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).

The project is aimed at to promote sustainable forest management in Pakistan’s western Himalayan temperate coniferous, subtropical broad leaved evergreen thorn (scrub) and riverine forest for biodiversity conservation, mitigation of climate change and securing of forest ecosystem service. This paper encompasses the study of socio-economic aspects of the salt range scrub forest landscape located in Chakwal and Jhelum Districts of the Punjab province, to develop a framework for sustainable management. The landscape represents an ecosystem that contributes largely to economic and welfare of the communities which depend, directly or indirectly on the exploitation of natural resources of this ecosystem. Hence, there is interrelationship between environment and socio- economic conditions prevailing in the area. They are affected by the natural environment with its various ecosystems which provide continues supply of goods and services. The stability of environment, sustainable forest management and welfare of communities are highly associated and correlated. The total area of landscape is 20,000 ha, out of which 7,859 ha is forested and owned by the state, and 6,672 ha in the outer landscape is private land, including cultivation (1,752 ha) and pastures and settlements, 5469 ha is communal land.

  • In Dera Ghazi Khan and Muzaffargarh Islamabad
    PRESS RELEASE N0: JPNEMPAK20-13 PRESS RELEASE Embassy of Japan organized “ODA media tour” in Dera Ghazi Khan and Muzaffargarh Islamabad: February 28th, 2020 On 26 February, the Embassy of Japan organized the “Official Development Assistance (ODA) Press Tour”, participated by three journalists from esteemed media organizations in Multan. The purpose of this tour was to promote understanding of Pakistani media on Japan’s assistance for development in Pakistan, visiting the actual project sites with the journalists. Furthermore, it aimed to build awareness that Japan contributes to Pakistan’s sustainable development*. This time, the group, composed of the journalists and Embassy officials, visited two project sites; the Project for Widening & Strengthening of National Highway 70 (N-70) and the Project for Construction of Primary School in Baseera, District Muzaffargarh, Punjab. Initially, the group visited a construction site of N-70 in Dera Ghazi Khan. N-70 is a main artery connecting Punjab and Balochistan and a section of 11.5 km near Fort Monroe is a traffic choke point with continuous steep slopes and sharp curves. Japan provided concessional loan (interest rate: 0.2%, repayment period: 40 years, grace period: 10 years) worth USD142 million to improve the above section of N-70, and its construction began in 2016. Japan’s advanced technology is utilized for this project, including box-shaped girders made of maintenance-free steel for 75 years and special embankment wall using light and strong materials. A single-truck road has been expanded to double-truck and sharp curves with a radius of 8 meters has been enlarged to 30 meters.
