Karachi, September 06, 2022 (PPI-OT):The Pakistan Red Crescent-Sindh, with the support of the Kuwait Red Crescent Society, distributed a package of relief items to 160 internally displaced flood-affected families of UC Kamal Khan, taluka Juhi, District Dadu, on September 5, 2022. The Standard Non-Food Item (NFI) Kit package for a single-family included a tent, hygiene kit, kitchen set, seven blankets, two tarpaulin sheets, four mosquito nets, and two jerry cans.

Due to the inundation of the Indus River, many parts of Dadu district were submerged, making Juhi one of the most flood-affected areas of Sindh province. Pakistan Red Crescent and Kuwait Red Crescent are the first humanitarian organizations to distribute relief items to flood-afflicted families in Juhi. The flood victims appreciated the efforts of the Red Crescent and expressed hope that this will continue in their area.

The Kuwait Red Crescent Society delegation also visited the water purification plant installed by Pakistan Red Crescent Society at Kamal Khan Bridge near Chhandan Canal in Juhi, where flood victims are getting clean drinking water.

HRCP joins call for reparations, demands environmental justice from the global community 

Lahore, September 06, 2022 (PPI-OT):In light of the devastating floods that have affected at least 30 million people, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) joins the call for immediate reparations from the global community, particularly from high-emitting countries that are directly responsible for the climate crisis.

Already cash-strapped by record-high inflation rates and economic recessions, low-income groups in Pakistan have been pushed to breaking point by unprecedented floods throughout the region – with over 1,000 lives lost, and homes and livelihoods destroyed. Roads and health infrastructure, including basic health units and district hospitals, have also been submerged, posing a threat to those in urgent need of medical aid such as pregnant women, children and the elderly.

While there is much left to be desired in the government’s relief and rehabilitation plan for the flood-affected, it is clear that Pakistan is paying the price for a disaster that was preventable and, more importantly, not of its own doing. According to the World Bank and Asian Development Bank, Pakistan has historically accounted for only 0.4% of greenhouse gas emissions. Yet, it is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world. This imbalance indicates that all countries must join together and devise not just climate-change solutions, but also climate justice measures that keep the principles of equity and accountability at the forefront.

At present, Pakistan’s resources must be used to rehabilitate its people and rebuild its infrastructure, not to pay external debts. Providing climate change reparations is the bare minimum, for which global leaders must be held responsible.
