Abstract

There is a need to strengthen the capacity of the Ministry of Climate Change (MOCC) so that it can support adaptation actions by other federal ministries and the provincial governments now responsible within their jurisdictions. Significant engagement, capacity building, knowledge sharing, institutional strengthening, mainstreaming, and implementation remain to be undertaken for Pakistan to adapt to climate change—particularly at the provincial level, given the recent devolution of responsibilities under the 18th Amendment to Pakistan’s constitution. Most of the projects identified focus on freshwater and watershed management. This report is part of a series prepared for the Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia (CARIAA).
