The project

Real conversations.
Practical guidance.

Green Collar Pakistan is developing a practical climate careers guide for students. Our researchers speak with professionals across Pakistan to understand their work, skills, and entry routes, then turn those conversations into accessible guidance.

Our focus is the detail students often want to know: what the work feels like, how people found their way in, and what they would tell someone starting out.
