This Climate Resilient Punjab Vision and Action Plan 2024 is the first of its kind, marking a historic step in our commitment to addressing the challenges of climate change with unprecedented ambition and precision. Our vision for Punjab is clear and resolute: to create a future where environmental sustainability and economic prosperity go hand in hand.

Our approach is not just about responding to the immediate impacts of climate change, but about proactively shaping a resilient future for our state. Our policy actions focus on integrating resilience into every aspect of governance and development. We are pioneering initiatives that promote sustainable practices, enhance disaster preparedness, open avenues for green jobs, and drive innovation in climate adaptation and mitigation.

By harnessing the collective expertise and passion of our diverse stakeholders, we are laying the groundwork for a Punjab that thrives in harmony with its environment. This plan represents our collective effort to safeguard our natural resources and strengthen our communities. It is a roadmap to a future where Punjab stands as a beacon of resilience, innovation, and sustainability.

For the first time ever, the Climate Resilient Punjab Vision and Action Plan is backed up by full resource allocation as provided in the development budget of the province so that all the intended targets and actions are not compromised on account of the deprivation or shortage of funds.

Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication to this transformative journey. Together, we will build a Resilient Punjab that not only endures but flourishes in the face of change.

Warm Regards,

Maryam Nawaz Sharif

Chief Minister of Punjab
