ADA- ARCHITECTURE DESIGN ART

Meaningful conversations are the foundation of meaningful change.

ADA and CAC were pleased to engage in a thoughtful dialogue with Federal Minister for Climate Change, Dr. Musadik Masood Malik, on the urgent challenges and opportunities surrounding climate change, climate equity, climate mitigation, and climate justice, with a particular focus on Karachi and the wider Sindh region.

As cities continue to face the realities of a changing climate, these conversations become increasingly important in shaping informed, inclusive, and locally relevant responses.

ADA looks forward to extending this dialogue to other cities and regions across Pakistan, bringing together diverse voices to collectively imagine a more resilient and sustainable future.
