| Summary: | Between June and September, 2025, floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 and affected 7 million people in total, including 3.5 million who have been displaced. Crops and harvests have also been destroyed, livestock lost, and food insecurity and malnutrition are rising among affected populations. This blog post argues that locally led, nationally integrated, and internationally supported efforts are needed to simultaneously address humanitarian relief, sustainable development, and social cohesion to mitigate the impact of future disasters. Only by moving beyond short-term recovery to long-term resilience can Pakistan's cycle of crisis and reconstruction be broken.
