JI's Road to Resilience report found psychological distress, from climate anxiety to chronic hopelessness, running through every community surveyed. For displaced families, transgender persons, and women in distress, the support systems are nearly non-existent.

Where you live in Pakistan increasingly determines how well you survive a climate shock.
Jinnah Institute's Road to Resilience report maps district-level resilience across the country, revealing a stark divide: communities with stronger digital access, energy options, and diversified assets bounce back. Those without them move out. The pattern is no longer incidental; it is already shaping internal migration. The report points to a way forward, identifying mid-ranking districts with the potential to absorb migration pressures if investments in infrastructure and civic services arrive in time.

At the launch of Jinnah Institute’s Road to Resilience report, Senator makes the case for communities as agents of change, not passive recipients of aid.

After over a year of field research across Pakistan’s provinces, the report finds that resilience remains unmapped and misunderstood and that communities are increasingly being left to navigate climate shocks on their own.

Cash transfers have been critical in cushioning households against Pakistan's compounding climate and economic shocks, but they were never meant to be the whole answer.

At the Road to Resilience launch, Ms. Sofia Shakil drew a distinction between passive and adaptive social protection, and explained why cash transfers must be the entry point, not the end point.
