Community Satisfaction from Government-Led Emergency Response and Recovery to Pakistan Climate Catastrophe of Flood 2022 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's vulnerability to climate-related disasters was tragically highlighted by the 2022 floods, affecting millions. This study aims to investigate community satisfaction with government-led emergency response and recovery efforts in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining surveys and In-depth Interviews. Despite government claims, the results of this study show significant gaps in government support, specifically in early warning communication, protective evacuation, damages compensation, and lack of inclusiveness in service delivery to the affected population. Financial constraints, political instability, and limited technical capacity to design and implement robust recovery plans hindered effective response. The study highlights the need for enhanced disaster management strategies, community-centered emergency response, and improved government accountability. Findings inform policy reforms and provide valuable insights for disaster risk reduction and climate resilience initiatives in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.
