    PAKISTAN Information Sheet © International Affiliate of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics 2020 Credentialing Verification Authorities: Though there is a visible strong demand from various professional groups for a national council for accreditation of Nutrition related education program and registration of nutritionist, there is no governmental credentialing body for Dietetics in Pakistan as yet. Rana Liaquat Ali Khan Government College of home Economics Karachi, (RLAK CHE) initiated a program for establishing criterial for human nutrition professionals in 2008. Pakistan Nutrition and Dietetic Society also joined and shared professional expertise in the project. Together they established a qualification and test-based criteria for giving RD certificate in 2010 and PNDS has been holding RDN (Registered Dietitian Nutritionist) exam all over Pakistan giving certificate for period of 2 years on the basis of that criteria all. Renewals are either made on the basis of Continuing Nutrition Education (CNE) hours or to reappear in exam if unable to complete required CNE hours. As number of institutions granting degrees in nutrition has markedly increased, graduates sometimes get certificate of eligibility to work as dietitian or certification as Registered Dietitians form other institution/organizations as well and there are strong emergent demands from multiple groups for a National Nutrition Council and Government regulated licensing of Nutritionists-Dietitians.

Project Background and Context Problem Statement, Need for the Project and Proposed Approach Reducing the impact of flooding and droughts is becoming one of the top priorities of the government of Pakistan1. The government has requested UN-Habitat, through its Adaptation Fund designated authority to develop a project that addresses these adaptation challenges in line with the National Water Policy 2018, the National Flood Pro- tection Plan 20162 and the National Disaster Management Plan 2012. Even though flood impacts are often severe in urban areas3, a national approach to address this situation in cities doesn’t exist in Pakistan. This is critical, considering that 36.4% of Pakistan’s population lives in urban areas4. Existing approaches to deal with flood and drought impacts are not comprehensive and rainwater harvesting techniques are rarely used.
