The objective of International Housing EXPO-2022 is to revitalize our urban economy
and create more opportunities and technological innovation to take our Housing and
Construction Industry to the next level. We have seen countries which have boosted
their economy by taking initiatives of stimulating inward investments through Real
Estate projects, enterprising builders and developers.
Pakistan is at high risk from climate change and natural disasters. Events such as
earthquakes and flooding have disturbed the urban areas of the country for years
and have regularly swept away the foundations on which the lives of hundreds of
thousands of families were built. Natural disasters interfere with economy and
destroy infrastructure, resulting in a disruption of livelihoods and normal services
specially houses/ buildings. Floods have been disruptive, leading to widespread
collapse of infrastructure of urban areas. Recently, Pakistan is also facing one of the
worst flood disasters in the country. One-third of the country is under water. The lack
of urban planning and climate change are main causes of heavy damages. Ministry of

The world is changing rapidly; an uneven urbanization is main core issue of the world.
Because of unequal urbanization these countries are given more attention to the
special planning. The development of rural and urban areas and unplanned projects
need proper strategic planning. In recent floods, many cities and its infrastructure has
been washed away. It is about time that we must redesign and plan these cities
afresh through proper planning and well-designed infrastructure. Without reforms
and urban planning, high and sustainable growth is not achievable
