Islamabad: Pakistan’s efforts to recover from devastating floods are systematically tracked and highlighted in the latest update from the ESWG Flood Recovery Monitoring Dashboard, providing a comprehensive view of the ongoing work and future targets set for 2022-2024.

According to United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund, the dashboard showcases various key performance indicators that reflect both the reach and impact of the recovery efforts across Pakistan. As of September 2024, significant strides have been made in several areas such as education, infrastructure, and direct aid. The dashboard outlines that out of the targeted 10,000 schools, 443 have been repaired and 16,694 teachers have been trained, enhancing the educational landscape in flood-affected areas. Additionally, 730,430 children have benefited from educational supplies, with a significant focus on girl students, who constitute 44.3% of the recipients.

In terms of infrastructure, the report indicates a commendable progress in toilet construction with 1,184 new facilities built, improving sanitation conditions for thousands. The overall reach of the program extends to nearly 800,000 children who have received various forms of direct aid, from school repairs to educational materials.

The province-wise breakdown shows that Punjab leads with the highest number of beneficiaries, followed closely by Sindh and Balochistan, reflecting a targeted approach to aid distribution based on the severity of flood impacts and population needs.

This detailed monitoring not only underscores the ongoing commitment to flood recovery but also sets the stage for continued support and development initiatives aimed at building a resilient future for Pakistan’s flood-affected communities.
