  UNDP is launching a new initiative to promote green jobs for youth and women in Pakistan. In order to ensure that the project is informed by previous best practices and ongoing work in this field by development partners, private sector and communities, and is also future-proofed by taking into account possible upcoming developments and disruptions in this area, we wish to do a horizon scan. The result of horizon scanning will help the project team better plan on how to exploit or mitigate these changes and secure the most positive outcome for the project.
