An urban forest at the Sultan Mahomed Shah Aga Khan School in Karimabad, Karachi was inaugurated by the Vice Chancellor of NED (Nadirshaw Eduljee Dinshaw) University of Engineering and Technology. The forest, which covers an area of 48m², contains 154 trees of 14 different species planted in close proximity and all native to the region. The forest has been planted with the technical expertise of the NED University and the generous support of the SMS Aga Khan School’s graduating class of 1986.
