During these floods, the ground communication systems were generally disrupted and information on flood extent and damage through ground reporting services was not available for taking timely decisions. To address the situation and to ensure continuous provision of current and timely information to the concerned stakeholder’s and decision makers satellite remote sensing and GIS technologies were extensively utilized. SUPARCO in collaboration with FAO started generating data on daily basis on flood extent, damage to households, infrastructure and crops besides undertaking detailed Damage Need Assessment (DNA). This fast track supply of information made it possible to reach out to affected and displaced masses for supply of food, medical care, relief, rehabilitation and follow up programs. In the aftermath of floods, monitoring of flood recession and ponding of water in the affected areas on decadal basis was also carried out for several months. All of this work was published by SUPARCO-FAO jointly in three reports (Reports 1 to 3).

  • Nchr Newsletter August-December 2017
    NCHR NEWSLETTER AUGUST-DECEMBER 2017 National Commission for Human Rights 5th Floor Evacuee Trust Complex, Agha Khan Road, Islamabad NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS Phone: 051-9216777, Fax: 051-9216772 PAKISTAN E-mail: [email protected], Website: nchr.org.pk AGUST-DECEMBER 2017 NEWSLETTER Chairman’s Message Pakistan is passing through a tumultuous time. In an unprecedented stage in our history we are plagued by a plethora of problems shrouding our future in an ominous cloud. Child abuse is rampant. Hate speech and extremism are festering, leading to forced conversions of minority communities in Tharparkar, Kalash, among others, and an increase in sectarian killings of Hazara Shias in Balochistan, and other religious minorities all over the country. One of the biggest challenges that Pakistan faces is enforced disappearances aimed at shutting down dissent or gaining personal leverage, with multiple accusations levied against state agencies or foreign interference. Synchronously to due process being overlooked, torture is being ignored. There exists no definition of torture in our penal code, a strict rebuke to the international treaties ratified by us. Pakistan has become a mini-killing field; it appears altruism is a victim. Though this may paint a bleak picture, we must remember that the context is unique in Pakistan’s 70 years. Civil society is more empowered than ever and fighting to hold accountable the institutions established to protect them, and the government is taking some measures to tackle these problems, with the establishment of the NCHR being one such step. NCHR is mandated to look into human rights issues faced by Pakistani citizens at home and abroad and to resolve them.

  • Urban Change: Scale and Underlying Causes
    URBAN CHANGE: SCALE AND UNDERLYING CAUSES The Case of Pakistan Text : Arif Hasan Tables : Reza Ali, Mansoor Raza, Masooma Mohib Page 1 of 160 Acknowledgements In February 1999, David Satterthwaite at the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) (UK) contacted me for preparing a study on Urban Change in Pakistan. This is one of eight studies which the European Union has funded. The study has taken three years to complete. The reason for this is that the Pakistan census data for the 1998 population and housing census was published only in October 2001, although census data for the various districts of Pakistan was available earlier. Also, it was a time consuming exercise converting the data of the various census since 1901 to the form it has in this report. However, tables, based on the districts and unpublished data, were sent to the IIED earlier this year. The detailed tables for Pakistan (unless specified otherwise at the bottom of the tables) have been prepared by Architect-Planner Reza Ali. He is currently working on a major study for the Urbanization Research Programme funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation and the Water and Sanitation Program-South Asia. The tables for Karachi have been prepared by Engineer Mansoor Raza and the report has been put together with the assistance of Architect Masooma Mohib and Israr Ahmad Rana. Financial support for this work has also been provided by the Asian Coalition for Housing Rights (ACHR) Bangkok.
