The second edition of the Breathe Pakistan International Climate Change Conference concluded in Islamabad on Thursday after two days of discussions on climate resilience, adaptation, energy transition, water security, urban planning, agriculture, climate finance and equitable policymaking.

The conference brought together policymakers, parliamentarians, international organisations, climate experts, corporate leaders, academics, development partners and civil society representatives to examine Pakistan's climate vulnerabilities and the reforms needed to strengthen climate resilience.

Across both days, speakers stressed that climate change was no longer solely an environmental issue, but a broader economic and development challenge requiring coordinated implementation, regional cooperation and long-term planning.

Day 2 of the conference focused on Global South cooperation, climate-smart cities, clean energy transition, private-sector climate leadership, climate equity and provincial climate initiatives.
