society organizations participated in the workshop, which acted as a collaborative platform. Improving knowledge of resilient urban planning techniques in the face of climatic extremes was the workshop's main goal. Participants had the chance to exchange knowledge, best practices, and takeaways from their specialized fields. The cooperative atmosphere of the gathering produced insightful conversations and established the framework for next projects with the goal of creating resilient urban environments. The workshop covered a number of important subjects, such as risk-sensitive spatial design, community involvement, climate change adaptation strategies, and the use of technology in urban planning to lessen the effects of climate-related issues. The incident made clear how crucial it is to tackle the complexity of urban resilience from a multi-stakeholder perspective. The interactive intellectual debate among the participants is expected to facilitate the creation of more effective policies for sustainable urban development as well as informed decision-making processes. The NDMA and PDMA Sindh reaffirmed their commitment to promoting cooperation and knowledge exchange as the threat posed by climate extremes grows. The fact that so many different stakeholders were able to successfully participate shows how committed everyone is to building urban environments that are resilient to the challenges presented by climate change. Mr. Imdad ullah Siddiqui, Director Operations, PDMA Sindh, was present at the closing ceremony and praised the NDMA's efforts to develop sustainable communities by enhancing stakeholder capacities and exchanging knowledge.
