Islamabad : Federal Minister for Climate Change and Environmental Coordination, Dr. Musadik Malik, met with Ms. Coco Ushiyama, Country Director of the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), to discuss climate-aligned collaboration under the WFP–Government of Pakistan five-year cooperation framework.
The meeting focused on stunting prevention in Pakistan, with particular attention to the “4Cs”—climate change, conflict, COVID-induced downturns, and corruption—as key drivers of malnutrition.
Both sides agreed on the need for anticipatory, outcome-driven programmes that address stunting through climate adaptation and resilience-building.
The Minister emphasized joint ventures that translate climate policy into grassroots impact, particularly in vulnerable and food-insecure regions.
The meeting reinforced a shared commitment to integrating climate resilience into Pakistan’s national nutrition and development strategies.
