The main objectives of this research are to assess the extent and the changes in the rate of deforestation in Mansehra since past 20 years. It also examine the impacts of deforestation on the Climate by establishing and mapping the magnitude and rates of land cover changes that had occurred in the study area. Landsat satellite images were taken as secondary data and they were foremost for the classification process. Remote sensing data together with GIS techniques have made it conceivable to display and oversee remotely detected information in various scales. The images taken for classification are Landsat 5 TM for the year 1998 and 2008 and from Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS TM for the year 2017.

    Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XXVII (2016) 35 Contextualizing Buddhism: Exploring the Limits of Buddhist Survivability in High Altitude Valleys in District Mansehra, Pakistan Shakirullah, Junaid Ahmad, Haq Nawaz Abstracts: Mansehra, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan, being located on the ancient Silk Route has played an instrumental role in the ancient trade, commerce and development of Buddhism as well. The region is a pivot between the China and Central Asia. Asoka recognized it in the 3rd century BC by carving 14 edicts here, and became central to the spread of Buddhism to Central Asia and China. It has been revealed that no Buddhist site existed at altitude of 2000 meter and above, equally not mentioned in Buddhist narratives. Recent archaeological explorations exposed hundreds of Buddhist sites in the region revealing the survivability and availability of Buddhist sites mainly on the trade routes. This paper systematically explores the existence of Buddhist monuments in Mansehra coping with natural and cultural landscapes. Keywords: Buddhist monuments, Explorations, Survivability The valleys of District Mansehra in Khyber 124; 1991: 152-163), and their absence in Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan, have been Mansehra. This paper systematically explores strategically located on the ancient Silk Routes the existence of Buddhist monuments in District and have been instrumental in the promotion of Mansehra and their relationships with natural trade, commerce and Buddhism in the past. The and cultural landscapes. We tentatively argue region derives its importance from its location that Buddhist monuments in District Mansehra, between the valleys of Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, were present in regions which were more China and Central Asia. King Asoka, who accessible and were on trade routes, and that the erected his 14 edicts at the crossroads at the city Buddhist did not explore and live in the of Mansehra (Shama 2002: 87-103), recognized extraordinarily beautiful and calm valleys the importance of this region in the 3rd century beyond 2000 meters above mean sea level.

  • A Case Study of Oxfam GB Response to Urban
    A CASE STUDY OF WINTER SAFETY NETS IN BALAKOT DISTRICT DURING THE PAKISTAN EARTHQUAKE OF 2005 CONTEXT (SHOCK AND PRE-EXISTING SITUATION - POVERTY, MALNUTRITION ETC.) Prior to the Pakistan earthquake of 2005 households in Balakot district were highly dependant on the market for their food needs, with only 30% of the requirements being met from own production. The market was the main source of food for most households, accounting for 70% of the requirements1. During the winter months, snowfall cuts access to the high altitude villages, and to mitigate against the winter period, a household’s ability to stock food is considered an important condition for ensuring food security. SITUATION ANALYSIS (RESULTS OF NEEDS ASSESSMENT + MARKETS + POLICY) An Oxfam GB food security and livelihood assessment2 of the earthquake-affected populations conducted in September 2006 showed that households usually plan their food stocks in October and November when essential food and non-food items are purchased in bulk to cover the months of isolation due to snowfall (January and February). The assessment revealed that expenditures were likely to be higher during the winter of 200/07 due to the effects of the earthquake, and it was predicted that in rural Balakot area households might be forced to compromise their food security over the winter months in order to meet their shelter winterisation needs. To mitigate against this, one of the recommendations was to provide winterisation vouchers that were to be exchanged with traders for required essential food and non-food items.
