Chitral is a beautiful remote valley in north-west Pakistan, nestled in Hindu Raj, Hindu Kush and Karakoram-Himalayan mountain ranges. In the absence of other fuel options, about 99% of Chitral’s population uses traditional firewood stoves for cooking. To alleviate the consequent burdens of deforestation, pollution and health hazards, my analysis explores the feasibility of implementing solar cookers in Chitral. I make an energy comparison, study the environmental impacts and determine the economic viability of this transition.

  • Assessment of the Status of Himalayan Lynx
    Din, J. U. & Nawaz, M. A. (2010). Status of the Himalayan Lynx in District Chitral, NWFP, Pakistan. The Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences 20: 17-22. Keywords: 5PK/chitral/depredation/Eurasian lynx/Himalayan lynx/human-carnivore conflict/ Lynx lynx/population/status The Eurasian lynx, listed Near Threatened in IUCN Red List, has one of the widest ranges of all cat species. Its Himalayan populations are known to be distributed in northern Pakistan, including Chitral district. However, actual status of the species and its real distribution limits are not known in Pakistan. This study provides an assessment of the status and distribution of the Himalayan Lynx in Chitral District, NWFP along with intensity of its conflicts with humans. Lynx occurrence was confirmed through public reports and livestock depredation cases were documented in five tehsils of the district. One hundred and sixty-four reports of lynx occurrence and 214 incidents of livestock depredation were recorded from 2001-2008 in an area of 14,850km2 of the district. Highest reports were from the Mastuj and lowest from the Torkhow tehsil. Livestock especially sheep lambs and goat kids were the major victims of lynx attack followed by poultry. This livestock loss means an economic hardship for the poor communities, thus, is a major source of human-cat conflicts. The prime threats to the existence of carnivores were retaliatory killing, loss of natural prey-base, loss of habitat, overpopulation, and lack of awareness and support.

  • Action Framework
    CHITRAL FLOODS 2015: RECOVERY NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND ACTION FRAMEWORK PROVINCIAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY KHYBER PAKHTUNKHWA ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In July – August, 2015 , coupled with the Glacier Lake Outburst Floods of high to very high intensity, caused human losses and intensive damages to public infrastructure, houses andotherbuildingsinvariousareasofChitralDistrict. In the aftermath of the , Provincial Disaster Management Authority Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (PDMA KP) initiated relief activities and emergency restoration in the district. The provision of emergency relief was a great support to the ected populations even though it was challengingtomaketherelieftimelyandcooperative. Given the r of the destructive , the relief assistance had been very to cover the emergency phase until the area was again hit by the earthquake in October, 2015. Moving beyond the restoration of the losses and damages, massive rehabilitation and reconstruction of critical infrastructure is necessary to help sustain the lives of the Chitral inhabitants. Risk of environmental hazard and climate change will continue to challenge the alreadyvulnerablecommunities. PDMA KP would like to acknowledge UNDP Pakistan, which has provided technical assistance in validating and analyzing the data, collected by line agencies and PDMA KP teams and further drafting the Recovery Needs Assessment and Action Framework. PDMA KP also highly appreciates the technical support of various line departments throughout the assessment processinChitral,especiallyduring datacollectionprocess. Again, the detailed damage assessment demonstrated in this report reveals the social and physical vulnerability of Chitral to the increasingly destructive hydro-meteorological disasters andclimatechangeimpact. The priority interventions listed in this document would hopefully be considered and transformed into immediate action that can help restore and support the lives of the ected populationinChitral.
