First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study in District Badin, Pakistan, tests whether community-led programs can help households become more resilient to climate-related hazards like floods and storms. 1,800 adults from coastal villages will either receive a package of training on disaster preparedness, financial skills, and health awareness, or the same plus extra support from local health workers. Researchers will measure changes in household resilience and vulnerability over time to see which approach works best.
