1. Message from Mr. Zahid Hamid Minister for Climate Change
Government of Pakistan Ministry of Climate Change is cognizant of
the fact that mass awareness on climate change and environmental
issues is both crucial and instrumen- tal for sustainable
development. Climate Change is one of the most important aspects of
environmental governance and it is a top priority for the Ministry
to raise awareness of environmental problems among all elements of
society, particularly youth. In doing so, I strongly believe that
the participation of youth will be of immense value. I would like
to appreciate the efforts of PEDA Internation- al for organising
the stories contest to engage youth in the climate change
discourse. Ministry of Climate Change encourages collaboration with
civil society organizations to address the issues of climate change
and to enhance awareness of the people especially youth regarding
adaptation and mitigation aspects of climate change, which have a
strong impact on sustainable development. 5
