SANGHAR:
The Sindh Community Foundation (SCF) has taken a crucial step toward enhancing emergency response and disaster preparedness in the Sanghar district by distributing emergency response and early warning kits to Disaster Management Committees (DDRC) in three Union Councils; Jam Jani, Jamrao84, and Tilla Shah of Taluka Jam Nawaz Ali of the district.
This initiative is part of SCF’s ongoing efforts to enhance the community’s capacity to mitigate the impact of future disasters under the Livelihood Recovery and Disaster Resilience project in flood-affected communities in Sanghar.
The event was attended by prominent officials, including Executive Director of SCF Javed Hussain, Focal Person of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) Sabir Hussain, SCF staff members, and more than 70 participants. The emergency kits were handed over to the key representatives from each Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) committee, which focuses on disaster risk reduction at the community level.
Speaking at the event, Javed Hussain emphasised the pressing challenges of climate change, particularly the devastating floods that have impacted Sanghar.
