AGA KHAN AGENCY FOR HABITAT

Our goal is that people live in safe, sustainable, and resilient habitats with the opportunity to thrive, whether in a remote mountain village, a town, or a densely populated urban centre. We work with communities to help them prepare for and respond to natural disasters and the effects of climate change.


We also want people to have access to services and the opportunity to improve their life. We are there to help communities prepare for the worst; we are there to provide immediate relief after disaster strikes; and we are there to help build back better – and greener – while planning for a better future. The Aga Khan Agency for Habitat (AKAH) currently operates in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Syria, Pakistan and India, with plans to expand further in Central Asia and to East Africa.

“
As we all know, natural disasters are increasing in both frequency and severity because of climate change. They have become more devastating than in the past. Both in mountainous and coastal areas, effects are especially strong. ...The Aga Khan Agency for Habitat was created specifically to find ways to deal with these increasing threats. Its mission is to find innovative ways to address the threat of natural disaster and work to make communities resilient, building on the decades of experience of various AKDN agencies.

Prince Hussain Aga Khan, Geneva, May 2019
