European Union awards 2 M EUR to AKDN to help people in Gilgit-Baltistan cope with climate change
Following the launch of the Lives in Dignity Grant Facility and the first call for proposals in June 2021, the European Commission has awarded €2 million to the Aga Khan Foundation, Pakistan and the Aga Khan Planning and Building Services, Pakistan. The project addresses the impact of climate change on communities in the Immit Valley in Gilgit-Baltistan, northern Pakistan, a region that has high exposure to disasters and whose inhabitants have limited access to coping and adaptive strategies.
