Also available in:
No results found.Pakistan is among the ten countries most affected by extreme weather events despite its very low carbon footprint, according to the Global Climate Risk Index 2021 and Climate Watch. Frequent natural disasters negatively impact the agricultural sector and household livelihoods, and push thousands of people into poverty and hunger. In 2022, intense rainfall in monsoon season caused severe flooding across Pakistan and impacted a large number of people and households including deaths of people, damage to infrastructure (including roads, dams, buildings, electricity poles etc.), destruction of agricultural area and pushed millions of people into poverty and hunger. Since the beginning of the rainy season, it is reported that over 735 000 livestock have perished, and about 2 million acres of crops have been adversely impacted (UNCT, 2022). -

The Government of Nepal declared 71 municipalities across 20 districts as disaster crisis or emergency zones due to the severe impact of landslides and floods. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations' (FAO) Data in Emergencies (DIEM) conducted a DIEM-Impact assessment to understand the impact of the floods on the affected population, infrastructure and essential services from 17 to 24 November 2024. FAO established DIEM-Impact to provide a granular and rapid understanding of the impact of large-scale hazards on agriculture and agricultural livelihoods using a variety of assessment methodologies, including primary and secondary information, remote sensing technologies, and FAO’s damage and loss methodology. DIEM-Impact presents a regularly updated and accessible state of food insecurity in fragile environments, and helps underpin FAO's programming based on evidence. -
