Solidarites International (SI) is an international non-governmental organization that works to assist those whose lives and health are threatened and to fulfil their basic needs, namely water, food, and shelter. After responding to emergencies by supplying assistance directly to those in need, Solidarites International helps vulnerable people until they regain their livelihoods and the autonomy needed to tackle the challenges of an uncertain future with dignity. Solidarities International has been working in Pakistan on and off since 2080. In brief, in 1980, SI started the Afghanistan cross-border response and then shifted to Afghanistan. It resumed operation in the 2005 earthquake response for a couple of years. Again, it resumed the operation in the 2010 flood response and remained in the country until 2016. However, it was highly realized in the aftermath of the 2022 flood to join the response again. SI mainly responded in Sindh Province in partnership with different donors. Based on the lesson learnt and considering Pakistan’s fragile context, SI strategies to work on a longer-term basis. Water and food security remain the priority areas focusing on climate change adaptation (CCA), environmental considerations, disaster risk reduction, preparedness, and resilience.
