Urban Flood Management & Climate Resilience Workshop

The University of Faisalabad was represented at a workshop on Urban Flood Management and Climate Resilience, organized by the Farmers Development Organization (FDO) in collaboration with GIZ and funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The workshop addressed climate-related urban challenges and approaches to strengthening resilience, including the Sponge City Model, integration of green and grey infrastructure, and sustainable rainwater management. The model aims to empower academic institutions and government bodies to develop urban systems capable of absorbing, storing, and reusing rainwater to mitigate heatwaves and enhance water security. The University's participation reflects its commitment to engaging with regional stakeholders on climate adaptation, sustainable urban development, and flood-risk management.
