To stress the criticality of disaster risk reduction, the Aga Khan Agency for Habitat (AKAH) celebrated the Disaster Risk Reduction Week across Pakistan from 8 to 14October. AKAH has successfully led community driven humanitarian initiatives to save innocent lives and infrastructure, particularly for communities living in the rural mountainous areas in Pakistan since 1998. Over two decades, AKAH has designed disaster risk plans and formed community-led organisations in over 750 rural and urban settlements to help them prepare and adapt against disasters and respond independently in the event of a disaster.
