Mosque reflects 3core characteristics; community ownership, trust & sustainability that are essential to make any devpt initiative a success. It can play role in achieving SDGsGoals; poverty reduction, hunger, health, education, gender equality, water&sanitation & climate change.
Alhamdulillah - glad to share that my book 'The Role of the Mosque in Building Resilient Communities' will be out in January next year. The book shows the contributions of the mosque as a physical, spiritual and social place in disaster risk reduction and COVID-19 pandemic.
Very proud of my @UNDP_Pakistan colleagues for their great achievements in the past year! Today we handed out Staff Recognition Awards in many categories including #Leadership, outstanding achievement, #COVID19 related support, support to #OneUN & more!
