In response, the European Commission's Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI) swiftly mobilized resources to support recovery and rebuild resilience in the affected areas.
The project aimed at restoring safety, dignity, and resilience for the flood-affected population. One of the key achievements was the construction of 250 safe, protected, and resilient homes, designed to withstand climate challenges.
Among the many beneficiaries is Noor Jahan, a 70-year-old resident of Dadu, Sindh. After losing her home to the floods, Noor Jahan and her family were left vulnerable and uncertain of their future. Today, they live in a secure, weather-resistant home that provides them with safety and dignity.
This project is a testament to our commitment to supporting vulnerable communities in times of crisis. By focusing on sustainable, resilient recovery, the initiative has not only helped rebuild lives but also strengthened the ability of these communities to face future challenges.
Promoting Resilience, Restoring Dignity
The shelters, designed to be climate-resilient, provide a long-term solution to the housing challenges in the region, ensuring that families like Noor Jahan's can live with security and peace of mind. By integrating sustainability into recovery efforts, the FPI has ensured that its support reaches beyond immediate relief, fostering lasting resilience in Sindh's flood-affected communities.
This project exemplifies how international cooperation and swift, strategic action can change lives for the better, promoting recovery and resilience where it is needed most.
