THATTA – In a powerful show of solidarity and climate leadership, the Danish Ambassador to Pakistan visited the historic city of Thatta to launch the Sustainable Climate Resilient Inclusive Pathways (SCRIP) project, a joint initiative between the Government of Denmark and the Aga Khan Foundation.
This strategic partnership represents Denmark’s unwavering commitment to supporting the world’s most climate-vulnerable communities—those who face the harshest consequences of rising temperatures, failing crops, and increasingly devastating floods.
“Climate change hits hardest where communities are least equipped to cope,” said the Danish Ambassador. “Through the SCRIP project, Denmark is proud to stand with the people of Thatta and surrounding regions, helping them adapt, build resilience, and safeguard their future.”
Thatta, a region with rich cultural heritage, has seen firsthand the destructive impact of climate change. The SCRIP initiative is designed to empower local communities with sustainable tools and strategies—focusing on disaster preparedness, climate-smart agriculture, water conservation, and women-led development models.
The visit and project launch come as part of Denmark’s broader green diplomacy and climate action agenda, which focuses not only on reducing emissions globally, but also on strengthening local capacities where the need is most urgent.
Through this collaboration, Denmark is not just delivering aid—it is delivering hope and opportunity.
“Real climate action means showing up,” the ambassador added. “It means building trust, investing in local solutions, and working together for a greener, fairer, and more resilient world.”
With the SCRIP project now underway, Thatta becomes a symbol of what’s possible when international cooperation meets local innovation. Denmark’s leadership in global climate resilience has once again proven that bold partnerships can bring real change to those who need it most.
