The strategy adopted in preparation of the PSDP 2011-12 focuses chiefly on infrastructural sectors. Education, health and potable safe drinking water have been paid due attention with a view to bring about positive increase in their representation in social indicators. Worth mentioning is the fact that involvement of the Elected Members of the Provincial Assembly has excessively been helpful in identification of schemes in the constituencies having followed a well thought criteria. This has ensured that no sector has remained dormant as far its development and allocation of funds is concerned.

Abstract: The Juniper forest reserve of Ziarat is one of the biggest Juniperus forests in the world. This study assessed the land-use changes and carbon stock of Ziarat. Different types of carbon pools were quantified in terms of storage in the study area in tons/ha i.e., above ground, soil, shrubs and litter. The Juniper species of this forest is putatively called Juniperus excelsa Beiberstein. To estimate above- ground biomass, different allometric equations were applied. -
Earthquake 2005: Some Implications for Environment and Human Capital
Munich Personal RePEc Archive Earthquake 2005: Some Implications for Environment and Human Capital Hamdani, Nisar Hussain and Shah, Syed Akhter Hussain Pakistan Institute of DEvelopment EConomics Islamabad Pakistan 2005 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/9519/ MPRA Paper No. 9519, posted 11 Jul 2008 04:58 UTC FJW University Rawalpindi , AJ&K Muzaffarabad and Higher Education Commission Islamabad-Pakistan Earthquake 2005: Some Implications for Environment and Human Capital Dr. Syed Nisar Hussain Hamdani* ` & Syed Akhter Hussain Shah** Loss of human capital in the form of skills and experiences is one of the outcomes of any natural hazard such as earthquake, drought, famine, and floods. Generally such losses have many implications for further growth of individuals, communities and nations. Disaster management and risk assessment has established a new need to constitute a paradigm of planning frameworks to develop modules for dealing with interactive rehabilitation and reconstruction activities. However, such management still lacks due attention in perspective of the remedy of human capital loss particularly in environmental management. This paper discusses the post-disaster situations with respect to human capital flow and stock losses and some of their implications and suggests some measures to apply in the earthquake-affected areas of Azad Kashmir and NWFP. Introduction A sustainable environment facilitates directly and indirectly to the strengthening of economic growth, socio-cultural demographic uplift, infrastructural buildup, positive external generation, and improving beyond preserving levels the ‘quality of life for humans’. Further it is complementary to economic growth for long run human development objectives as well, where it significantly affects human capital, its accumulation and the overall environment. -

CTI ENGINEERING INTERNATIONAL OYO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION The following foreign exchange rate is applied in the study: US$ 1.00 = PKR 88.4 PREFACE The National Disaster Management Plan (NDMP) is a milestone in the history of the Disaster Management System (DRM) in Pakistan. The rapid change in global climate has given rise to many disasters that pose a severe threat to the human life, property and infrastructure. Disasters like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, droughts, sediment disasters, avalanches, GLOFs, and cyclones with storm surges are some prominent manifestations of climate change phenomenon. Pakistan, which is ranked in the top ten countries that are the most vulnerable to climate change effects, started planning to safeguard and secure the life, land and property of its people in particular the poor, the vulnerable and the marginalized. However, recurring disasters since 2005 have provided the required stimuli for accelerating the efforts towards capacity building of the responsible agencies, which include federal, provincial, district governments, community organizations, NGOs and individuals. Prior to 2005, the West Pakistan National Calamities Act of 1958 was the available legal remedy that regulated the maintenance and restoration of order in areas affected by calamities and relief against such calamities. -
