From glacial melt to delta discharge — the conversation on Pakistan’s water future cannot wait.

At the Breathe Pakistan International Climate Change Conference 2026, Simi Kamal highlighted the urgent need for younger generations to become renaissance women and men, combining rigorous academics, scientific inquiry, research, and passionate activism to address the growing climate and water crisis.

As climate impacts intensify across the Indus Basin, collaborative dialogue and long-term governance are more important than ever.

Every drop of water that reaches a home, every harvest that feeds a family, every livelihood that stands strong, it is built on the backs of workers.

On this Labour Day, Hisaar Foundation honours every hand that labours for a more water-secure, food-secure, and just Pakistan.

Because dignity at work and dignity in life are inseparable.

We are saddened by the untimely demise of Dr. Pervaiz Amir, Economist and Council Member of Hisaar Foundation.

Dr Pervaiz Amir was a leading professional on water, food, agriculture and environment. He was well known in Pakistan and across the world. As a Council Member of Hisaar Foundation, Dr Amir guided our programming, participated in all our Karachi International Conferences and was Advisor to the University for Water Network since its inception. In recent years he was also associated with Pakistan Water Partnership and many other platforms on water and food sectors. We will miss his wisdom, commitment and dedication. May he rest in peace.
