The Heinrich Böll Stiftung has been working in Pakistan from 1994 to 2019 with an office in Lahore, which was shifted to Islamabad in 2012. The main areas of work during this time were Ecology, Democratization as well as Peace and Security Policies. Since 2015 the program concentrated mainly on Resource Equity, Energy and Climate Change as well as Gender democracy. After 25 years of successful work with project partners in Pakistan, the office Islamabad has been closed with effect to 31st March 2019 due to ongoing problems with the registration process. This page presents some of the results of the work in the past years. There are a number of publications, articles, and reports about events conducted by Heinrich Böll Stiftung and its partner organizations covering the time from 2009 to 2019.
