dc.description.abstractThe main objective of the research was to generate knowledge on climate related hazards in the Indus Basin in Pakistan and their impact on marginalised communities, along with the factors that enable recovery following the floods. Prior research on hazards in Pakistan has demonstrated that vulnerability is constructed along class and gender inequalities and is embedded in everyday geographies of access to resources, state policies and social power. However, current infrastructure engineering and relief-oriented flood policy reflects little understanding of, or sensitivity to issues of social vulnerability.en
