CDPR hosted a workshop on the 1st of December 2021 which explored how air quality in Pakistan can be improved. The goal broadly was to generate a discussion on key issues of concern, formulate a research agenda around how environmental costs of low air and water quality (and the consequent health issues) increase vulnerability faced by low-income households and pushes them down the poverty ladder, and discuss how government initiatives, such as the Kamyab Pakistan Programme (KPP), that aims to improve livelihood for the poor, can be made “green” and overarching interventions that strengthen low income households’ ability to manage economic vulnerability. Participants included representatives from government and non-governmental institutions, and academic researchers.
