LAHORE:WWF, the world’s leading independent conservation organisation, and a global biopharma company, have announced a major multi-million-pound partnership running to 2030.
They will work together with a focus on protecting and restoring freshwater ecosystems. Freshwater was fundamental to human health and the production of medicines and vaccines, yet the world’s freshwater resources are increasingly under stress. This poses a threat to the health of local communities and the resilience of businesses who rely on freshwater as part of manufacturing processes. Both the groups will work to use the power of nature to boost ecosystems, biodiversity and human wellbeing in key water-stressed river basins – the Indus River Basin and Delta in Pakistan and the Sutlej River Basin in India.
