The U.S. Department of State awarded a $329,885 Project Grant under the Public Diplomacy Programs for Afghanistan and Pakistan (CFDA 19.501) to Indiana University to focus on addressing the challenges of poor air quality in Pakistan. The project aims to enhance the capacity of local Pakistani academia to adopt data-driven approaches to address climate change issues, particularly air quality problems. Indiana University is issuing fixed-amount subawards to Comsats University Islamabad, Linked Things (Pvt) Ltd., and Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology to support the effective implementation of planned activities, which include faculty and student exchanges and training programs to foster long-term research collaborations between U.S. and Pakistani institutions. This collaboration aims to create opportunities for future joint research efforts to tackle a broader range of climate change challenges impacting the region.
