Operationalizing the Sendai Framework in Flood‐Prone Pakistan
Climate‐induced flood risks pose a major challenge to sustainable development in Pakistan, particularly in the highly vulnerable province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Recurrent flood events continue to undermine social, economic, and environmental systems, highlighting persistent difficulties in translating the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) into effective, context‐sensitive practice. This study examines the implementation barrier…
Gendered impacts of climate displacement
This study investigates the gendered aspects of post-displacement challenges in resettled communities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, an area that is becoming more susceptible to climate disasters. Through a qualitative approach guided by vulnerability theory, data from 25 key informant interviews reveal a stark divergence in how men and women experience and prioritise recovery. These results showed that men participants predominantly emphasised…
Exclusion and Exposure
Climate change affects all individuals, regardless of wealth, social class, or religious background, though its impacts and adaptation strategies vary. While existing literature examines climate change adaptation based on farming categories, geographic regions, and cropping systems, limited research explores how social class shapes adaptation responses. For instance, in Pakistan, like other South Asian nations, there is a social ranking of castes…
Health and livelihood impacts of flood hazards on internally displaced persons in Pakistan
Investigating the relationship between poverty and environmental degradation
A gendered analysis of perception and adaptation to climate change among High Mountain farmers
A comprehensive assessment model for livelihood vulnerability using fuzzy Topsis technique
Disaster risk reduction education (DRRE) in elementary education of Pakistan
Climate change and rural livelihoods
Agricultural extension programs promote regenerative land management practices by increasing farmers' awareness of land use, climate risks, and adoption of adaptation practices for sustainable livelihoods. This study focuses on the perceptions of communities that participate in extension programs and those that do not, regarding climate change risks and livelihood sustainability in Pakistan's Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region. The findings indica…
Does ICT-based farm advisory improve farmers' adaptation to climate change? Evidence from Pakistan
In the face of climate uncertainties, farmers need advice on adaptation measures to manage climate risk in an efficient and user-friendly way. This study takes the case of a major cropping zone of Punjab province, Pakistan, which is reported among the climate-susceptible regions, to explore farmers’ preferred ways of agricultural advisory and farmers’ climate change adaptation measures. We also analyze the interrelation between different advisory…

Factors associated with prevalence of diarrhea among children under five years of age in Pakistan
Covid-19 risk perception and coping mechanisms
Farm households' perceptions and adaptation strategies to climate change risks and their determinants
Formal institutions' role in managing catastrophic risks in agriculture in Pakistan
How Do Individual-Level Characteristics Influence Cross-Domain Risk Perceptions Among Chinese Urban Residents
While previous studies show that risk perceptions vary across populations and domains, there is little empirical evidence on the interplay between individual-level characteristics and risk domains in shaping perceived social risks in a country such as China. This study examines empirically the effects of individual-level characteristics on risk perceptions across different domains. Based on a large sample survey data from 31 provincial capitals i…

Farmers’ awareness and perception of climate change impacts
The agricultural sector is the main source of rural households’ food and revenue in Niger, and it contributes approximately 43% to the national GDP. However, there are several constraints to the sector’s development, including negative impacts of climate change. To mitigate these impacts, farmers implement a range of technical strategies. The extent of farmer’s awareness and perceptions of climate change impacts influences these strategies and he…
