Population Council researchers in Pakistan are rapidly responding with data analysis to help optimize response, relief, and rehabilitation.
Our 2022 Pakistan Floods special series highlights visualizations from this research. We will continue to update the series with new research as the situation evolves.
Data for the analyses come from the sixth Population and Housing Census of Pakistan, Sindh Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey, and spatial data from UNOSAT including NASA-based satellite imagery.
