With profound sadness, WWF-Pakistan mourns the passing of Syeda Perwin Babar Ali, whose life was marked by a deep commitment to philanthropy, institution-building and the betterment of Pakistan.

For decades, she stood beside Syed Babar Ali throughout his lifelong commitment to building institutions that have shaped Pakistan’s social, educational and environmental landscape. This journey notably included the establishment of WWF-Pakistan and Syed Babar Ali’s service as International President of WWF. Her quiet support and steadfast partnership formed an important part of this remarkable legacy.

For WWF-Pakistan, Perwin Babar Ali will be remembered not only as a philanthropist, but as a valued part of a family whose commitment helped nurture the conservation movement in Pakistan. At a time when environmental conservation was still an emerging idea in the country, her support contributed to a vision that recognised the importance of protecting Pakistan’s natural heritage for generations to come.

Most people never see a pangolin in the wild. Bahroz knows where to find them.

For nearly two decades, Bahroz has walked the mountains of Ismaila, building an intimate understanding of its landscape and wildlife. Today, that local knowledge supports pangolin conservation in the Mardan Pangolin Protection Zone.

His story is a reminder that effective conservation is strengthened when local knowledge, scientific monitoring and community commitment come together.

Pakistan’s cities are facing a growing climate paradox: extreme heat, followed by extreme rainfall and urban flooding.

But nature can be part of the solution. From wetlands and green spaces to natural drainage systems, nature-based solutions can help cities absorb water, reduce heat and build resilience to climate extremes.

Our thoughts are with the people and communities in facing the devastating floods, and with all those who have lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods. We stand in solidarity with those affected and with the communities working to respond and recover.

These floods are a devastating reminder of how vulnerable mountain communities can be to a changing climate. But the impacts of what happens in the mountains do not stop at national borders.

The connect countries, rivers, ecosystems and millions of lives across the region. As our changes, rising temperatures are altering glaciers, snow and mountain ecosystems, while intense rainfall and other extreme events are increasing risks for communities downstream.

This shared mountain system connects Nepal and Pakistan in profound ways. For , the rivers that sustain our communities, agriculture and economy are closely tied to the Himalayas and the wider mountain system.

The experience of communities in Nepal is therefore a reminder of the importance of building resilience across the region—not only through stronger early-warning systems and better monitoring of glaciers and river basins, but also through climate-resilient infrastructure and nature-based solutions that can help communities prepare for a more unpredictable climate.

The Himalayas connect us.

And in a changing climate, our future is connected too.

This World Water Week, we reflect on Pakistan’s journey towards stronger water stewardship.

What began as a conversation in 2013 has grown into a collaborative movement, bringing together businesses, government, communities and institutions to address shared water challenges through practical, locally rooted solutions.

Because securing our water future requires collective action.

Water is at the heart of our everyday lives, from the food we grow and the ecosystems we depend on to our homes, cities and industries.

Despite being essential to almost everything we do, freshwater is finite and increasingly under pressure.

This World Water Week, let’s recognise water for what it truly is: a precious resource we cannot afford to take for granted.
